Canadian speedskating couple turns in another iconic kiss after gold medal win

Canadian speedskating couple turns in another iconic kiss after gold medal win

The first couple of Canadian speedskating went at it again on Monday.

You might remember Charles Hamelin and Marianne St-Gelais from the 2010 Vancouver Games. They turned in one of that Olympics iconic moments when St-Gelais ran down to greet Hamelin, her boyfriend, after a gold medal turn in the 500m. They passionately kissed and both the smooch and the video of St-Gelais' excited in-race reaction went viral. She says people still recognize her more for that moment than for the two silver medals she's won.

Cut to Monday in Sochi, when Hamelin recorded a gold-medal win in the 1,500m. St-Gelais was there again to cheer him on and then congratulate him in get-a-room fashion.
