Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on September 17, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Curtis! May your day be smoother than an Olympic bobsled run and filled with more laughs than teammates squeezed into a sled. Your incredible journey from the icy tracks of Vancouver 2010—where you clinched that unforgettable gold medal—to Sochi's thrilling bronze in 2014 has inspired us all.

Here's hoping this year brings even greater victories off the ice (and fewer bruises!). Keep sliding through life with style, humor, and grace—you've already proven you're faster downhill on ice than most people are walking uphill. Cheers to another fantastic lap around life's track; enjoy every moment!
