Winter Vinecki - A 2022 Olympian (#15th), US National Champion, World Cup Champion, and Global Ambassador for wellness brand, Juice Plus+

An Olympic Athlete from Michigan, Winter started competing at a young age. She ran her first 5K when she was just 5 years old, her first 10K when she was 8 years old and a 10-miler at age 10. Winter achieved two World Records before she turned 15: firstly, the youngest person to run a marathon on seven continents, and secondly, for being the first daughter-mother duo to do so as her mom joined her on her quest. 

She went on to become the Ironkids National Champion for 2010 & 2011 and spent three years as the official ambassador of the sport. Winter was first named in the US Ski Team in 2016 after winning the North American Tour. She is now going on her seventh year on the US Ski Team and has garnered results such as the gold medal at the 2021 Moscow World Cup. After Beijing 2022, she also became the first "Winter" to compete in the Winter Olympics.
