I traveled to the Pettit Center in Milwaukee, home of DASH, to learn about competing, coaching, and leading from two speedskating legends. Bonnie Blair Cruikshank is one of the most successful Olympic athletes of all time, having won five Olympic speedskating golds and countless other medals and championships. Dave Cruikshank was also an Olympian, a world champion, and one of the elite skaters in the world. This husband and wife duo inspired a generation of Olympic athletes. They continue to take the lead in promoting speedskating and Olympic sports in the United States and beyond. DASH is a premier training organization that prepares highest-level athletes to reach peak performance. I sat with Bonnie and Dave in the DASH training space – located on the second level of the Pettit – to learn from these remarkable people. On this SGG episode, we discussed: 1. Dave's early and ongoing attraction to speedskating: “I liked going fast. And I still like going fast.” 2. The mentoring that occurred across generations in the U.S. speedskating community – leading to many Olympians and world champions. 3. The impact Olympian Cathy Priestner had on Bonnie's early path in the sport. “She took me under her wing…It was a neat building of a great friendship…That relationship was a very big part of my journey.” 4. Bonnie training pretty much on her own in Champaign, IL during her early days on the U.S. team. 5. How and when Bonnie knew she had to make coaching changes during her career. 6. Dave being coached by a 4-time Olympian in Northbrook. 7. Dave: “I didn't really start training until I was 16. I was on my first Olympic team at 18.” 8. Coaching rule of thumb: “If we get hit by a bus, you should be able to take care of yourself. Our job is to educate you and give you as much knowledge and information on technique, training, sleep, nutrition, and preparation as we can. We will help guide you, but it's your journey.” 9. His athletes keep journals. (What's in the journals?) 10. Bonnie on the lack of performance training research: “We were flying by the seat of our pants.” 11. Why a peanut butter and jelly sandwich as pre-race meal made sense for Bonnie. (insights from special ops leaders) 12. The importance of getting to know your athletes. 13. Coach and athlete as “caddy-player relationship.” 14. “How can you get the most out of your players if you don't know them?! It's staggering to us that that communication is not taking place in a lot of sports.” 15. Cybernetics testing: Bonnie and Dave's two tests were the hardest they'd ever done. Why? “Because we can hurt. We can take a lot of stuff. We put up with a lot to get where we want to go…If I know I want to race really well, I know there's some stuff I have to do to hurt mentally and physically.” 16. Right-sizing commitment and sacrifice in sport. Bonnie: “If you want to take it to the absolute levels, there's absolute commitment.” Constantly “checking ourselves” when it comes to deciding how hard to push. 17. Dave's early goals: D-1 soccer and pro soccer. Didn't have concrete Olympic aspirations until six months before his first Olympic trials. 18. Bonnie: “I think my dad saw something in me.” 19. In her third race (ever!), Bonnie placed 8th in the Olympic trials. 20. Bonnie: “We never went on family vacations…We went to Chicago every weekend for races…That's what we did as a family. I never knew anything different…Skating was the thing that I loved the most.” For more episode notes from the Bonnie and Dave interview, refer to sportandthegrowinggood.com.

Steve wants the credit, but only for the good days... “I believe that your business should support your life, not consume it.” “More often than not, you're doing a lot of repetitive admin work.” “Start with a virtual assistant, but you want to be purposeful and keep that lane really small, and have it grow.” “Day 1, if you're thinking of being an entrepreneur, start that team.” “You didn't start a business to run a business.” “Your calendar is like your time bank account. If you don't do things effectively with the hour, you're going to lose the day.” “Your primary focus right now has been delivering the services and keeping the business, revenue, and profits, but there's a second thing that most people neglect and don't understand, and that's the efficiency of growing the business and compressing the admin aspect of it so the creation continues to grow.” “Do anything you can to have a good laugh.” “You had jobs you didn't like doing. You left them for a reason. So, this is supposed to be fun.” “Learning is only learning when you implement it. Slow down to speed up. Implement. Build your win team so you can get to what is next.” “Winning doesn't always mean being first. Winning means you're doing better than you've ever done before.” - Bonnie Blair   Our guest is Founder of Win the Hour, Win the Day, Kris Ward.

David Santee hosts 5-time Olympic speed skating champion, 4-time Olympian, and multi-hall of famer Bonnie Blair.

On the midweek edition TDRP, Doug revisits his 2018 conversation (in her kitchen) with five-time Olympic Gold Medal Speedskater Bonnie Blair.

Is speed skating a rich kid's sport? Do speed skaters ever skate clockwise to balance out muscle development? Who are the greatest Saskatonians? Why has the world record in the women's 500M dropped so precipitously since the days of Bonnie Blair?

Everyone is in for an extra special treat as speedskating legend, Bonnie Blair, joins Laura for this week’s episode. The first American woman to win five Olympic gold medals at the Olympic Winter Games, Bonnie dominated the sprint events of long track speedskating across three Games. At the time of her induction into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame, she was the most decorated female U.S. Winter Olympian of all time, and was also one of the most decorated female U.S. Olympians in individual events. Today, she shares the stories of her life, career, and achievements in the most open, honest and down to earth way, clearly demonstrating that she is as much a champion off the ice as she is on it.   In sharing the story of her life and career from her earliest memories, Bonnie touches upon her many Olympic experiences, as well as her schooling, training, and her stint in track cycle racing. She also details the impact her dad had upon her and her career, the ways in which she handles pressure, her post Olympic competitions, and what life has been like for her and her family during COVID. She finishes up by discussing the dynamic she shares with Laura of being an Olympian parent whose children are pursuing sports, and offering valuable advice for all to take to heart. Entertaining, warm, and thoroughly engaging, Bonnie Blair is a superstar professionally and personally, a shining example of one who has discovered the winning formula in both sport and life.

Today's short guided meditation is based on a quote from speed skating champion Bonnie Blair.

Casey FitzRandolph is an Olympic gold medalist, world champion, and one of the great speed skaters in history. A native of Verona, WI, Casey's journey is inspiring for competitors and instructive for all coaches and leaders. Casey gained widespread fame and admiration on the world stage, but his success was the result of years and years of hard work, sacrifice, and belief. In this SGG episode, we discussed: 1. Gaining early inspiration from Eric Heiden. 2. Coach Bob Corby. 3. His parents' remarkable support and commitment (and their cool family van). 4. Setting the goal to win Olympic gold at a very early age – and a willingness to do whatever it took to get there. 5. Coach Lyle Lebombard – who was both “old-school” and “cutting edge” – and emphasized technique in becoming one's best. 6. The importance of having an elite training facility in Wisconsin, the Pettit National ice Center. 7. Hard working, tight-knit Wisconsin families being well-suited for speed skating (e.g., Eric Heiden, Bonnie Blair, Dan Jansen, Chris Witty, Kip Carpenter). to th 8. Learning a lesson from every situation – and getting better after his first Olympics. 9. Being welcomed as a training partner and friend by Mike Ireland and Jeremy Wotherspoon, top Canadian skaters. “We shared blood, sweat, and tears.” 10. “At the end of the day, this is all about getting to our personal best.” 11. The critical importance of instilling belief. 12. Finding advantage over competition on the mental side. Three aspects: a) visualization; b) relaxation; c) perspective. 13. The current state of coaching in youth sports.

The speed skating legend with five Olympic gold medals and a bronze to her credit joins WTMJ's Jay Sorgi for a sit down about Milwaukee's role in speed skating and her journey through the sport, and her life experience as a mom of a world class competitor. Randy Dean, the Pettit National Ice Center's executive director, also previews the event and dives into Milwaukee's past, present and future in speed skating.
