I had a wonderful, beautiful day today in Happy Valley (State College, PA) for the Penn State game and therefore feel inspired to post this resplendent performance by the one and only, and my hero, Michelle Kwan. Michelle's 1998 Nationals short program to the music of Rachmaninoff, in which she earned 8 perfect scores of 6.0 for presentation is a signature piece for the 9-time National Champion. Michelle's skating is full of ease and joy. It's graceful and delicate yet powerful and controlled. This performance is pure, majestic, and infused with heart. I remember watching this on television when I was in 8th grade and being moved to tears. Truly transcendent!!
Thank you for giving us this beautiful, memory, Michelle!
