It's 182 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: about this season only and NCAA only, and her numbers 183 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: are only okay. 184 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 2: End quote.

To soccer, the Kansas City Current 191 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: has acquired forward and friend of the Show Penelope Hawking. 192 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: The Current sent three hundred and fifty thousand dollars in 193 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: intra league transfer fund in exchange for Hawking, who was 194 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: BFC's leading goal scorer last year. Hawking was the seventh 195 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: overall selection in the twenty twenty three NWSL draft, playing 196 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 1: for Chicago before getting traded to BFC before the close 197 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: of the summer transfer window August of twenty twenty four. 198 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: Now Chicago actually get a little cash in this deal too. 199 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: CBS Sports Sandra Herrera added this context quote revisiting the 200 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 1: Chicago Stars trade. BAFC paid out two hundred and fifty 201 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: k in twenty twenty four and one hundred k and 202 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Deal included an extra quote ten percent 203 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: on any transfer free BAFC receives in a future transfer 204 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: of Hawking end quote. So the Stars get an additional 205 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: thirty five thousand dollars on top of the initial three 206 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand dollars already received end quote. Were 207 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: you following anyway, Chicago gets paid even more in order 208 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: for Bay to send Hawking to the Current. Here's hoping 209 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: the Hawking acquisition isn't related to Tema Showinga's availability or 210 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: the health of any other forwards INKC. Maybe the Current 211 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: just have a mind to shore up their depth in 212 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: case of an injury like Temla last season. Either way, 213 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: Between Hawking, tem Wa de Binya, Michelle Cooper, Low Labonta, 214 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: and Croi Bethune, the Current are stacked. Finally, want to 215 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: give you an update on the Iranian women's soccer team. 216 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: We told you earlier this week about how members of 217 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: that team are considered to be in great danger by 218 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: returning to Iran due to both the continued US and 219 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: Israeli strikes on the country, as well as the player's 220 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: decision to remain silent during the national anthem ahead of 221 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: their first game of the Asian Cup. After Iran was 222 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: knocked out of the tournament, five members of the team 223 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: were granted asylum by Australia, where the event is being held, 224 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: and an additional athlete also went on to accept an 225 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: asylum offer and remain in Australia, according to government officials there. 226 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: But the rest of the team went to the airport 227 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Per reporting from the Associated Press, each woman 228 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: was taken aside after passing through security, with officials explaining 229 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: through interpreters about the asylum offer. Though each woman went 230 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: on to board the plane. Sources told The Athletic that 231 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: many of the women chose to return to Iran due 232 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: to concerns for their family back home. Here's an excerpt 233 00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: from Jacob Whitehead's story for The Athletic. 234 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: Quote. 235 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: Before the squad had even left Iran, sources with direct 236 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: knowledge of the team's situation described how each had been 237 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 1: asked to leave a large financial guarantee with the Iranian government, 238 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: with their families, identities and whereabouts also logged. If there 239 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: are any family businesses, they will be in the hands 240 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: of the IRGC until the player returns. One person explained. 241 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: They will then also have to ensure that they are 242 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: well behaved according to the regime's terms until the money 243 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: is paid back. Those sources added how on arrival in Australia, 244 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: players passports were confiscated to make absconding more difficult, while 245 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: their phones were also tapped or confiscated. With strikes raining 246 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: down in their home country, many players were left unable 247 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: to contact their families to check. 248 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: If they were alive.

