On this episode of Women in Sport, we sit down with Annika Malanciski to talk about her journey in Nordic Combined, the realities behind the exclusion, and the fight to push women’s Nordic Combined onto the Olympic programme.Nordic Combined is one of the most demanding sports in winter competition, combining ski jumping and cross-country skiing into a brutal test of skill and endurance. But despite its Olympic legacy, it remains the only winter Olympic sport that does not include women.So what’s it like to train at the highest level in a sport that won’t let you compete on the biggest stage? Why are women still excluded, and what needs to change?Check Annika's documentary, too. "Annika: Where She Lands" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC6naKkdo1c
