Först och främst går våra tankar till alla drabbade i Örebro. En fruktansvärd händelse och ett enormt trauma. Gällande skidåkning funderar vi varför så många juniorer bröt tävlingen i Bergeforsen? Är det en trend att oroa sig för eller bara en tillfällighet? Det blev en bra medaljskörd för Sveriges U23-åkare på VM i Schilpario, fem medaljer och nästbästa nation i medaljligan. Vi snackar också SM i Borås som bjöd på riktigt fin stämning. Roberto gillar dock inte att man plockade av alla varvade. Jack-Snack är tillbaka dessutom. Och vände första dagen vi var på OS 2018?

Passados oito anos dos Jogos Olímpicos Rio 2016, o maior evento esportivo do mundo continua rendendo frutos aos cariocas. A cidade se prepara para receber o Museu Olímpico, tornando-se a primeira da América do Sul a fazer parte da rede Olympic Museums Network (Rede de Museus Olímpicos) do COI (Comitê Olímpico Internacional). A novidade foi celebrada nessa semana no Congresso Anual das Cidades Olímpicas, em Lausanne, na Suíça.   Maria Paula Carvalho, da RFI em ParisO novo museu Olímpico vai ocupar o andar superior do Velódromo, no Parque Olímpico, um complexo esportivo e de lazer construído para os Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos de Verão de 2016, na zona oeste do Rio de Janeiro. Os preparativos estão na reta final e a expectativa é de abertura no primeiro trimestre de 2025.Em exposição, haverá muito mais do que medalhas e outras lembranças das competições, já que o acervo é um testemunho das transformações ocorridas na cidade por conta das competições. "Essa história de transformação, de superação de uma cidade do Sul global para entregar os Jogos Olímpicos, os primeiros Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos da América do Sul, é uma história que merece ser lembrada e celebrada", afirma Rafael Lisbôa, consultor de comunicação da prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro para grandes eventos."É muito importante fazer parte dessa rede dos museus olímpicos porque a gente se conecta com outras cidades que, como o Rio, seguem inspirando por conta da realização dos Jogos Olímpicos. A gente aprende com outras cidades e troca experiências e conhecimentos", completa.O Museu Olímpico terá um acervo com relíquias dos atletas e das competições, os melhores momentos, os medalhistas, mas também registros da cidade do Rio, outra protagonista desses Jogos Olímpicos. "Tal como um atleta, a cidade também superou seus obstáculos, venceu desafios, se preparou para poder receber o mundo e para melhorar a qualidade de vida dos cidadãos. Então, o Museu Olímpico do Rio é sobre esportes, é sobre atletas, é sobre superação, mas principalmente sobre legado", define.   Outros Museus Olímpicos que fazem parte deste seleto grupo estão em Montreal, no Canadá; Pequim, na China; Atenas, na Grécia; Tel Aviv, em Israel, e Barcelona, na Espanha, entre outras cidades.O projeto permite programas educacionais e de desenvolvimento de negócios em torno do esporte, além de atrair o público e visitantes virtuais, para aumentar a promoção dos valores do olimpismo, explica Tânia Braga, head de impacto e legado dos Jogos Olímpicos junto ao COI."O Museu Olímpico está dentro desse contexto do Parque Olímpico do Rio, com todas as novidades que vieram nesse último ano, com a Escola Isabel Salgado, o Parque Rita Lee, a reabilitação e abertura do parque para a população. Então, é uma revitalização dessa área, completando os planos de legado que tinham sido feitos antes dos Jogos, mas cuja implementação foi interrompida por alguns anos", diz.  A representante do COI observa que o legado físico de utilização das instalações esportivas demorou, mas foi completado recentemente. "Eu acho que é uma história que mostra a importância não só do planejamento, mas da importância de você criar alguns mecanismos de resiliência em relação à mudança política. Com a mudança de liderança política em nível municipal no Rio, a execução do plano de legado não era uma prioridade. Depois, voltou a ser. Então, demorou mais do que o esperado para executar", lamenta.  