On the latest episode of the Every Student Every Day Podcast, Superintendent Dr. James Franchini speaks with three-time Olympian Rudy Winkler ('13). Winkler explains how he got involved with the Hammer Throw event, his most recent experience at the Paris Olympics, what's next for him and more!
While Kristi's away at the Olympics, we kick off this episode with a conversation between producer Christine O'Donnell and world rowing commentator Colleen Saville about Kristi's races in Paris. Then we dive into her interview with Rudy Winkler, American track and field athlete who competes in the hammer throw and weight throw. Rudy is the current American Record Holder in the hammer toss with a distance of 82.71m. He has finished in the top 8 at his last 4 World Championship and Olympic finals, and is a 3x Olympian who is on Team USA in Paris with Kristi right now. Rudy shares with Kristi how this niche sport was perfect for a self-described “big kid,” what makes this sport a 98% mental game, and how avoiding superstition and embracing anxiety has helped him achieve his goals. Plus, Rudy gives us a hint of how you can tell if he's happy with his throw or not. They also speak candidly on their complicating feelings about dedicating so much of their lives to sport, and how they find balance (or not) with other priorities.

Some coaches make training seem complex. Some make it seem oh so simple. And when you play the long game it is. Coach Paddy McGrath has been coaching Rudy Winkler for nearly 15 years. Slow and steady he's developed into the American record holder and a favorite for the podium at this summer's World Championships. On this week's episode he joins us to talk about his approach to training, teaching, and throwing.

Here's a little article I wrote back in 2013 to quiet critics who were second guessing Winkler's college choice of an academic powerhouse over a throwing powerhouse.
We sit down with the Rudy Winkler! 2x Olympian, The American record holder in the Hammer throw & one heck of a good guy. Come along for the ride and listen to one of the best hammer throwers to ever do it. You won't be disappointed.
Paddy McGrath is an enigma in coaching circles. That's because it's not easy to find coaches, at least in the US, who in the same session, you will find teaching a beginner how to hold a hammer for the first time one moment and directing a long time protégé, American record holder & Olympian the next. But that happens where Paddy coaches, and it happens often. Paddy was a 2000 Olympian for Ireland in the hammer throw and six time national champion for Ireland. As a coach, he has mentored 7 high school men to over 70m in the hammer. One of these throwers, Rudy Winkler, went on to break Lance Deal's long-standing US Men's record in the hammer throw, earning a spot on the 2021 US Olympic Team in the process. For a full bio on Paddy's accomplishments click https://gojaspers.com/sports/mens-track-and-field/roster/coaches/patrick-mcgrath/1844 (here). Paddy and I did this interview in person, in an Irish bar in the Bronx, New York (of course… where else?). It is easily one of the most engaging talks I've had with a coach friend and colleague and Paddy did not disappoint. Topics: French Onion Soup, Gander (Newfoundland) & what we were doing on 911, dealing with Games Environments, 2012 Games, Paddy's background as an Irish Hammer Thrower, mentors Roman Feldman (assistant coach to Dr. B) & Harold Connolly, high school weight throw War Stories… Developing high school hammer throwers, Bob Gourley's HS hammer list, 4 vs. 3 turns… toe vs. heel turn entry, Rudy Winkler's progression, implement weight progressions in high school, Rudy's technical development, Starting beginners in the hammer throw, comparing cueing notes, maximal strength in the hammer, avoiding injury, “nothing gets in the way of throwing”, learning from Russians, planning for hammer training, strength training in hammer programming, VBT, Not ‘pressing' Rudy Winkler, Rudy's Eugene 2021 performance, the hammer facility in Eugene, preparing for big competitions, light vs. competition vs. heavy weight hammers in training, Kevin McGill's ‘Hammer Notes', potential for scholarships in hammer throwing, will coaching the hammer negatively influence SP & DT technique, The Fat Bastard of SC & expectations we put on our athletes, safety in the hammer.
