  • On this episode of the Special Chronicles Podcast Series: “A Recap of Turin 2025,” Daniel Smrokowski sits down Mallory Marvin, a Special Olympics USA athlete who competed in Snowshoeing at the Special Olympics World Winter Games in Turin, Italy, in 2025. Mallory has been involved with Special Olympics Movement for 14 years and is a true leader in the movement, representing not just her sport but the incredible spirit of the Special Olympics community. Throughout this episode, we dive deep into Mallory’s journey, starting with how her disability has shaped who she is today—both in terms of the challenges and joys she's faced. She also shares the story of how she first got involved in the Special Olympics movement and what inspired her to take that first step. Mallory has participated in a variety of sports through Special Olympics—from athletics to snowshoeing—and she opens up about what each sport means to her and why she loves competing in them. We also explore how Mallory became an Athlete Leader and the impact that has had on her as both an athlete and a person. Mallory takes us behind the scenes of her training for the Special Olympics World Winter Games 2025, describing her experience preparing for one of the most prestigious events in Special Olympics history. She shares insights into the selection process, training routines, and the mental preparation it takes to compete on a global stage. But it’s not just about the competition. Mallory highlights the camaraderie and community spirit that are at the heart of the Special Olympics experience, both in terms of athletes supporting one another and the global network of Special Olympics around the world. In the episode, Mallory also reflects on her life outside of sports—her volunteer work at Our House of Hope Animal Rescue & Pet Food Bank, her love for traveling (with 13 countries already under her belt), and her dedication to giving back to the community. Wrapping up, Mallory shares her excitement for the future—whether it's in her athletic career, leadership roles, or personal life—and offers inspiring advice for athletes just starting their own Special Olympics journeys or anyone facing their own challenges.
