Episode 541 - Deedra Irwin Interview

As we close in on the Milano Cortina Olympics, we bring you another epic interview as we chat with history-making American biathlete Deedra Irwin, who is set to appear at her second Olympic Games in just a matter of days! Deedra takes us through her unique journey into the sport, having switched late from her original Olympic dreams in athletics, with cross-country skiing playing a key role along the way. She also reflects on her experiences at the Beijing 2022 Games and what it meant to create American Olympic history on that stage. We then look ahead to Milano Cortina, as Deedra explains what she’s expecting from the Games and why fans who may not know biathlon as well should be especially excited for the 2026 Olympics! It’s an incredible chat with an incredible individual you won’t want to miss!
