From St. Scholastica nordic to the mountain bike World Cup (with John Wessling)

John Wessling has lived all over and has pretty much done it all in sport, both endurance sports and skill sports. He self-effacingly describes himself as “the best of the worst” in most of these endeavors, but he’s also a three-time Cat 1 national champion in cross-country mountain bike racing, so take that last assessment with a grain of salt.

Wessling brings this cross-disciplinary perspective to bear as he discusses why nordic skiers make the best athletes, why he puts motocross world champions on the SkiErg, the single thing that mid-pack Birkie skiers should be thinking about, and much more.
