This thread is totally devoted to J.R. Celski, and is intended to be an archive of his skating career - as well as a place to chat about his accomplishments and encourage him as he pursues his goals both on and off the ice.
If you have any articles, photos, links and news about J.R. (past or present), we'd love to see them!

JR in second place after the 3000m at US Championships in St Louis, 2008. Jordan decides to smack Apolo around with a pillow for good measure, while JR seems happy to be out of pillow fight range. JR places second at the Senior US Championships in St Louis, Missouri 2008. What a great season JR is having!

(Photo by Jerry Search). Flying JR during the 500m (part one) at US Nationals 2008. Apolo's fall starts the dominos in motion. Travis ends up in the boards as well during the melee. (That sure looks like it hurt, doesn't it?)