It's Danny Aerovitch next joining us now. 255 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: She's a track athlete, cross country skier and biathlete, currently 256 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: competing in her third Paralympics. Born without her left hand 257 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: and forum, she goes by the social media handle the 258 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: one arm Dan, co founder of media company Cultured fan 259 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: of hiking and horseback riding. She's got a cowboy boot 260 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: sponsorship and sling stickers to say. 261 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: Pizza pasta para sport. It's the biathlon bandit, Danny Aravitch. 262 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: What's up, Danny? 263 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 3: What's up? That was a stellar intro. I'm glad you 264 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 3: heard of you stickers, and no, I'm jealous. 265 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: Because my producer Alex and I were out there for 266 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: the Olympics, but we couldn't stick around for the Paralympics 267 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: and we missed out on the stickers. 268 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 4: I'll save you one. I'll save you one. Don't worry, Okay. 269 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 2: I love all of those things. 270 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: You've already had a ton of success, a bunch of 271 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: competitions under your belt. 272 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 2: Already. 273 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: In Milan Cortina, you took sixth in the Para Nordic 274 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: Women's Classic standing, tenth in the Biathlon Women's sprint standing, 275 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: and sixth in Para Biathlon individual standing. Those sixth places 276 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: are your best Paralympic showings yet. 277 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 2: So what went well for you in those events? 278 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 3: Well, Sunday was the Bathlon individual and it was really 279 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: exciting because I actually spent half the race in silver 280 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 3: metal contention. But what's so crazy about the biathlon individual 281 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 3: is for every miss on the biathlon range, it adds 282 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 3: a minute of time. And I was shooting really well 283 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 3: up until the last shot. Now literally shot number twenty 284 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 3: out of twenty I missed, so it added a minute, 285 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 3: which took me out of contention. So it was exciting, 286 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 3: I think for everyone ticket to experience, you know that 287 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 3: I was in it. I was in it until that 288 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 3: last shot, which is frustrating but exciting. And my big 289 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: goal for the Games was to make the classic final. 290 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 3: I've traditionally not been the strongest classic skier, and in 291 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: my only six years across country skiing, I gravitated to 292 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 3: the freestyle or skate technique. More so, the fact that 293 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 3: I even made a classic final was a huge deal 294 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 3: for me. 295 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: I love that in an alternate universe that last shot 296 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 1: hits and everybody gets to see you in silver all 297 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: the way till the end. But I love that there 298 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: was that excitement throughout the race and still a great 299 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: finish for you. We've got the sprint pursued in biathlon 300 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: on Friday, so help us understand the big difference between 301 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: that and the other biathlon events you've already done. 302 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 3: So this is a new format actually to the Paralympic 303 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 3: Games and to our World Cups these past few years. 304 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: It's basically a way we get head to head biathlon 305 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 3: because everything else as intervals starts, so you versus the clock, 306 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: and so we do a qualifier in the morning where 307 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 3: it's again you versus the clock. Very short distance is 308 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: like less than six kilometers. Usually you shoot twice. If 309 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 3: you miss, you get fifteen second added penalty, and then 310 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 3: based off of your morning result, you actually come back 311 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 3: in the afternoon do the exact same race, but you're 312 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 3: seated head to head based on your morning so you 313 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 3: can't blow off the morning. You have to perform well, 314 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 3: but you also know you're probably going to race again 315 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 3: later that day. 316 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 4: And it's one of the most exciting events. 317 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 3: It's actually the event that I've had my World's Cup 318 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 3: individual podium in, so I'm really excited. It can go 319 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 3: really well or it can go really bad, really quick, 320 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 3: which adds a lot of variability, and especially for a 321 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 3: newer skier like me, it puts me in the mix 322 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 3: a lot more, which is really exciting and I think 323 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: for people are new to watching the Paralympics. 324 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 4: Theyre new to watching biathlon. 325 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 3: It's a great event to first tune into because it 326 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 3: is head to head. It's exciting, you know, there's pressure 327 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: when you're coming into the range and someone's right behind you, 328 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: like are you gonna hit your shots and have to 329 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 3: go to the penalty lap? Are they going to go clean? 330 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 3: And it's just a fun event that we get to 331 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: do and it's new as well, so it'll be cool 332 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 3: to see it done at the Paralympic Games. 