The Israeli bobsled team, captained by AJ Edelman, overcame a burglary and vandalism just days before their historic debut at the Winter Olympics. Despite the violation and repeated adversity, including discrimination and being turned away from hotels, the team remained focused on their goal to compete and inspire future generations. Edelman, who has sacrificed financially and personally for over a decade to lead the team, emphasized resilience and a mindset of victory over victimhood. The team, humorously named 'Shul Runnings,' does not expect to win medals but aims to set a precedent for Israeli participation in winter sports, hoping their journey will have a lasting impact beyond their own careers.
