Olympic Skimo, with Anna Gibson

Anna Gibson drops by this week to teach us all about Skimo ahead of it's debut in the 2026 Winter Olympics next month! In this episode, Lauren and Anna discuss her entry into the sport and rapid learning curve in the lead up to qualifying for and competing in the Olympics, as well as how her trail experience and fitness translates. She explains the Olympic format specifically; the course, the rules, technique, and things to watch for... and of course we have a brief discussion on Skimo's Olympic debut as a potential template for Olympic trail running.