Por outro lado, o COI elogia o exemplo carioca do ponto de vista do legado humano e educacional. "O programa de educação lançado com os Jogos continua nesses oito anos e com bastante sucesso, através de dois programas: um realizado pelo Comitê Olímpico Brasileiro e o outro por uma fundação privada", diz. "A gente também tem uma visão do legado em termos de sustentabilidade em eventos que ficou", completa.  Receber 15 mil atletas de mais de 200 nacionalidades, 30 mil jornalistas e 1,5 milhão de visitantes, em 2016, representou para o Rio de Janeiro uma oportunidade para tirar do papel projetos de infraestrutura e mobilidade. A prefeitura afirma que o legado para a cidade foi entregue antes dos Jogos, com destaque para a revitalização da Zona Portuária, a construção de 150 quilômetros de linhas de ônibus articulados BRTs, além de corredores como a Transoeste, a Transcarioca, a Transolímpica e a Transbrasil.Outros projetos entregues são o Parque Madureira, o Centro de Operações para segurança, os reservatórios de água para conter alagamentos na região da Grande Tijuca, a duplicação do Elevado do Joá, a linha 4 do metrô, o VLT (veículo leve sobre trilhos), o saneamento da Zona Oeste da cidade, o fechamento do Aterro sanitário de Gramacho e a abertura do Centro de Tratamento de Resíduos de Seropédica."Tudo isso eram compromissos olímpicos entregues antes dos Jogos. O que ficou faltando era o plano de legado das arenas esportivas", explica Lisbôa. "Esse plano estava pronto. Só que passado o ano de 2016, uma nova administração municipal assumiu e não levou adiante o plano de legado. Ao ser reeleito em 2020, o prefeito Eduardo Paes colocou como prioridade implementar o plano de legado para as arenas esportivas", continua. "Então, a gente tem muito orgulho de ser a primeira cidade olímpica a ter transformado arenas olímpicas, estádios esportivos, em escolas", comemora.  Legado pós-olímpicoA Arena 3, que recebeu as competições de taekwondo e esgrima, tornou-se um colégio da rede municipal para mais de mil alunos, batizado com o nome da jogadora de vôlei Isabel Salgado.  A Arena do Futuro, sede das partidas de handebol, foi desmontada e o material usado na construção de quatro Ginásios Educacionais Tecnológicos (GETs) em Rio das Pedras, Bangu, Campo Grande e Santa Cruz, beneficiando 1.700 estudantes.  Parte da estrutura do IBC – o centro de mídia dos Jogos – foi utilizada para erguer o Terminal Gentileza (TIG), que conecta linhas de ônibus, VLT e BRT.  A Via Olímpica, o boulevard que conectava todas as arenas no Parque Olímpico, virou o colorido Parque Rita Lee, uma área de lazer com 136 mil m². A Arena 2, palco das provas de judô e de luta livre, vai virar um novo campus do Instituto Federal do Rio de Janeiro. E a piscina olímpica do antigo Centro Aquático, que testemunhou a despedida do nadador americano Michael Phelps, está sendo instalada no Parque Oeste – uma herança que a prefeitura do Rio apresentou na capital olímpica e sede do COI, na Suíça.  Inspiração para Paris 2024"É muito interessante ver como o legado até hoje segue inspirando cidades", destaca Rafael Lisbôa, cintando alguns dos participantes do encontro ocorrido na Europa, na última terça-feira (12). "Lá estavam representantes de Sarajevo, que recebeu os Jogos Olímpicos de Inverno há 40 anos, de Saint-Louis, nos Estados Unidos, que recebeu a terceira edição dos Jogos Olímpicos de 1904, e tinha, obviamente, Paris, a última sede olímpica", relata. "Foi muito bacana ver todo o planejamento de Paris para o pós-Jogos. Paris fez transformações incríveis na cidade e agora eles têm justamente a preocupação em ampliar esse legado e mantê-lo vivo", completa."A prefeita Anne Hidalgo e o prefeito Eduardo Paes são muito próximos. Eles trocaram muitas ideias e experiências por conta das Olimpíadas e a prefeita Hidalgo, em várias oportunidades, destacou como a experiência olímpica do Rio era uma inspiração", diz. "Ela falou que