Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?
My name is Barrett Martineau and I have been around sport my whole life. Born in Calgary in 1991, I’ve been training as an athlete since I was 7 years old. I am currently 25, and I compete for Canada on the National Skeleton team. From the moment I first sped down the Skeleton track at Canada Olympic Park, I fell in love with the sport and knew I wanted to devote myself to training, with the goal of standing on the Olympic podium one day as a Skeleton champion. Though I started Skeleton in 2010, my intense training and Olympic dream started long before then. In 1998, at the age of seven, I began training in Ski Jumping/Nordic Combined. Those 12 years as a Ski Jump/Nordic Combined competitor shaped me into the athlete and person I am today, and provided me with the competitive edge that fuels my dedication, determination and drive to be the best. Since my skeleton journey started years ago, I’ve received many athletic accolades and will enter the 2018 season as Canada’s #1 ranked Skeleton athlete. Over the next year, I will continue my pursuit of excellence by representing Canada in the World Cup tour, all while fighting my way to the Olympics in Pyeongchang, Korea 2018. Ultimately it is my goal to represent Canada in a competitive manner at the Olympic Games in 2018. Despite these athletic accolades, I would have to say the achievement I am most proud of is my partnership with Classroom Champions. Classroom Champions pairs K-8 classrooms with athletes training for their national Olympic or Paralympic team. Having the opportunity to meet these students in person after mentoring them throughout the school year was such a rewarding experience. I try to inspire honesty, integrity and the will to win - but also, how to accept defeat gracefully and to always give back to your community. I talked to them about leadership, teamwork and how to set goals. These are skills that I know are crucial in whatever they decide to work toward in life and what so many of my coaches, and mentors have instilled in me. I have the talent and ability to get me to the 2018 Olympic Games; yet, with no funding whatsoever, I lack the resources to take me to the top of the podium. Unfortunately, talent and dedication are not enough. I am one of the ONLY team Canada athletes ranked top 10 in the world who is completely self-funded. Please partner with me on my pursuit of excellence and support me on the road to success. Together we can put Canada on the podium!
