Jayner resumes training in Utah on Monday for next season. He said he will take his career season by season and is keeping the door open to competing in the next Winter Olympics, in 2014 in Sochi, Russia,

"As long as I can still pay the bills, I'm still having fun and I'm still competitive, I'll keep skating," he said. "I feel lucky and honoured to have this opportunity."

Jayner is studying urban planning through Montreal's Concordia University. He hopes to get involved with the New Brunswick Canada Games team in the future.
