Making it down an Olympic skeleton run is, in itself, an act of survival. Making it on to the US Skeleton Team for five straight Olympics over 16 years raises survival to a whole new level. So, 38-year-old Katie Uhlaender is definitely a Survivor, and she's got the resume to prove it.
I think I connect with my higher self in nature when you're standing on top of a peak and it's totally quiet. Nothing beats that if I'm on the beach and I happen to have a day surfing paddleboarding, just being in the ocean, it washes all of my worries away, I'm in flow, that's probably why I've done skeleton for five olympics. I love the feeling of flow Breckenridge colorado Katie Yolanda. This could be the round of Katie Yolanda's life. That was a great find. Clean up hill, one of the games. Thank you. I'm Katie Uhlaender with team usa skeleton and I'm from texas colorado and Kansas. During the pandemic, I ended up working as a tree arborist assistant pulling trees, overthrowing logs and for me just being in the woods. I loved it. I've worked as a rancher, tagging cattle, I've worked at a functional neurology clinic as a post care coordinator with combat veterans, but I think my favorite is the adventure Television. Mostly because of the crew working on Survivor. The crew is like family. I started out testing the challenges and kind of doing P A work. Then I got promoted to camera assistant, finding ways to tell a story using a social experiment, learning something and knowing you're capable even if you fail. That's that's what inspires me
