BIO
2022 Olympian Winter Vinecki from Gaylord, Michigan, continues to make a name for herself in the sport of aerials skiing.
Winter is an all-around athlete. She has already achieved two World Records: the youngest person to run a marathon on seven continents, and for being the first mother-daughter duo to do so.
In aerials skiing, she has earned multiple podiums, Olympic and World Championship starts, and more. She snagged her first World Cup podium in Moscow, Russia in 2021 and stood on the podium three more times that same season. Vinecki's 2023-24 season was nothing short of incredible. She reached the podium four times and finished the year ranked second in the world.
Outside of skiing and running, she founded Team Winter, a non-profit organization for prostate cancer research and in awareness in honor of her late father, who passed away from an aggressive form of the disease.
"To get out on the podium, let alone a win, just increases my platform with more awareness to my causes."