aprendeu com o prefeito Eduardo Paes pelo menos duas lições: a primeira, tentar antecipar ao máximo tudo. E a segunda, apostar nas estruturas permanentes já existentes e o que for fazer de estrutura temporária, pensar como podem ser reaproveitadas para novos equipamentos públicos. Então, essa lição de não deixar elefante branco é algo que Paris se inspirou no Rio", afirma Rafael Lisbôa em entrevista à RFI. Estudo recente da Fundação Getúlio Vargas sobre o legado dos Jogos Olímpicos e Paralímpicos Rio 2016 calculou um impacto de R$ 100 bilhões na economia da cidade, com geração de meio milhão de empregos.Quem paga a conta?Tânia Braga, head de impacto e legado dos Jogos Olímpicos junto ao COI, admite que existam críticas em termos de custos dos Jogos Olímpicos, segundo ela, motivadas "às vezes por uma falta de conhecimento de onde vêm os recursos". Conforme destaca, "os Jogos são realizados majoritariamente com recurso privado, não público, mas, infelizmente, a percepção ainda é, em muitos locais, de que os Jogos são feitos com recursos públicos, mesmo que isso tenha sido demonstrado com dados", observa. Ela destaca um levantamento feito há dois anos pelo COI, sobre a utilização de todas as instalações olímpicas, desde os primeiros Jogos Modernos de Atenas, em 1896 até os Jogos de inverno de PyeongChang, na Coreia do Sul, em 2018. "A gente descobriu que 83% de todas as instalações ainda são utilizadas, sendo que a percepção às vezes é um pouco diferente disso."  No Rio de Janeiro, estudo da Fundação Getúlio Vargas apontou que a maior parte dos custos dos Jogos Rio 2016 foram de investimentos privados."A prefeitura procurou soluções de engenharia financeira criativas por meio de PPPs (Parcerias Público Privadas) e concessões", explica Rafael Lisbôa, consultor de comunicação da prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro. "O Parque Olímpico não teve dinheiro público, foi dinheiro privado. A Vila dos Atletas também. No campo de golfe foi dinheiro privado, então, 60% do orçamento olímpico, quem arcou foi a iniciativa privada, por meio de parcerias, de concessões, de PPPs", diz. "Os recursos públicos se deram principalmente para as obras de legado e não eram obras para as Olimpíadas, mas para a população e para a cidade", completa."Em relação a todos os compromissos olímpicos da cidade do Rio, foi entregue além. A gente tinha se comprometido no dossiê de candidatura com 17 projetos de legado e entregou 27", finaliza.

Beide haben tolle Karrieren hinter sich: Alt-Bundesrätin Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf und der ehemalige Olympiasieger und Alpinsnowboarder Nevin Galmarini. In Chur erzählen sie von neuen und alten Herausforderungen. Nevin Galmarini (37) Olympia-Silber in Sotschi, Gold in Pyeongchang. Das sind nur zwei der vielen sportlichen Höhenflüge, die der Ardezer Alpin-Snowboarder Nevin Galmarini erleben durfte. Den Erfolg hat er aber möglicherweise im Blut: Seine Mutter war schon erfolgreiche Skifahrerin und beispielsweise Siegerin im Riesenslalom an der Gehörlosen-WM 1971. Seinen Rücktritt gab Galmarini vor zwei Jahren. Nun arbeitet der Vater von Zwillingen in der Vermögensverwaltung und sagt: «Das Adrenalin fehlt mir schon sehr». Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf (68) Die Alt-Bundesrätin ging als Kind mit dem Kopf durch die Wand: Schon früh wusste sie, was sie möchte. Entscheidungen wollte sie selbständig fällen. Bundesrätin zu werden gehörte damals allerdings nicht auf ihre Wunschliste. Und dies, obwohl man am elterlichen Esstisch viel politisierte, immerhin war auch ihr Vater, Leon Schlumpf, Bundesrat. Dafür demonstrierte sie als Jugendliche für das Frauenstimmrecht. Die promovierte Juristin ist auch heute noch umtriebig, als Präsidentin von Pro Senectute liegt ihr die Freiwilligenarbeit am Herzen. Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf und Nevin Galmarini sind zu Gast bei Olivia Röllin am Sonntag, 13. Oktober im B12 in Chur. Türöffnung ist um 9 Uhr. Keine Anmeldung nötig.

