'I want race day to feel like every day, so my body is ready to go like it's just another day at the office.'
on Feb. 13 at the 2022 Winter Olympics. POPSUGAR asked Jackson how it feels to be the first Black woman to win a speed-skating medal at the Olympics?"To be honest, it's all still sinking in, and I think it will take a while," Jackson shared."But I can say I'm humbled to have been the first at something, and I hope many others will follow their own dreams, whatever those may be."Jackson hasn't been speed skating on ice that long, only since about 2017.
"I love the speed. That's the hook for me," Jackson said. It's a difficult sport, and Jackson said the greatest challenge is having the patience to continue to improve the technique of skating."To skate perfectly, which I have yet to accomplish, every movement needs to be very precise. That takes a lot of patience to develop," she said.Jackson shared that she trains about 50 weeks per year.
Off the ice, it's a lot about keeping up with flexibility to prevent injury and proper diet to both stay healthy and to speed recovery. Jackson said she drinks , because the tart cherries help with her recovery and also help her sleep better — she even requested to have some available at the Games."I try to keep everything the same on race day as it is on practice days: same sleep schedule, same kind of breakfast, same off-ice warmup, same on-ice warmup," Jackson said,"I want race day to feel like every day, so my body is ready to go like it's just another day at the office.
