Morgan McNallie Blunck

Morgan McNallie Blunck, wife of professional freestyle skier, Aaron Blunck, is on the podcast! Aaron started skiing when he was just 18 months old, thanks to growing up in Crested Butte in a ski family known for starting the Crested Butte Ski School. Skiing quickly became a passion, and Aaron went from competing in the youth Olympics to being on the inaugural US Olympic team going to the Sochi Olympics. Since then, he’s been a regular competitor on the freestyle competition circuit, notably winning Gold at X Games and being crowned the AFP halfpipe champion in 2017. Most recently, Aaron won bronze at last week’s Dew Tour halfpipe competition.

Morgan and I discuss how she and Aaron juggle his travel schedule with her school and caring for their horses, dogs, and cat. We talk about what it’s like marrying a skier when you didn’t grow up skiing, and how she stays balanced while life feels totally chaotic. Join me in going behind the scenes with Morgan McNallie Blunck.