I'm a Canon shooter… I shoot an R6 and an R5. So, I have been curious about the new Canon R1, and a little less so about the R5 Mark II. Still, I had written off watching the announcement, because it was at something like 3am my time… but, I happened to be up anyway so I watched it, and I ended up with some serious opinions on both the new gear and the presentation itself. There's no question these cameras are in demand, even though the R5 Mark II retails for $4,300 and the R1 for a whopping $6,300. The R5 Mark II is already backordered to early Sept, and B&H says the Release Date for the R1 is estimated as Nov 26th. Very few people have had the chance to try out the R5 Mark II and R1, and those that have didn't get much time with them. A few photographers were given pre-release bodies to use at the Olympics, and luckily for us one of them is a friend of the show. I knew Jeff was going to be using the R5 Mark II and R1 at the Paris Olympics, it was semi-public knowledge, so before he left I asked if he would come back on the show to give us his thoughts. He agreed to do a recap, and so today we will dive into his experiences under the real world pressure of photographing the Olympics for Team USA. Jeff has been on the show a few times before. First for the episode Capture the Action, and then to talk about his experiences at the Tokyo Olympics for the show on Real World Use of the Canon R3. On the chance that you didn't see either of those shows, let me introduce you to my friend Jeff Cable... Photographing the Olympics has got to be the pinnacle of a sports photographer's career, and for Jeff Cable it's one he's reached many times, having now photographed the last 8 Olympics for Team USA. I am always amazed by how many photographers either come from, or are in some way involved with, the tech industry. For more than 25 years, Jeff was a marketing executive at companies like Symantec, Magellan, and Micron, but while traveling the world for his corporate job, his interest and passion for photography grew quickly. He left the corporate world in 2016 to dedicate himself full-time to his photography. Since then, Jeff has earned respect around the globe for his creative images, and for sharing his love of photography with others. He's best known for capturing photos for the US Olympic Committee, photographing the last eight Olympic games, in Beijing, Vancouver, London, Sochi, Rio de Janeiro, PyeongChang, Tokyo, and Paris. As an educator, Jeff also leads photo tours where he teaches photo enthusiasts and professionals around the world. He has taught in Africa, Australia, China, Europe, Central and South America, and across the United States, and has upcoming tours, through 2024 and 2025, to San Francisco, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, Tanzania (African Safari), Japan, Botswana, and Alaska. Join me in welcoming Sports and Event Photographer Jeff Cable back to the show, as we talk about his real world experience at this year's Paris Olympics with a pre-production Canon EOS R1 and pre-production R5 Mark II, on this episode of Behind the Shot. CORRECTION: Thanks to Mike in the YouTube comments for pointing out that I was incorrect when I referred to the R5 II as having cross-type AF. The R1 does, but the R5 II does not. Sorry about the mistake. How Did the Canon R1, Canon R5 MKII and new lenses REALLY do at the Olympics?

Have you been around that thing? Joel Saxum: I have, I've actually sat in it and I think I know where this story is going. Allen Hall: I been up close to it and I don't remember where it must have been an automobile museum and to the peanut mobile Which is another engineering marvel not seen that I saw them both driving down a highway one day I thought man either I'm really tired Strange vehicles on the road today But the wiener mobile flipped over outside of Chicago, did you see that It looked like a, did it look like somebody fell asleep and hit one of those concrete barriers that you can always find in Chicago? Joel Saxum: My thought was, I was actually joking with a friend about it, is cause I'm from Wisconsin, so there's this rivalry between Chicago and the people in Wisconsin. And it was brats versus the all, the all beef hot dogs in Chicago that they make the Chicago dogs. And they're saying that they wanted to keep the Wienermobile in Chicago so much that they, someone actually sabotaged it. I don't know, that's probably not what happened, of course, but that was the joke. Allen Hall: Is there a Bratmobile? Joel Saxum: There's not. I will tell you this, if you'd like to see some great American entertainment, tune into a Milwaukee Brewers game and watch the Sausage Race. And you will see hot dogs and brats, polishes. Italian sausage. That's the fourth one. Are these the four food groups up in Wisconsin? Yes, yes. Yes they are. Number five is cheese curds and number six is beer. That rounds it out nicely. So the Wienermobile needs a little TLC based on the photos I've seen and they're gonna have to put that thing back together. That's a hallmark of America, right? There's things to be proud of. That's one of them, man on the moon, Wienermobile. I'm Allen Hall, and I'll be joined by the rest of the Uptime host after these news headlines. In our first story, German wind turbine manufacturer Nordex is reporting a significant turnaround in its financial performance. For the first half of 2024, the company saw a dramatically reduced net loss of 12.6 million euros, a substantial improvement from the 298 million Euro loss reported in the same period last year. This positive trend is further underscored by a 24.7% increase in sales reaching 3.43 billion euros. In light of these encouraging results, Nordics has revived its 2024 guidance upward now projecting an EBITDA margin between three and 4%. Amid these industry dynamics, the United Kingdom is making bold moves to accelerate its wind energy sector.  The British government has unveiled ambitious plans to support an additional 20 to 30 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2030...

