Short track speed skaters Charles and François Hamelin know that fate rests in their hands, 100 days from the start of the 2010 Olympics on Feb 12th, and they’re putting the training pedal to the metal in their hometown of Montreal. The brothers are hoping to fulfill their Olympic medal dreams and keep it all in the family as Yves Hamelin, their coach and father, guides them to their date with Olympic destiny.
