I want your best versus my best. I don't want to be given anything. I want the best people going to represent the United States.
How do you balance the rigorous demands of military service with the intense training required to compete at an Olympic level? First Lieutenant Riley Tejcek knows this challenge all too well. In this episode of 'Livin the DREAM with Matt Scoletti', Riley, a US Marine Corps officer and member of Team USA's National Bobsled Team, shares her remarkable story of resilience and determination. Growing up in Indiana, Riley never imagined herself in the military, let alone on an Olympic team.
A chance meeting with a Marine recruiter set her on a path she never anticipated but fully embraced. The Marine Corps taught her that true leadership is about serving others, a principle that has been instrumental in her athletic pursuits. Competing not just against international athletes but also her own teammates, Riley's journey is a testament to hard work, dedication, and the power of a supportive community.
Tune in to hear how she manages to excel in both arenas and what keeps her motivated through the toughest challenges.