333 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 334 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: I do love how biathlon's like being a kid who 335 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: acted out in gym class, Like take a lap. 336 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: That's it. Take a lap. 337 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: That's a great description, you know, like like sorry, you're 338 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: in trouble, take a lap if you miss your shot. 339 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: You've also got the twenty k cross country intervals start 340 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: freestanding race which just rolls right off the tongue that's 341 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: coming up on Sunday. 342 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 2: Help us be smarter viewers for that event too. What 343 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 2: should we be watching for? 344 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: The twenty k is our longest race of the game. 345 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 3: So for our race, we do five laps of four kiloanders, 346 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 3: so it's pacing race. It's really easy for people to 347 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 3: burn themselves out or go out too slow since you 348 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: are doing so many labs. It's also the last day 349 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 3: of the Paralympic game, so logistically somewhat of a nightmare 350 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 3: because you're going to go from racing your longest race 351 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 3: to pagging up your stuff and getting out. 352 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: Lactic acid build up just sitting on a plane. 353 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 3: Yep, lactic you know, going to closing ceremony, probably still 354 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 3: sweaty from the race, and then hopping on the six 355 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: am flight the next morning. 356 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 4: So it'll be a long race. 357 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 3: It will be again you versus the clock since it's 358 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 3: the interval start, so you really have to pay attention 359 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 3: to the time. And even if people pass each other 360 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 3: during the race, it doesn't mean they're doing better than 361 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: that person because there's factors involved too in peracross country skiing, 362 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 3: and so it's a long one. But hang on, hang 363 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: in there. It's still worth watching. 364 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 2: You've been an athlete your whole life. 365 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: You started out in soccer and basketball and softball, and 366 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: then tracking cross country for a little bit in college 367 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: at Butler. 368 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 2: When did you first. 369 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: Think like, oh, I want to look into the Paralympics 370 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: and potential making the US team. 371 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 3: It actually wasn't until I was working my full time 372 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 3: job in professional sports. 373 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 4: I was working for the Utah Jazz and I was post. 374 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 3: Collegiately, you know, hadn't been competitively running in a few years, 375 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 3: and I just wasn't feeling as fulfilled as I hoped 376 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 3: i'd be in my professional career, and so I started 377 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: doing some research on the Paralympics. Met a family who 378 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 3: was from the same hometown as me back in Boise, Idaho, 379 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 3: whose daughter was starting on the Paralympic track and field circuit, 380 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 3: and she encouraged me to try it out, you know, 381 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 3: to look into it, help me figure out some races, 382 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: some coaching, and I just started training on the side 383 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 3: while working a full time job, which was really difficult. 384 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 3: And through that training, I got asked to try across 385 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 3: country skiing in late twenty nineteen at a camp in Breckenridge, Colorado, 386 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 3: and that's when I first tried cross country skiing. And 387 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 3: for anyone who hasn't cross country skid, it's a really 388 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 3: technically challenging sport and most my competition has grown up 389 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: doing the sport, so starting it in my mid twenties 390 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 3: was very late to the game, and so I'm still 391 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 3: playing catch up to girls who are a lot younger 392 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 3: than me, but they've been. 393 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 4: Skiing a lot longer than me. 394 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 3: And you know, it kind of created this new dream 395 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 3: for me, Like I didn't have this dream growing up 396 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: because I didn't really know much about Paralympics, didn't know 397 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 3: I fit the bill to compete in the Paralympics. And 398 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 3: so I developed this new dream just about six years ago. 399 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: And I've already gotten two games now in my third 400 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: and have really shifted all so professionally my business career 401 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 3: from working in pro sports now working in the Olympic 402 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 3: and Paralympic sports, which has been really rewarding to see 403 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: it from both the athlete side and the business side. 404 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 405 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you're picking it up pretty quick. You made 406 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: your Paralympic debut with the Summer Paralympics in twenty twenty one, 407 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: running the four hundred meters on the track, and then 408 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: quick COVID turnaround, you were making your Winter Paralympic debut 409 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: just six months later, which is crazy. What do you 410 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 1: think three time Paralympian Danny knows that rookie Danny didn't oo. 411 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 4: Whooah, great question. 