The feel good moment I saw the other day that they highlighted was of a cross country skiing who finished almost last

Maybe I missed the story. What I thought I saw was the 114th guy

I think they were training partners. Trying to get enough points to qualify for the Olympics.

I have no idea if he was supposed to be good, but NBC has their favorites
