TPM Episode 314: Steven Nyman, World Cup Ski Racer, Olympian


Listen Later

Steven Nyman is one of the most accomplished ski racers I’ve had on the podcast. In a sport where racers can go a whole career without making a podium, Steven stood on podiums around the world 11 times and has three world cup wins to his credit. He’s had an incredible race career, and at almost 41, Steven is still going. On the podcast, we talk about not having the advantages of everyone else, talking his way out of school and onto the Park City Team, making the US Team, living in Europe, winning, money, and a lot more