412 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 3: I think that three time Paralympia and Danny knows how 413 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: much stuff you get now because like you can roll 414 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,360 Speaker 3: into your first games you're like, oh, yeah, I heard 415 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 3: you get some free gear. 416 00:18:58,400 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 4: I bought it down the Nike. 417 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, Nike, Ralph Lauren, Like, I overpacked so much for 418 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 3: that first Paralympics, with nutrition products, with clothes to wear, 419 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 3: and quickly I realized I didn't need any of it. 420 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 3: So this winter though, has been unique because we had 421 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 3: a full World Cup season leading into the game, so 422 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 3: I've actually been in Europe for almost two and a 423 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 3: half months now, so I did have to have enough 424 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 3: before the Paralympics to survive me through Europe for these 425 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 3: few months. So I was still probably seemingly overpacked, but 426 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 3: it was just because I needed to. 427 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 2: It was worth it. 428 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 4: First two months. 429 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: Ye, Well and this year you don't just get clothes 430 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: and stuff. You get two hundred K over the course 431 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: of your lifetime from that new donor. 432 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 2: How nice is that? 433 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 3: It's I mean incredible. The biggest thing for me, you know, 434 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 3: going from working professionally to trying this Paralympic career out 435 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 3: was I lost, like all the typical benefits someone has 436 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 3: from a full time job. Between your salary and your 437 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 3: four one K and you know, life insurance policies through 438 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 3: your own companies, and so that was one of the 439 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 3: biggest gambles I had to take when I started competing, 440 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 3: was was giving up all of that financial security and 441 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 3: the fact that you know, with the Ross Stevens Award, 442 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 3: now we get that security of a retirement plan, a 443 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 3: life insurance policy is huge. I was actually in Milan 444 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 3: for the Olympic Games for a couple of days during 445 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 3: one of my off weeks, and got to meet Ross Stevens, 446 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 3: who was the donor, and it was really cool to 447 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 3: be able to shake his hand in person and say, 448 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 3: you know, thank you from Team USA athletes. 449 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 4: This is going. 450 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 3: To be really life altering for a lot of our 451 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 3: athletes who who don't have these traditional, you know, career 452 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 3: paths and so all those benefits like have never really 453 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 3: been a reality. 454 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: I just feel bad for Home Depot. They're losing their 455 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: whole workforce. 456 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: So we would always see those ads everybody worked at 457 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: Home Depot. You know, when you look at your first 458 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: Summer Olympics and now this is your second winter vibes wise, 459 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: is there a big difference between summer and winter Games. 460 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 3: Summer Winter Games are vastly different. First off, the number 461 00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 3: of athletes the Winter Games. Just the reality is they're smaller, 462 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: there's less sports. And also with the Winter Games, all 463 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: the villages are really spread out. So in my Summer Paralympics, 464 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 3: all of the sports were there for Tokyo, I believe, 465 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: except cycling because they were in a different part of Japan. 466 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 3: But for the Winter Games, we're so spread out, so 467 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 3: we're the only sport in this Prodozzo village cross country 468 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 3: and biathlon, And to a certain degree, then you're like, 469 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: it kind of feels like any other competition because it's 470 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 3: the same people you see all four years in between, 471 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 3: and it's just very different in that sense. But I 472 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: do love the Winter Games. I think the winter stories, 473 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 3: I mean, just like some of the countries too that 474 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 3: emerge in the winter space. Like right now, what's really 475 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 3: cool is El Salvador. 476 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 4: Is having a moment. 477 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 3: They developed a paracross country ski program, Like they obviously 478 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 3: don't have snow to be skiing on, so they're skiing 479 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 3: on the beach and using sand is like their resistance. 480 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: I saw that video. Now you bring your own special flaw. 481 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: You're not training on sand but you do wear Cowboy 482 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: boots to every race. I know you can't give your 483 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 1: sponsorship a shout out because of roll forty while you're 484 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: during the games, but you know, everyone go to Danny's 485 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: Instagram and make sure you go check it out. 486 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 2: Give that sponsor a little bit of love. 487 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: But I'm wondering if you've got any sort of style 488 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: icon when it comes to Cowboy boots, like anyone who's 489 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: got a great boot game or that you look to 490 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: to see how they're styling them, Because I just got 491 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: my first pair of Cowboy boots in Austin and I'm 492 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: having a little trouble like figuring out how to wear them, 493 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: Like I don't know, it feels like here in Chicago, 494 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: I don't. 495 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 2: Know how to style them.
