Vermont Born and Raised

Hi! My name is Ben Ogden and I’m a two-time Olympic silver medalist in Cross-Country Skiing from Landgrove, Vermont. 

As a Vermonter, I take the values and lessons from the Green Mountain State on the road with me as I represent the USA on the FIS Cross-Country Skiing World Cup circuit. Before that I raced for four years at the University of Vermont. While racing with the Catamounts, I helped the ski team achieve two runner up finishes at the NCAA Championships in 2019 and 2022. Since then I have represented the United States at two Olympics and three World Championships.

Besides pursuing skiing at the highest level, I hope to use my platform to inspire a culture that values a strong work ethic, humility, and fun in all the communities that I am a part of.
