The Run That Changed American Luge: Chris Mazdzer’s Olympic Silver Story

Four-time Olympian Chris Mazdzer helped put U.S. men’s singles luge on the medal map—winning Olympic silver at PyeongChang 2018 and becoming the first non-European to medal in the event. In this episode of Inside the Rings, Chris takes us inside a sport most fans only see in 60-second bursts: the razor-thin margins, the pre-run routines, and the mental reset when everything is moving at full speed. We talk about the pressure of the Olympic stage, what it really takes to stay sharp through four runs, and how elite athletes build confidence when the risk is real. In this conversation, you’ll hear: * What separates a clean run from a costly mistake * The mindset Chris used to handle fear, doubt, and expectation * The unseen grind behind a “one-minute” Olympic moment * Lessons for athletes, coaches, and anyone chasing excellence 🎧 Listen now—and if you enjoyed this story, subscribe to Inside the Rings wherever you get podcasts.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
