Shane Dobbin

Selected for his third Olympic Games, Shane was a member of the Speed Skating Team Pursuit with Peter Michael and Reyon Kay at PyeongChang 2018.  The team had an outstanding performance reaching the finals where they were just pipped for a medal and placed 4th.

Less than two years out of retirement Dobbin focused on the Team Pursuit event where they had achieved notable results including three World Cup podiums and a silver medal at the 2017 World Championships. Leading into the Games,  the Pursuit team had a world ranking of second at the 2017/2018 World Cup.

Aged 38 at the PyeongChang Games, Dobbin proved that age isn't an obstacle as long as you have a passion and desire to achieve your goals.

Shane also competed at the Vancouver 2010 (5,000m) and the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games (10,000m, 5,000m).
