In this episode of Making It To Milan, Dani Aravich chats with Brittany Hudak, a Canadian Paralympic cross-country skier and biathlete representing Canada, as she prepares for her third Paralympic Games. A two-time Paralympic bronze medalist, Brittany reflects on discovering para sport at 18 after being recruited by a 10-time Paralympian in a Canadian Tire store, and how learning to ski later in life shaped her resilience. She opens up about qualifying for Sochi 2014 after just two years in the sport, evolving into a podium contender by PyeongChang and Beijing, and shifting her focus from medal expectations to process-driven performance in Milano Cortina. Brittany also shares the added layers of being a para athlete—from equipment adaptations to accessibility barriers—and the importance of community, character, and celebrating competitors across nations.
