Podcasts about canadian olympians

Welcome to episode 333 of the Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast! Triple threes. We are officially in taper mode for Ötillö Orcas Island, and we brought back one of our favorite guests to help us make the most of what is left in the build. Brian Johns is Head of Coaching Science at FORM Swim and a three-time Canadian Olympian. He is also the brains behind the FORM training plans that Chris has been running almost exclusively for two years with excellent results — including some very generous feedback from the master swim coach on deck who keeps gassing up his form score. We had Brian back on to talk about what is actually happening inside those plans, how to read and act on the data the goggles give you, and how to design swim training specifically for a race like the Swimrun World Championship. On the product side, FORM has the new Smart Swim 2 LT at $149, which gets you the heads-up display and the full coaching platform. The Pro 2 is their top of the line with Gorilla Glass lenses and high-end anti-fog. And Head Coach Insights — their newest software feature — gives you direct feedback on your swim after every session, including what to work on and why. The coaching conversation is where this one really takes off. Brian walks through the two levers of swim speed — stroke length and stroke rate — and how to manipulate them for open water racing. He explains why tracking your form score length by length beats tracking it by interval, how the goggles can give you real-time feedback that even a coach on deck cannot, and how to use success-based training to progressively build your interval length without grinding through bad swimming. His framework is simple: find the distance you can hold well, own it, and then extend it. For swimrun specifically, the conversation gets into how to structure brick sessions — swim before and after your long run, nothing fancy, just getting the body comfortable transitioning — and our favorite pool set for mimicking race conditions: 10x100s with a deck-up after each one. Brian had the same workout in his notes before we even mentioned it. On race tactics for Ötillö — Brian did his homework watching YouTube footage of the course, and his read is the same as ours. You cannot win the race on the first mile swim, but you can absolutely lose it. The swim is front-loaded, the racing is tactical, and quiet confidence going into the water is worth more than brute force. If you are heading to Orcas Island, come find us Saturday at Rosario Resort. We are hosting a fika with Wild Swimrun starting around 11am, and the shakeout swimrun with Marcus Barton and Team Envol follows in the afternoon. Details on the Instagrams. Enjoy!

Haley Daniels is a Canadian Olympian, keynote speaker, and gender equity trailblazer. She spent twelve years fighting to get women's canoe slalom added to the Olympic program — then competed in its historic debut at Tokyo 2020 as the first Canadian woman in the event. A multi-time Canadian Champion and Pan Am Games medalist, Haley now channels that same relentless drive into her work as a speaker, a co-race director of the Canmore Women's Enduro, and a brand partnership/athlete sponsor professional helping athletes and organizations secure the funding they deserve.

“I tangoed way too much in the first half and didn't have enough left to do it again when it counted. The marathoner who dances smart wins. I danced too early.”My guest for today's episode is Rory Linkletter: a Canadian Olympian, co-host of the Out and Back Podcast, and one of the most analytically sharp pro voices in the sport right now. At the 2026 Boston Marathon, he ran 2:06:04 for 14th place overall and the second-fastest marathon in Canadian history. He came in with the best build of his career — two sub-60-minute halves, workouts that never said no — and went out with the lead pack convinced that anything was possible. Then the bill came due.In this conversation, Rory walks us through the moment the race turned, the internal negotiation of the final nine miles, the hamstring that seized on Boylston, and what he took from watching Clayton Young and Ryan Ford fly past him on Commonwealth Avenue. But we also get Rory in full pundit mode: how to actually read the Boston results in the context of 2028, why he thinks Zouhair Talbi was operating on a different level than everyone around him, his declaration that John Korir is the best in the world right now, his take on the Scott Fauble super shoe debate, the Emma Bates sponsorship controversy, and why he thinks the 2028 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials will be the craziest in modern history.He also previews Ottawa in five weeks, where he goes in with a simple mandate: run less with the heart, more with the head.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavezGuest: Rory Linkletter | @rory_linkletterProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: When you finish a hard workout, the work isn't actually done.

We talk about the discipline behind the start, the trust it takes to race at full speed, and the mental habits that help him stay focused when the stakes are highest.This conversation is about more than sport — it's about resilience, commitment, and learning how to show up with confidence on the biggest stage. If you're an athlete, coach, or anyone interested in high performance, this episode is a reminder to flex your mind and trust the process.

Ben Preisner may be the 3rd fastest Canadian of all time over the marathon distance, but when he toes the line on Marathon Monday in Boston he'll be a rookie all over again.  Despite a 2:08 personal best, 3 World Championship appearances, and an Olympic Games under his belt, the 2026 Boston Marathon will be the 30 year old's debut at a World Marathon Major.  What makes this year's Boston debut even more exciting for fans of the sport has been Ben's transparency in inviting fans along for the journey towards Hopkinton through his daily Vlog, Bensmarathontraining, where he's shared the ins and outs, highs and lows of what goes into an elite marathoner's buildup for their goal race.  Today, Ben joins the show to recap his Boston build and share his last minute thoughts on the event before lining up alongside the best in the world for the 26.2 mile trip from Hopkinton to Boylston street.  Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.

