Justin Olsen is the push driver for the four-man sled that won a gold medal at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, as well as both the 2009 National and World Championships. Amazingly, Olsen entered the bobsled scene only two years ago, coming on strong and making the World Cup team in his first season. Olsen joined Team Holcomb, winning two silver medals and two bronze medals in the first half of the World Cup Tour and a silver medal at the inaugural World Cup in Whistler, Canada.
Olsen attended the United States Air Force Academy for one year before trying out for the bobsled team. He has three siblings: Brittany, 23; John, 12; James, 10. Olsen played football in high school and college, and his favorite team is the Green Bay Packers.
