With the Paris Olympics wrapping up just a few days ago, this week's special guest is a Silver medalist (she even let me try on the medal, with is kinda heavy). She talks about beating the best shooters in the world...how the Army and fitness and mental work prepared her...how she got into shooting and why she joined the military...and more. (5:37) Staff Sgt. Sagen Maddalena, an instructor/shooter in the US Army Marksmanship Unit on Fort Moore GA for the last 5 years, just got back from Paris. She goes in-depth on the 3 events she competed in, including some intense shoot offs. In the final one, she got that silver medal for the women's 50m smallbore rifle, an event where she placed 5th in her Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020. (11:57) What has her shooting training, sacrifice, fitness routine been like the last several years leading up to the Olympics? She also talks about the importance of being in the moment, as you go after any big goals! (19:54) SGT Maddalena also discusses how she got started shooting, as a teen in California, going on to be an All-American in college. What she say at shooting events also led her to join the military. This soldier is specific about how the Army got her ready for competitions on the big stage like in France. The excitement also meant some throwing up during the Olympics. Thanks for listening to the #RunTheRace podcast, which I hope you'll subscribe to! Share it with your friends.