Sports enthusiasts from around the world will soon be glued to their nearest viewing screen, watching the action unfold during the international Summer Olympic Games in Paris.   But how much do you know about the finer points of photographing elite level competition, or about the lightning-fast, high-tech journey these images make from inside a camera to a remote editing workflow, and then onward to be enjoyed by you, the viewer?   In today's podcast we've got the inside track on how these visual delicacies are brought to life and served up to global audiences. Our guests are Getty Images Chief Photographer Maddie Meyer and Managing Editor James Chance, who runs Getty Images' editing operations in Europe.   We start with Maddie, who details the advance preparations and complex logistics required to ensure the success of 60 Getty Images photographers on the ground in Paris, alongside a sizable amount of remote and robotic gear. In the show's second half, James describes the impressive synergy between the photographers on site and the massive team of photo editors he's assembled to work remotely from London and in other locations around the world—a complex infrastructure that's a first for the agency.   Immerse yourself in the passion for sports and learn what it takes to capture images that set you apart from the pack.   As Maddie Meyer sums up, “That's where the real challenge comes in. And that's where I would say it's really difficult. But that's where knowing the athletes comes in, knowing the way they move, knowing their rituals before they get in the pool, knowing some of the dynamics between the athletes, where you can really kind of pick up on the minutia to try and make something special.” Guests: Maddie Meyer & James Chance Episode Timeline: 3:37: Maddie's college internship at Getty Images, and her experiences as a woman shooting sports. 8:30: Plans for covering the Paris Games, and details about the Getty Images team. 11:56: Maddie's aquatics specialty and details about photographer assignments. 16:23: A question of shooting strategy: going for maximum volume vs anticipating more and shooting less. 22:37: Dedicated cameras vs remotes and robotic equipment, plus Maddie's go-to gear: A Canon R3 mirrorless and 28-70 mm f/2 lens. 28:23: Episode Break  29:35: The synergy and trust between photography and photo editing teams. 33:28: Logistics of staff photographers, remotes, and robotic cameras on the ground to capture the Paris Games  38:28: Details about Getty Images remote photo editing staff in the UK during the Paris games, and their three-stage editing process. 43:33: The technical tools—hardware and software—powering the Getty Images workflow and file management process. 1:00:58: The most important qualities in a Getty Images photo editor. Guest Bios: Maddie Meyer is a chief photographer for Getty Images based in—but not geographically limited to—Boston, Massachusetts.