Quick SummaryMargo is a Canadian Olympian who competed in the first-ever Olympic beach volleyball tournament at the 1996 Atlanta Games — and spent the years before that building the sport from the ground up with nothing but a group of passionate women, a bag of volleyballs, and a relentless vision. Nearly thirty years later, she brings that same pioneering spirit to her work in marketing, communications, and sustainability. In this episode, she shares what it really means to forge your own path, advocate for yourself in rooms that weren't built for you, and know when to be brave enough to just start.In This EpisodeHow Margo's athlete mother shaped her relationship with sport and competition from a young ageThe moment on Bondi Beach that changed the entire trajectory of her lifeWhat it took to qualify for the 1996 Olympics in a sport that wasn't yet officially recognized by Canadian sport organizationsThe key differences between indoor and beach volleyball — and why beach volleyball is essentially an entrepreneurial sportHow competition can be community, and why your "competitors" might be your greatest alliesThe self-advocacy mistake Margo wishes she had avoided on her Olympic journeyHow nearly three decades in executive marketing and communications mirrors the athlete mindsetWhy knowing what energizes vs. drains you is the foundation of owning your careerMargo's current work with Toronto Climate Week, Echo Athletes, and her children's book Good Girl PearlKey TakeawaysPut yourself in the environment where growth is inevitable. Margo went to Bondi Beach and San Diego not just to train, but to be surrounded by people at a higher level. When your environment matches your ambition, growth stops being hard work and starts being natural.Your competitors can make you better. The volleyball community modeled something rare: competitors who genuinely respect each other, play their hardest against each other, and then grab a drink together. The same principle applies in business. A rising tide lifts all boats.Silence is a choice — and it costs you. Margo's biggest regret is holding her tongue when she knew she should have spoken up. If you have the vision, the expertise, and the lived experience, waiting to feel "ready" only slows everyone down.Know what fires you up — and what drains you. Margo has consistently chosen roles that align with her builder's mindset. The structured, plug-and-play jobs weren't failures; they were data. Use that data to move back toward what energizes you.You don't have to wait until you're ready. Just start. Whether it's a sport, a career, or a conversation you've been avoiding — put it into motion. Fake it till you make it isn't a shortcut. It's a strategy.Memorable Quotes"With beach volleyball, every outcome you have to own — because you're involved in every single play. If you lose five in a row with five different partners, you can only look in the mirror.""If you stay silent, nothing moves forward. Be brave. Just start the conversation.""The better you are, the better I get. That's how sport improves, how community gets stronger, how businesses evolve."Resources MentionedMargo's LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/margomalowneyBook: Good Girl Pearl — available on Amazon, all proceeds to animal rescueEcoAthletes: https://www.ecoathletes.orgToronto Climate Week: https://www.tocw.caClimate Unf*cked podcast — a passion-driven climate podcast that avoids doomsday framing (search on your favorite podcast app)Good Girl Pearl by Margo — a children's book fundraiser for animal rescue, available on AmazonEcho Athletes — a group where your workouts and dog walks contribute to beach cleanups (find online or via app)Toronto Climate Week — Margo is an active contributor and advocateWave Event — Paris, Ontario, April 17th — Margo will be a featured speaker (link in show notes)Laura Sinclair — mutual connection and previous Rain or Shine podcast guestKelsey's website: KelseyReild.comKelsey's Instagram: @kelseyreidlAbout the GuestMargo is a Canadian Olympian who competed in the inaugural Olympic beach volleyball tournament at the 1996 Atlanta Games, helping build the sport in Canada from the ground up before it was formally recognized.

Ryan Wedding, Canadian Olympian turned FBI's most wanted has been caught in Mexico after years on the run, and faces charges for his alleged role in a murderous international drug crime network. We speak with CBC's Jorge Barrera, based in Mexico City, about how Wedding managed to evade authorities for so long, and what led to his capture.

A lot of theories, and a lot of speculation, until January 23,2026, when Ryan Wedding was taken into U.S. custody after a decade on the run. How does a Canadian Olympian end up in handcuffs, with U.S. authorities comparing him to “El Chapo” and Pablo Escobar? And what's the real story behind the seized art, luxury cars, and motorcycles?

