Corey Cogdell-Unrein is a two-time Olympic medalist who also took home a bronze in women"s trap shooting at the 2008 Beijing games.
People are like, "How did you get her to marry you?" Unrein said with a grin. And I"m like, "You know, I"m a smooth talker maybe. I don"t know." I hit a home run when I got to marry her. She"s one in a million. There are not too many times you can say, "My wife is a three-time Olympian and has two medals." It"s so cool to watch her achieve her dreams. It"s so cool that we"re both kind of at the pinnacle of our sports. It really helps our relationship.
