Weldon started skiing at the age of three and in 2010, she started Para-Cycling. Her guide for Para-Cycling is Lyne Bessette and her guide for Para-Skiing is Phil Wood. Personal lifeWeldon was born on 6 September 1975 in Thunder Bay and still resides there. She started downhill skiing at the age of three. She was diagnosed with Stargardt disease in 1990 at the age of 15 , affecting her central vision. Weldon took up the sport of Para-Nordic skiing in 2002, and in 2010 she took up the sport of Para-cycling after attending a Western Canada Development Camp.[2] She is a mother of two children which Weldon took with her when competing in the 2012 London Paralympics. She hopes that the trip would inspire them. "My children have benefited greatly from my lifestyle of physical activity and being healthy... meeting para-athletes that are competing at an elite level and are so inspirational." Weldon said.[3] CareerWeldon did not win any medals in skiing at the 2010 Winter Paralympics but was "thrilled" by the experience.[4] At the 2011 Parapan American Games, Weldon participated in para-cycling and won four gold medals with guide Lyne Bessette. They won gold at the Mixed Time Trial, Women's Road Race, Women's individual track pursuit, and the Women's 1 Kilometre Time. She said that "it's very helpful having Lyne. She is such an experienced cyclist and she has taught me a lot."[5] The pair had also been selected to be the flag bearers at the closing ceremony.[6] Weldon and guide Bessette won one gold medal in the 2012 London Paralympics, in the Cycling at the 80-kilometre road race.[7] They finished with a time of 2:08:26,[8] 33 seconds ahead of Josefa Guzman Benitez and guide Maria Noriega.[9] After the competition, Weldon said "I am very happy. Lyne and I are thrilled about this golden performance... We had respect for everyone."[4][10] Weldon competed at the 2014 Winter Paralympics with Phil Wood as guide. It was the pair's first championship together but they did not win any medals. Wood said that "Skiing as a team when done well can add 10 to 15 per cent improvement in a single performance."[11] References1. ^{{Cite web|url=https://m.paralympic.org/asp/lib/theasp.asp?pageid=8937&sportid=-567&personid=883686&refreshauto=1|title=Robbi Weldon|last=|first=|date=|website=m.paralympic.org|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=12 February 2018}} {{Canadian medallists at the 2012 Summer Paralympics}}{{Commonscat|Robbi Weldon}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Weldon, Robbi}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title=Robbi Weldon – Canadian Paralympic Committee|url=http://paralympic.ca/robbi-weldon|accessdate=27 September 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Cartell|first1=Sean|title=Weldon returns to Canada to inspire her own children|url=http://www.paralympic.org/feature/weldon-returns-canada-inspire-her-own-children|publisher=paralympic.org|accessdate=28 September 2014}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|title=Thunder Bays Robbi Weldon Wins Gold at Paralympic Games |url=http://www.ontariocycling.org/thunder-bays-robbi-weldon-wins-gold-paralympic-games/ |publisher=ontariocycling.org |accessdate=28 September 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141006093311/http://www.ontariocycling.org/thunder-bays-robbi-weldon-wins-gold-paralympic-games/ |archivedate= 6 October 2014 |df= }} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Robbi Weldon and Lyne Bessette win fourth gold on Day Seven at the Parapan American Games in Guadalajara|url=http://www.newswire.ca/en/story/881207/robbi-weldon-and-lyne-bessette-win-fourth-gold-on-day-seven-at-the-parapan-american-games-in-guadalajara|publisher=newswire.ca|accessdate=28 September 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Robbi Weldon and Lyne Bessette named Canada's Flag Bearers for the Closing Ceremony of the Guadalajara 2011 Parapan American Games|url=http://www.newswire.ca/en/story/881261/robbi-weldon-and-lyne-bessette-named-canada-s-flag-bearers-for-the-closing-ceremony-of-the-guadalajara-2011-parapan-american-games|accessdate=28 September 2014}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=https://nationalpost.com/sports/canadas-robbi-weldon-wins-gold-in-cycling-at-paralympics|title=Canada’s Robbi Weldon wins gold in cycling at Paralympics|last=|first=|date=2012-09-08|work=National Post|access-date=12 February 2018|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|language=en-US}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=London 2012 Paralympic Games – Cycling (Road) – Women's Road Race B|url=http://www.paralympic.org/ipc_results/results.php?eclass=B&sport=cycling&competition=2012PG&gender=f&discipline=Road&event=Road%20Race|accessdate=28 September 2014}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Paralympics: Weldon, Bessette rebound with gold in road race|url=https://www.thestar.com/sports/olympics/2012/09/08/paralympics_weldon_bessette_rebound_with_gold_in_road_race.html|publisher=thestar.com|accessdate=28 September 2014|author=Phillip Maccalum}} 10. ^{{cite web|title=robbiweldon|url=http://www.robbiweldon.ca/#!media/ck0q|accessdate=6 October 2014}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=Panorama product and Nipika newcomer shine in Sochi – Columbia Valley Pioneer|url=http://www.columbiavalleypioneer.com/?p=11729|accessdate=28 September 2014}} 13 : 1975 births|Living people|Canadian female biathletes|Canadian female cross-country skiers|Canadian female cyclists|Biathletes at the 2010 Winter Paralympics|Biathletes at the 2014 Winter Paralympics|Cyclists at the 2012 Summer Paralympics|Paralympic biathletes of Canada|Paralympic cyclists of Canada|Paralympic gold medalists for Canada|Medalists at the 2012 Summer Paralympics|Sportspeople from Thunder Bay |
