Kristi Wagner invites you on her journey to make the 2024 Olympic Team. Each week, she'll share what being an elite athlete in training really looks like: the ups and downs, life on the road, how to stay motivated with a goal so far away, the effects on things like mental health and relationships, and how it can all be thrown off by anything; from a meal to the weather.
The Other 3 Years is a podcast that will serve as inspiration to anyone with a dream they’re determined to make a reality.

No More Silver Medals, with Ben Weatherwax & Michael Fairley | Episode 65
This week Kristi chats with two of her old friends, Ben Weatherwax and Michael Fairley, lightweight Harvard Rowing and Saratoga alumni who just won their race at IRAs.
The guys take us back to the beginning of their rowing careers (in fourth grade!) to high school rowing (including winning Nationals) and through their unconventional roads to Harvard.
We hear about how they helped turn their less-than-stellar program to into one of the top programs in the nation, and learned the lesson that more hard work and dedication is usually the answer. After racking up one too many 2nd place finishes, they made a pledge of “no more silver medals” - and it worked. But watch out for the buoys.
Plus: Kristi is rocking Comfort Plus seats and gelato as she trains in Italy, but her traveling library is weighing her down. Will she and Sophia be able to assemble their fan? Stay tuned. Only two weeks to the Olympics!