Kendall Wesenberg has been a competitor from an early age as she “wanted to win before I knew what it was.” She grew up playing all the typical youth sports and continued with club soccer through college. After seeing bobsled during the 2010 Olympic Games, this California girl moved to Park City, Utah 2 years later after graduation to learn more about the sport. She loved the adrenaline rush that bobsled provided but felt her body type was better suited for skeleton. In 2014 Kendall earned an invite to US Team Trials where she took 4th then went on to become the first American woman to win the European Cup circuit overall title. The following season she earned a World Cup spot where she has competed for the last 3 seasons, winning a silver medal in the St. Moritz World Cup in 2017 and earning one of two Olympic spots for the 2018 Games in Pyeongchang. Kendall shares how she trains her mind and body to access the zone and make 100 crucial decisions every minute. Her sport is extremely dangerous and challenging but she approaches it like she approaches life, by focusing on kindness, hard work and having the most fun! @kendallorraine

Our latest episode in our classic Olympic Opening Ceremony series is here as we once again go over an Opening Ceremony we have already covered in looking at the 2018 Winter Olympic Opening Ceremony from PyeongChang in South Korea! Has this Opening Ceremony actually improved since we watched it six years ago? How excited are we to have so much mascot interaction in this ceremony? Why are we still disappointed by the lack of Psy, even though there is technically Psy in it? Are we in awe of the soprano singer still? Are we slowly becoming nostalgic for Thomas Bach (Olympic Champion Fencing) and his very long speeches? And does this episode make us want to re-visit some other recent Opening Ceremonies for another look? It's all here in another epic episode that you won't want to miss!

When Kenny Albert was growing up, family gatherings sounded a lot like a dispatch from the first all-sports radio station. There was his father, Marv, whose voice shaped the sound of modern basketball, and there too were his uncles Al and Steve-a trio of professional play-by-play men with a listenership that spanned the country. It was only a matter of time before Kenny, armed with a toy tape recorder, yearned to follow in their footsteps. Some 3,000 broadcasts later, Kenny Albert has amassed countless stories from the world of sports and media. A Mic for All Seasons is his chronicle of a charmed yet unlikely journey, from a youth spent calling games in his bedroom for a fictitious audience to ten-hour bus rides with a minor-league hockey team, plus the time he worked five different sports in one chaotic, 19-day stretch. The only play-by-play broadcaster who currently calls all four major sports in North America, Albert details the stand-out moments from his three-decade career, including the 1994 Stanley Cup Final, Jose Bautista's bat flip in the 2015 ALCS, and the U.S. women's hockey Olympic gold-medal winning shootout in Pyeongchang in 2018. Part memoir, part behind-the-scenes look at the world of broadcast media, A Mic for All Seasons also features stories about life in the booth, game preparation, travel hijinks, marquee events, meetings with star athletes and coaches, and much more.

Longtime U.S. Biathlon Team athlete Maddie Phaneuf grappled with her life's direction after retiring. A full time move into coaching wasn't really in her plan. But, today, she enters her third season as a coach – leading one of America's most noted biathlon programs, studying with coaches from nearly 20 nations at International Biathlon Union workshops and serving as a role model for women in coaching. Most of all, she's feeling gratified by the experience and having fun giving back to the next generation of biathletes.Phaneuf, who was featured in season one of Heartbeat with an episode entitled Finding Her Way Back, has truly found her way back. From introducing the sport to Alaskan children north of the Arctic Circle to teaching kids in Lake Placid how to gently squeeze the trigger, she is finding a meaningful pathway in the sport as a coach.After losing her Olympic opportunity in PyeongChang due to race-morning strep throat, she battled with depression, stepping away from racing. During her sabbatical she volunteered on a NANANordic/Skiku trip to Noorvik, Alaska – which opened her eyes on what she had to offer as a coach. She came back in 2020-21 for one of her best seasons ever! After that season, she decided to move on. And when a coaching opportunity came her way with New York Ski Education Foundation, she jumped at the opportunity – rising up after a season to become NYSEF's first head biathlon coach.In this episode of Heartbeat, Phaneuf covers it all – from the success she enjoyed as an athlete to her mental health challenges after PyeongChang to her experiences working side-by-side with other coaches from around the world.Going back in time, how did you get into biathlon?I moved to the Adirondacks when I was eight. My family spent the first chunk of my life down in South Carolina – so the complete opposite of the northeast. I began cross country skiing at a young age and got into biathlon with the Polar Bear Biathlon Club when I was 15. That was my first introduction and I quickly fell in love with the sport