On this week's episode, we speak with Hudson Valley native, Team USA Olympic Short Trackback Speed Skater Clayton DeClemente. Clayton will be competing in his first Olympic Games during this year’s Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics. He will be competing in the 1000m and 1500m on February 10th, 12th, and 14th. Before Clayton gets to Italy, we speak about his journey from Hudson Valley kid to Olympic athlete. Not just that, we also discuss Clayton’s love for cars, Italian cuisine, and his cross-country road trips.
