Winter Vinecki is an extremely accomplished aerial skier, marathon runner, triathlete and elite obstacle course competitor. After losing her dad at the age of 9 to an aggressive form of prostate cancer, she formed TeamWinter.org a 501 (c) (3) non-profit to raise money for prostate cancer research & awareness. She has raised over $500,000 toward that effort and counting. Winter began racing triathlons at the age of 5 and completed her first Olympic triathlons at 9. 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 also the 2011 recipient of the Annika Inspiration Award. At age 12, Winter was invited to an aerial skiing camp by two-time Olympian, Emily Cook. After completing the week-long camp, Winter moved to Park City, UT to train and compete for the next three years on the Fly Freestyle elite development team. During that time, she set a world record by becoming the youngest person to run a marathon on all seven continents, the youngest person to run 26.2 miles on Antarctica and the first mother/daughter duo to run a marathon on all seven continents. Winter was first named to the US Ski Team in 2016 after winning the NorAm Tour. In 2019, Winter became the U.S. National Aerials Champion and in 2021, captured multiple World Cup titles, finishing the season ranked 2nd overall in the world. Winter made her Olympic debut representing Team USA in her first-ever Olympic Games in Beijing, China in 2022.
