Update: 2024-07-10

Description

Adventure-seeker Alex Honnold is perhaps the biggest climbing star in the world. But the outdoor enthusiast says he would barely be able to get off the ground in today's competitive sport climbing climate. Host Nick McCarvel sits down one-on-one with Alex for the Olympics.com podcast to discuss the event's Olympic evolution. Plus, chats with Paris 2024-bound climbers Brooke Raboutou, Adam Ondra, and Sam Watson.
