82. From Tragedy to Triumph: Pat Halgren’s Journey to Paralympic Skiing Greatness
On Episode 82 of the Legaski Podcast, I’m joined by Pat Halgren, an incredible athlete on the U.S. Paralympic Ski Team.
Pat’s story is nothing short of inspiring, from overcoming a life-altering motorcycle accident to becoming one of the top Paralympic skiers in the world.
💪 We talk about:
Pat’s early life and how his family’s skiing legacy shaped his love for the mountains.
The resilience it took to recover after losing his leg and the mindset that fueled his journey back to elite sports.
Training on a single ski and how his father’s unconventional coaching helped him rediscover the slopes.
The importance of finding community, joy, and purpose in skiing—even when the odds seem stacked against you.
🌄 Pat reminds us to “find the beauty in the struggle” and shows that hard work and determination can turn even the toughest challenges into something extraordinary.