and kept getting after it and trying to make Junior Worlds.Had you considered coaching after your athletic career?When I would think about my career as an athlete and what I wanted to do with my life – my first thought wasn't coaching. I was ‘oh, I think that's something that I don't want to do' actually. But my first taste of coaching a little bit was when I would help the Polar Bear Ski Club. And when I was an athlete, I would go down and help with some sessions now and then during the holidays. And then my first real taste of coaching was ... I did a NANANordic program. It's basically a volunteer-based program to go up to rural communities in Alaska and bring a skiing program to them for a week or so. So that was my first real taste, and I loved it. I loved working with those kids. It was so fun and different. And so when I was retiring, or kind of in that in-between limbo of not quite sure what I wanted to do with racing or moving on stage, I was still here in Lake Placid. The former head coach, Shane McDowell, was looking for some extra support with the biathlon program. I wasn't fully training, but I also wasn't working, so I figured I would just help and kind of see if I liked it. Then that just turned into me staying with the club and being their first true head biathlon coach, and I've been loving it ever since.Mental health is very important to you. What counsel would you give young athletes and their parents?That's a hard question, because I just remember when I was in high school and maybe it's different now. I feel like when I was in high school the last thing I wanted to do was tell my parents anything about what I was going through. Maybe that was just my own personal relationship, because I have a much better relationship with them now and tell them everything. But I think as a parent, it's mostly important just to keep like an extra eye in a sense of like, you don't need to constantly always ask your child, like, ‘how are you doing?' But it's important just to notice their patterns. And if something seems a little off, like notice it at first and maybe ask them or at least give them the opportunity to be like, ‘hey, you do know that my door is always open. I'm happy to talk to you about anything. And if I'm not the person you want to talk to, I'm totally happy to help you find someone else that you want to talk to.' That's the main thing – just not expecting your child to want to necessarily open up to you because they might not feel totally comfortable. But if you notice something, at least give them the resources to know that it's okay to talk to somebody else.You've now made friends with coaches from around the world in the IBU coaches program. What are your takeaways from that experience?It's really interesting because coming from a sport like biathlon and a lot of these, these coaches, having been involved in the sport when they were young or even recent years, we all have a similar tie. Obviously we all understand the sport. We all are in it for the same sort of reasons. We love the sport, we're passionate about it. We're obviously coaching because we want to give back to the community and want to continue growing the sport for next generations. And so it's cool because we all kind of have this similar bond and we can kind of connect over that. And the other thing that I find really interesting is learning how coaching in different cultures is so different. Like for instance, I would have never known that in Finland, for instance, this coach was saying that the athletes there are fully expected to kind of ask questions and probe why they're doing a certain thing. But for athletes who are maybe in Ukraine or Moldova, it's very much more like authoritarian type coaching, and they're not really expected to ask why they're doing a thing. They're just expected to follow what the coach informs. As a woman coach, you're blazing new territory. Are you motivated to be a role model for women in coaching?When I first heard about biathlon, the club at the time was only kids that hunted, and they were all boys. And I remember thinking, ‘okay, so biathlon is for boys and it's for people who like hunting' – which is so wrong and not accurate at all. As I got older and was competing more, becoming a woman and an adult, looking around the world and really, truly realizing what patriarchy is and like how instilled it is in our society that men have these positions of power where women don't necessarily. In a sport like biathlon, it's very male heavy. So it kind of opened my eyes to not only within biathlon, but just the entire world and how male dominated it is in these roles where people are making decisions like coaching or officiating. I just kind of became more interested in taking up more space and being a woman in those roles. And I really, truly encourage more women to take up more space and push the boundary into coaching or officiating.Are you still playing music?Well, I recently picked up a piano off the side of the road this past summer. So I am dabbling back in the piano, which I've played since I was eight, so that's been very nostalgic and fun to get back into.If you want to hear more about the piano, listen in to this episode of Heartbeat where Maddie Phaneuf talks about coaching, mentorship, mental health, being a role model, U.S. Biathlon's Try It laser rifle program and much more.

