Stories of Women and Girls in Canadian Nordic Skiing History
Women have been long time participants and competitors in Nordic skiing in Canada, yet their history and stories often go untold. On the Ski Like a Girl podcast, we seek to uncover and share these stories by digging into the lives of women in skiing. Who were these women and what are their stories?
Whether you are listening to us on the slopes, on the road, or wherever life takes you, join us in learning about inspiring women who built community pushed boundaries and excelled in Nordic skiing in Canada.
The Ski Like a Girl Podcast is an collaborative academic podcast that combines research from oral history interviews, archives, and other academic sources to provide insight into the lives of women and girls in Nordic sports, including, cross country skiing, touring, biathlon, and ski jumping.
Listen to the Ski Like a Girl Podcast on Aviary and Spotify.
