Eric Lamaze

Eric Lamaze is a Canadian professional horse jumper, and he won several medals in the 2008 Olympics for jumping including gold. I think that he has a lot of perseverance, that’s because just like a singer or actor he has to practice, train, and work hard to get to his goal (being a professional hunter jumper). And now, he has been named the #1 Horse jumper in the entire world! He has a long story including living in a troubled home, dropping out of high school and being banned from jumping twice because of a cocaine problem. But he got through all of that and still got to his dream. Many people have perseverance and it is something that should be used all of the time. That is why I made my Glog Vs Blog on him (link).

What is perseverance

There are many people that have become famous or popular because they had so much perseverance. Anybody from an actor to something like a race car driver has to have perseverance for what they do. For example, I think that Eric Lamaze has a lot of perseverance. That is because he is the #1horse jumper in the world, that would take lots of hard work to get to and he never gave up, and that is pretty much what perseverance is all about. You know that I think Eric Lamaze has perseverance but now I want to know, who do you think has a lot of perseverance? What do they do? Why do you think they have so much perseverance?