Wedding Crashers. After a decade on the run, former Canadian Olympian and alleged narco kingpin Ryan Wedding is now in U.S. custody. The 44-year-old is accused of running an international empire built on drug smuggling and murder. Wedding was arrested in Mexico yesterday, and faces multiple charges.Also: U.S. President Donald Trump has drawn more Canadian ire: this time from veterans of the war in Afghanistan. They're outraged over Trump's suggestion NATO allies avoided the frontlines during the conflict. More than 40,000 CAF members served from 2001 to 2014, and 158 were killed. Thousands more were injured.And: Loss of appetite. What's behind the recent decline in popularity of meal prep kits.Plus: B.C.'s extortion crisis, stress over public sector cuts, Liberals prep for Parliament's return, and more.

With the Winter Olympics just weeks away, Canadian athletes are speaking out about the rising cost of representing their country. Luger Trinity Ellis says she's cutting pennies just to stay competitive. Speed skater Hayden Mayeur says even athletes at the top of the funding scale are struggling to cover rent, food, travel, and equipment. We hear from Hayden Mayeur about working part-time and why he believes future athletes may depend more on private sponsorship than public support. Then, David Shoemaker, CEO of the Canadian Olympic Committee on why funding hasn't increased and what he's asking Ottawa to do now.

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by The Athletic's Aaron Portzline to chat about Mason Marchment's immediate impact on the Blue Jackets, the Penguins acquiring Jackets' forward Yegor Chinakhov, if the team can continue to climb up the standings, why they struggle in regulation wins, and the rise of goaltender Jet Greaves. Then, former NHL defenseman, Canadian Olympian and current NHL Network analyst, Jason Demers (30:37) stops by to share his expectations on who will crack Team Canada's roster, why Macklin Celebrini is a generational talent, young players restarting an old hockey culture of being together as a team, why USA shouldn't leave Jason Robertson off the roster, and why Matthew Schaefer could be getting targeted more on the ice. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

She's tied for the most decorated Canadian Olympian, but she won't be anywhere near a podium for at least two years.Toronto's Penny Oleksiak has been banned from competing until 2027 after allegedly violating anti-doping whereabouts regulations, something she says has nothing to do with banned substances. The World Anti-Doping Agency is the international regulatory body that oversees drug testing for competitive athletes. Testing happens both after a competition, as well as in the form of pre-competitive check-ins, such as whereabout disclosures.Host Alex Seixeiro speaks to Bruce Arthur, columnist for the Toronto Star, to discuss what lies ahead for Magic Penny, and whether or not anti-doping regulation is too rigorous.

As a teenager, Jane Roos was one of the country's most promising young talents in track and field, with Olympic aspirations to represent Canada in the heptathlon. At age 18, those aspirations came to an abrupt halt after a devastating car accident brought an end to her athletic career.While tragedy marked the end of her personal pursuit of Olympic glory, it also served as a catalyst for a new pursuit that would help countless other Canadians achieve their own sporting dreams. While recovering in hospital from the spinal surgery needed to repair the broken back suffered in the accident, Jane set about raising money to fund fellow athletes pursuing the upcoming Olympic games [Sydney]*, creating the vision for a charity that would help bridge the gap between good and great for promising Canadian athletes by providing them with direct financial support. Shortly thereafter, the Canadian Athletes Now Fund was founded.Fast forward to today, and CANFund has provided direct financial support to 80% of Canadian Olympians spanning every Games from Athens 2004 to the upcoming Games in Milano-Cortina in 2026. In recent years, reliance on the funding CANFund offers has become even more acute for many, as rising costs place an added squeeze on athletes. Add to this the Federal government's announcement earlier this month that they would not increase core funding for National Sport organizations from their most recent increase 20 years ago, and the prospects of competing on the world stage for many of Canada's top athletes have become evermore unfeasible. Today on the shakeout podcast, CANFund founder Jane Roos joins the show to discuss how CANFund is gearing up to meet a record number of applicants and why it's more important than ever for Canadians to support the athletes that represent our country on the global stage.Find out more about CANFund HERESubscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Huge thank you to this week's sponsor Smartwool.

