When COVID-19 hit, it forced a lot of us to think outside the box, and that’s exactly where our Canadian athletes went — outside!

Tyson Langelaar is a long track speed skater for Team Canada. His teammates and him have had to get creative in where they are training.

His pick for best natural rink is Gap Lake in Alberta.
