I’ve never sat down and watched short track skating mainly because I’ve never had any reason to but when you think about it, the women’s discipline is guaranteed to be full of fit bodies in tight fitting one pieces.
Untapped resource? Possibly so given the look of Allison Baver.
The 30 year old is a long time member of the US Winter Olympics team and was ranked as high as third in the world in 2005 and 2006.
At 11, Allison competed in the National Roller Skating Championships in Philadelphia, and in high school, she was a soccer player and cheerleader. `
She did not take up speedskating until her junior year of high school.
At the 2006 Winter Games in Turin she placed seventh in the 500 metre event and was part of the team which claimed bronze in the 3000 metre relay event at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.
In 2009 she suffered a bad leg fracture in a collision with teammate Katherine Reutter during a race in Bulgaria.
Not just a pretty face, she holds a bachelor’s degree in marketing and management from Penn State University and a MBA from the New York Institute of Technology.
Most importantly, according to her official website, she is single.
Form an orderly queue please.
