Heather Bergsma Richardson

High Point native and speedskating World Cup champion Heather Richardson Bergsma with her husband, Jorrit, in her hometown.

Heather Bergsma Richardson

Heather Richardson Bergsma: 'I’m starting to feel at home in the Netherlands. At first, I missed being here all the time. That surprised me. I didn’t think it would be that way.'

Jorrit Bergsma, Heather's husband: 'With our team, when we’re skating or when we’re training, afterward we would always have coffee and sit and talk. In the beginning, Heather couldn’t understand and she felt left out.'

Heather Bergsma during a 1,500 meters race in South Korea in February.

Heather Bergsma Richardson

High Point native and speedskating World Cup champion Heather Richardson Bergsma with her husband, Jorrit, in her hometown.

Heather Richardson Bergsma: 'I’m starting to feel at home in the Netherlands. At first, I missed being here all the time. That surprised me. I didn’t think it would be that way.'

Jorrit Bergsma, Heather's husband: 'With our team, when we’re skating or when we’re training, afterward we would always have coffee and sit and talk. In the beginning, Heather couldn’t understand and she felt left out.'