00:00-20:00: Kenny Albert chats about his new book A Mic for All Seasons. From Amazon: When Kenny Albert was growing up, family gatherings sounded a lot like a dispatch from the first all-sports radio station. There was his father, Marv, whose voice shaped the sound of modern basketball, and there too were his uncles Al and Steve—a trio of professional play-by-play men with a listenership that spanned the country. It was only a matter of time before Kenny, armed with a toy tape recorder, yearned to follow in their footsteps. Some 3,000 broadcasts later, Kenny Albert has amassed countless stories from the world of sports and media. A Mic for All Seasons is his chronicle of a charmed yet unlikely journey, from a youth spent calling games in his bedroom for a fictitious audience to ten-hour bus rides with a minor-league hockey team, plus the time he worked five different sports in one chaotic, 19-day stretch. The only play-by-play broadcaster who currently calls all four major sports in North America, Albert details the stand-out moments from his three-decade career, including the 1994 Stanley Cup Final, Jose Bautista's bat flip in the 2015 ALCS, and the U.S. women's hockey Olympic gold-medal winning shootout in Pyeongchang in 2018. Part memoir, part behind-the-scenes look at the world of broadcast media, A Mic for All Seasons also features stories about life in the booth, game preparation, travel hijinks, marquee events, meetings with star athletes and coaches, and much more.

O que para muitas pessoas poderia ter sido o fim, para a minha convidada , um acidente automobilístico sofrido quando tinha 15 anos de idade significou a transformação e a mudança de rumo em sua vida. A paraplegia se mostrou a oportunidade para que ela explorasse um potencial até então desconhecido e uma nova porta se abriu rumo às vitórias, pessoais e esportivas. Quatro anos após o acidente ela se tornou uma paratleta e hoje é a única brasileira ter representado o Brasil em Paralimpíadas de verão e de inverno. O acidente lhe tirou o movimento das pernas, mas o esporte lhe deu asas, e foi através das suas conquistas que ela viajou o mundo para buscar crescer, aprender, inspirar e vencer. Ela venceu nada mais, nada menos do que cinco das seis edições que participou da Corrida Internacional de São Silvestre. Já venceu as Maratonas de Porto Alegre, de Florianópolis, de São Paulo, a Meia Maratona de São Paulo, a Meia Maratona do Rio, a Volta da Pampulha e as 10 Milhas da Garoto. Participou de algumas das principais maratonas do mundo. Foi 9. colocada Nova Iorque, 6. colocada em Chicago, quatro vezes top 10 em Londres, incluindo um 5. lugar, 4. colocada em Boston e quatro vezes top 5 em Berlin, com um bronze em 2021. Nos Jogos do Rio 2016 disputou três provas e em todas foi top 10. Ela é a atual Recordista Brasileira dos 100 e dos 1.500 metros. No esqui cross-country ela fez história ao tornar-se a primeira atleta brasileira a participar de uma edição dos Jogos Paralímpicos de Inverno, em Pyeongchang 2018 e na edição de Beijing, em 2022, foi top 10 nas três provas que disputou. A parceria que formou com o seu treinador e marido,  vem fazendo com que seus tempos sejam cada vez melhores. Nos últimos dois anos ela conquistou importantes resultados tanto em Copas do Mundo quanto em Mundiais de esqui. É com enorme prazer que recebo aqui hoje a única pinhãoense que foi duas vezes porta bandeira da delegação brasileira dos Jogos Paralímpicos de Inverno, a dona da primeira medalha de ouro conquistada para o Brasil em um mundial de esportes de neve, uma das mulheres mais velozes do planeta, Aline dos Santos Rocha.

Liu Jiayu goes by Birdie because of the height she gets in the half-pipe -- she FLIES. That said, it hasn't always this way. Liu Jiayu started snowboarding at age 11 when the sport didn't really exist in China, so she didn't have people on the mountain she could copy or learn from...she spent her first day falling down the mountain: "It was the kind of day I'll never forget" she says. Flash forward to today, and this 6x World Cup Champion and Olympic silver medalist, is the face of snowboarding in China. She's an Olympic veteran, having competed in four separate Games (2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022), and was the first woman to win an Olympic medal in snowboarding in the history of China (Silver, PyeongChang, 2018). That said, what's most important to Birdie, is having fun and using the sport to grow. In today's episode, Birdie shares about her greatest role model, her grandma, and her prioritization of happiness. "Love yourself. No one else is you, so you have to be the one to have the confidence to be happy with who you are." Production Team's Favorite Quote: "Everybody is the same. Nobody is higher or lower. You just do you." This was our team's favorite quote because it encapsulates Liu's deep humility, which can sometimes evaporate with success. Not for her.
