Cross-country skiing is one of Canada's most popular winter sports. For most Canadians, it is their favourite way to exercise in nature, but on a professional level it is a much different story. However, behind the veneer of serene athletes gliding through the snow, the world of big money cross-country skiing is a reckless and hedonistic one.  

Peter Oldring's documentary "The Winning Trail" explores this lesser known aspect of the sport through the eyes of cross-country skiing's infamous bad-boy Todd Palmer.
