Justin’s family used to live in an apartment in Jersey City, where just outside there was an outdoors ice rink. They would go on weekends for open skate sessions, and he quickly fell in love with the feeling. After days working in the city, Justin’s dad recreationally speed skated in the evenings at a club in New York City, Flushing Meadows Speedskating.

He could never find anything quite like it. “Coach Steve actually met me during this time, since he was doing legal work in New York at the time and would help out at the club.”
