Brittany Hudak (born June 2, 1993) is a Canadian biathlete and cross-country skier.[1]

Early life

Hudak was born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan with only one arm.[2] She grew up participating in cross-country running and track and field. In 2011, at the age of 18, she was introduced to the sport and Paralympics by a former Paralympian 2014 teammate Colette Bourgonje.[3] She never heard of the sport of Paralympic Nordic skiing. Hudak was told about the opportunity to compete against other disabled athletes on a more level playing field.[2] She acknowledged that it wasn't easy at first, but was intrigued enough to keep going. She started out competing in Saskatchewan.[2]

Career

In 2014, after only two-years in the sport, she beat one other athlete for a spot on Team Canada for the 2014 Winter Paralympics in Sochi, Russia.[2] Hudak was 2014-15 World Cup Overall Cross-Country Champion.[4] In December 2017, as part of Team Canada, she won bronze at the para-Nordic World Cup. In 2019, at the 13th World Para Nordic Skiing Championships in Prince George, British Columbia, she won silver in the mixed relay.[3]

At the 2018 Winter Paralympics, she won a bronze medal in the women's 12.5 kilometres biathlon event, which was her first Paralympic medal in her career.[5][6][7]

During the 2021-2022 World Para Nordic Skiing World Cup season in December 2021, it made a stop in Canmore, Alberta. Hudak won for four gold and a silver. She won two golds and a silver in women's standing cross-country and two golds in biathlon.[8][9]

At the 2022 Winter Paralympics, Hudak captured her first medal of the games by winning bronze in the 15 km classical standing.[10][11]
