Honoured Member Elizabeth Manley talks about how she overcame her depression and struggles before the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics and eventually rediscovered her passion for figure skating.

The very first routine I ever remember seeing on TV was Liz Manley's long program at the Olympics, and I've been a skating fan ever since that moment. She instilled in ME a love for the sport that is still here today!

Liz, your LP routine at the Calary 88 is still one of the best ..it was a pleasure watching 😊

This American loves Canada! 🍁 I watched Liz Manley's 1988 program, where she won the Silver Medal. Deserved! In fact, the 1988 Calgary Olympics were my all time favorite (former Atlanta Olympic Committee member here)!!

I grew up watching you skate and never knew you suffered from depression. I wish you the best and I want to thank you for your skating! I love to skate too!

Ms. Manley - My husband & I will never forget your numerous, entertaining programs which you performed with sooo much zip. I, especially, like the "Time Of My Life" Exhibition number which, unfortunately, I can't seem to find on You Tube. But I enjoy those which are available. Thank you for working through your depression issues (we have ALL been there) and staying in the sport for as long as you did. Best Wishes to you.
