The Devon Kershaw Show: cross-country skiing’s most famous international couple

Nathaniel HerzOctober 18, 2023

A couple of years ago, Swedish Olympic medalist cross-country skier Maja Dahlqvist matched with U.S. sprinter Kevin Bolger on Tinder.

Nathaniel HerzMarch 29, 2023

Oh, you thought we were done? Nat had the chance to interview Norwegian cross-country skiing legend Petter Northug Jr. for his story for the New York Times about the Holmenkollen ski marathons.