rWotD Episode 2988: Elvira Saadi Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Wednesday, 9 July 2025, is Elvira Saadi.Elvira Fuadovna Saadi (born January 2, 1952) is a retired gymnast from the former Soviet Union and a former elite gymnastics coach in Canada.As a member of the Soviet Union's women's gymnastics team, Saadi shared in the team gold medals at the 1972 and 1976 Olympics. She placed 8th in the all-around at the 1972 Olympics and 7th all-around at the 1976 Olympics.Saadi won the all-around, balance beam and floor exercise at the 1973 USSR national championships. That year, she tied for first on vault at the 1973 World University Games, where she also placed 3rd in the all-around.At the 1974 World Championships, she earned a share of the USSR team gold, placed fourth in the all-around and captured the bronze medal on floor exercise.Following the 1976 Olympics, Saadi accepted a coaching position at the Moscow Dynamo Club, where she was the coach of Soviet gymnast Tatiana Groshkova, who placed third all-around in the 1989 U. S. S. R. gymnastics championships and placed first all-around at the 1990 Trophee Massilia.Saadi was born in Tashkent, U. S. S. R. She relocated to Canada in 1991 to become a coach at the Canadian gym Cambridge Kips, where she trained Canadian Olympians Yvonne Tousek and Crystal Gilmore.In June 2011, Saadi announced plans to open her own club, Dynamo Gymnastics. The new club begun operations on the premises of Revolution Gymnastics in Waterloo, where several top young gymnasts who left Cambridge Kips with Saadi trained. Dynamo Gymnastics opened in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada in 2011. Saadi opened the new club together with the parents of one of the up-and-coming gymnasts, Victoria Moors, who left Cambridge Kips with Saadi. Along with Victoria Moors was Madeline Gardiner. Both Gardiner and Moors went on to qualify for the Canadian London 2012 Olympic team. Moors competed as part of Team Canada and helped to earn Canada 5th place overall in the team final, the best ranking of any Canadian Women's Artistic Gymnastics team to date at the Olympics. Gardiner was an alternate on the team but did not compete. Moors was also the youngest Canadian Olympian competing at the age of 15. Victoria went on to briefly hold the record for a Canadian Women's Artistic Gymnast at the 2013 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp, Belgium, in 2013, placing 10th for Canada. The previous best ranking for a Canadian was 14th. (That 10th-place ranking has since been beaten at the 2017 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships by Halifax's Ellie Black (Moors' teammate at the London Olympics). Victoria also has two eponymous skills, one a dismount from the uneven bars and the other a laid-out double-twisting double somersault on floor which is the hardest ranking floor skill to date. Victoria retired at the age of 18 in the spring of 2015. Victoria's sister Brooklyn Moors, also coached by Saadi, is a member of the Canadian national team and represented Canada at the 2017 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships and the 2018 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships.On November 20, 2023, Saadi was permanently banned by Gymnastics Canada from working with gymnasts due to physical and verbal abuse. She appealed the ban, but on June 24, 2024, the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada denied her appeal.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:20 UTC on Wednesday, 9 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Elvira Saadi on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

Trusted Friend What happens when you've dedicated your life to sports with a successful University basketball career,  only to realize there's no clear next step once it's over? The sport that once defined you is suddenly in the past—so what now? Then, as you watch the Olympic opening ceremony, something shifts. A new dream takes shape, a new challenge calls your name, and just like that, your path forward becomes clear. As a Canadian Olympian and the first woman to pilot a four-man bobsled with an all-female crew, she didn't just challenge the status quo—she rewrote it. But this episode isn't just about sports. It's about pushing past limitations, questioning outdated systems, and having the courage to stand up for what's right—even when others are waiting for you to fail. Alysia shares: ·  The unexpected inequalities she faced and how she fought for change ·  How stepping outside her comfort zone opened doors she never imagined ·  The mindset shifts that helped her turn obstacles into opportunities Her journey proves that breaking barriers isn't just about winning medals—it's about changing the game for those who come next. Whether you're an athlete, an advocate, or someone who's ever been told "you can't," this conversation is for you.   More of Alysia

This EP is a great conversation with two good friends of mine and national treasures of Canadian Sport.  Dom Gauthier competed as a Mogul Skier in the late 90s and was an Olympian in Nagano Japan in 1998.  He went on to become the coach of the Japanese National Team and then became the private coach of Jenn Heil and Alexandre Bilodeau where he was integral in their mutual success in Torino and Vancouver.  He became a founding member of the B2Ten foundation, supporting many Canadian Olympians and the success of Canadian Olympic sports for almost 20 years.  Jenn Heil is one of the winningest Mogul Skiers, both male and female, of all time. She has won multiple World Championships and many World Cup gold medal podiums throughout her career. She won Olympic Gold in 2006 at Torino, and Silver at the Vancouver Games. She's gone on to finish a bachelor's degree at McGill University and an MBA at Stanford University and is now building a business focused on women's health care.Together they are a power couple in Canadian sport, they have two growing boys, and they are dedicated to the improvement of sport and health in Canada. More recently Jenn has been named the Chef de Mission for the 2026 Olympic Games in Cortina, Italy.  I was honored to sit down with them both and catch up on life since retiring from competitive sports.

Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh says he is headed to Cairo to discuss a ceasefire proposal that emerged after talks in Paris. Qatar, the US and Egypt are pushing for a halt to hostilities that lasts at least a month. But Hamas is calling for a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. And, for nearly 20 years, Canadian Olympians have received as much as $15,000 for earning a gold medal at the Olympics. Canadian Paralympians, though, have never been paid — until now. Also, Canada's government announced this week its intention to delay the expansion of the medically assisted in dying program, known as MAID. It follows a series of hearings about whether those only with a mental illness should be allowed to seek out euthanasia. Plus, ants, lions and zebras!
