Olympic silver medallist Sara Renner is pregnant but the cross-country skier, with husband Thomas Grandi by her side, told reporters Monday she fully expects to represent Canada at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. And she likes her chances at winning the gold. I'll think this is easy, she chuckled.
Thirty kilometres? No problem - I went through child birth. Renner intends to take next year off before returning to competition.
She's not worried about the challenges of being both a mom and a competitive athlete. I think you can do two things at once very well. I think you can be a mother and you can be an athlete and there are a few women who have done it in cross-country skiing, Renner said.
