as some of the winter Olympics’ biggest names
hit the Olympic promo circuit. NBC caught up with
Olympic gold medalists Shaun White, Apolo Anton
Ohno, and world champion Linsey Vonn for a series
of 2010 Vancouver videos in which three of the
biggest stars on the American Winter Olympic Team
share first-hand accounts on exactly what it takes
to become an Olympic athlete.

at the Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
