JAY HAKKINEN'S WORLD BEYOND SPORTS

The best place to rest is anywhere I can shut my eyes
If I could meet anyone it would be Paul Krugman
Dream vacation spot: Sochi, Russia
I am a real slacker when it comes to doing the dishes
I am good at: biathlon
I am bad at: sometimes, also biathlon
My favorite television show is The Simpsons
My favorite meal is Eggs Benedict
The best thing in life is a gourmet dinner with family
If I were not a full-time athlete, I would be a most-of–the time athlete!
You would never mistake me for pretty much anyone else
