Clara Hughes

Clara Hughes was born September 27, 1976. She was born in Winnipeg Manitoba. Clara currently lives in Glen Sutton Quebec. Clara is the only Canadian and 4th athlete in history to be in the summer and winter Olympics. She is a cyclist and speed skater. She has won 2 bronze summer Olympics medals 1 bronze medal at the winter Olympics and many more. She has also won things out side of sports such as the Order of Canada, the Order of Manitoba, an Honorary Doctor of Law and the sports and community awards. Clara Hughes has said she will be retiring from the Olympic Games. After learning all of these interesting things about her, I am sad that I will not see her compete again.
