When was the last time you got out of your comfort zone?

Like, really OUT of your comfort zone?

Team USA Olympic Skier Winter Vinecki is a pro at being comfortable being uncomfortable.

And, with a name like Winter, how could she not have ended up in the Winter Games?

She's a first-time Olympian in aerial skiing.

But she ended up in her sport in a strange way.

At the age of 11, Winter set two world records. Once, for being the youngest person to run a marathon on all seven continents and the second for being the first mother-daughter duo to achieve that feat.

She started a foundation called Team Winter to raise money for prostate cancer. While accepting an award, she met Olympic aerialist Emily Cook and the rest is history.

On this Dying to Ask:

How marathon running gave Winter the skills to be successful in aerial skiing

How she made the decision to leave her family at a young age to pursue a new dream
