Chasing Gold: Sarah Blizzard is heading to the 2026 Winter Olympics! 🥇❄️

Meet Sarah Blizzard — a powerhouse Australian athlete whose journey from the track to the ice is redefining what it means to chase big dreams.

Once a standout sprinter and four-time Stawell Gift finalist, Sarah made the bold leap into the world of bobsleigh in 2019 — a sport few Aussies even know exists.

Now, she’s competing overseas with her sights firmly set on qualifying for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Cortina, Italy. From mastering explosive sprint starts to piloting down icy tracks at over 120km/h, Sarah’s story is one of courage, adaptability, and relentless drive.

Having already represented Australia at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, she continues to push the boundaries of Australian sport — all while partially self-funding her journey in one of the world’s most demanding disciplines.

Tune in as we dive into the grit, mindset, and passion behind Sarah’s rise — and how she’s taking Australian bobsleigh to the next level, one icy run at a time.
