I watched my daughter win Olympic gold. There's a lot no one sees on TV, but it was the experience of a lifetime.

My first assignment at the 2016 Summer Olympics was to deliver a package. My second was to find a food mart that sold bottled water. I wasn't working the event, though. My "job" was being the parent of an Olympic athlete. My daughter, Gwen Jorgensen, was set to compete in the women's triathlon, and our family had flown from Wisconsin to Rio de Janeiro to support her.

These 2026 Winter Olympics figure skaters are bringing the queer energy we need

After performing on Friday (6 February) in the Ice Dance - Rhythm Dance event, Canada's Paul Poirier and Piper Gilles' routine circulated around the internet filling multiple feeds. The pair danced to a mash up of RuPaul's "Supermodel (You Better Work)" and Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy". And when we say it's stunning, it's stunning! The program is full of death defying twirls, lifts, and jumps. There's some hairography and even a bit of voguing before the routine closes as RuPaul demands: "You better work."

Winter Olympics briefing: united by 2022 fiasco, Maier and Smith rise to the top

Four years ago at Beijing 2022, Daniela Maier of Germany and Fanny Smith of Switzerland were the unwilling protagonists of a convoluted medal dispute. Smith had crossed the finish line in third ahead of Maier in fourth. But the race jury flipped the result after ruling Smith had interfered with Maier, despite both skiers disagreeing. Smith appealed against the jury's decision to the court of arbitration for sport (Cas), which overruled the officials' decision and deemed that bronze medals should be awarded to both skiers.

When you think about how many Winter Olympics we've had, I just thought it was really strange. I hope people can see my story and the stories of other Black women in winter sports and then, hopefully, we'll have more coming up soon.
