Clara Hughes has one more shot to make Canadian history


39-year old Clara Hughes is already the greatest Canadian Olympian ever and a tremendous athlete. She has collected six Olympic medals two earned on the bike - a bronze in the road race and another bronze in the time trial at the Atlanta Games in 1996 - the other four earned in speedskating in the Winter games.

She is done with speedskating and on Wednesday she will rap up her Olympic cycling career as well. But if she can finish on the podium on Wednesday she will exceed former speedskating teammate Cindy Klassen for the most Olympic medals won by a Canadian athlete.

A nice way to finish your career.

No matter how it ends I tip my hat to Clara.
