A lot of biggest Olympic sports, like swimming or gymnastics dominate the headlines. This week we wanted to feature an athlete in an overlooked sport who deserves just as much respect.

Brady Ellison has been shooting his shot as an Olympic archer for years. He’s been to three Olympics and has silver-medaled each time. Brady has set the bar in archery with his skill and has an incredible comeback story you might not believe.

Brady talks about how a Slovenian doctor healed his finger injury when he contemplated giving up the sport. It’s something of comic-book lore, and our conversation took a surprising spiritual turn. Enjoy this conversation with the Legolas of the Olympics.
