At the same time, many people in different countries know Steve Wozniak, have heard about him, read about him, watched or listened to his speeches as a speaker and mentor. After all, he is the co-creator of Apple Inc., one of the most famous American technology companies of our time. Surprisingly, their professional story is very similar to that of Pierre de Coubertin \u2014 the educator, humanist, and sports enthusiast \u2014 and his associates in reviving the modern Olympic movement. Millions around the world know Coubertin, but sadly, only a few know his friends and partners.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our story is not about Steve Jobs or Pierre de Coubertin, but about Steve Jobs\u2019 partner and friend \u2014 Steve Wozniak. That will be one story. The second story will also be about Steve Wozniak, but not as the co-founder of Apple Inc. What connects them are three interesting elements: first, the same name and surname; second, sports; and third, Ukrainian roots.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-edc8606 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"edc8606\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29383\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-attachment-id=\"29383\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/stiv-vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-san-khose-sharks\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"900,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u0421\u0442\u0456\u0432 \u0412\u043e\u0437\u043d\u044f\u043a \u0444\u0430\u043d\u0430\u0442 \u0445\u043e\u043a\u0435\u0439\u043d\u043e\u0433\u043e \u043a\u043b\u0443\u0431\u0443 \u0421\u0430\u043d \u0425\u043e\u0441\u0435 \u0428\u0430\u0440\u043a\u0441\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-fanat-khokejnoho-klubu-San-Khose-Sharks-768x1024.jpg\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Steve Wozniak is a fan of the San Jose Sharks hockey club<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58a8fc1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58a8fc1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Steve Wozniak \u2014 Co-founder of Apple Inc.<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steven Gary Wozniak was born on August 11, 1950, in San Jose, USA. Speaking about his Ukrainian roots, he once said: \u201cMany people ask me: \u2018Steve, are you Polish?\u2019 Because my last name is Wozniak. I answer: \u2018No, I am Ukrainian.\u2019 All my life I wanted to visit Ukraine, and now my dream has come true.\u201d He said this in 2017 when he visited Ukraine and participated in the Olerom Forum One business forum. Believe it or not, this forum took place at the Palace of Sports in Kyiv. Symbolic, isn\u2019t it? A small detail, but quite notable when speaking about Steve Wozniak and sports.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although Steve was not particularly passionate about sports \u2014 in other words, he was not a big fan \u2014 physical activity still played an important role in his life. It is known that during his school years, he was involved in running and baseball. This is not surprising, as these sports are very popular in the United States.\nThere is a particular feature in American society: even if you do not become a professional athlete, your life will inevitably be connected to sports \u2014 at school, college, or university. The expectation of being well-rounded is a defining and widely embraced value. So, even if Steve did not see himself pursuing sports professionally, maintaining health, status, and physical fitness was always important.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In fact, this life philosophy likely led to his passion for Segway polo starting in the mid-2000s. What began as curiosity turned into enthusiasm, and eventually he became one of the most dedicated supporters of this new sport.\nHere is how Steve creatively described his passion for Segways: \u201cI take it almost everywhere I travel. Although I don\u2019t often take it on airplanes. Sometimes I ship it by mail. Once I shipped it from California to San Antonio for just $25. I rented one in Prague. But now, whenever I travel, I drive if it\u2019s less than 12 hours. I go, and then I have my Segways with me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1de38ed elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1de38ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29382\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-attachment-id=\"29382\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/stiv-vozniak-ta-druzhyna-kendis-klark\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-ta-druzhyna-Kendis-Klark.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1024,692\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Corbis\/VCG via Getty Images&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Steve and Candi Wozniak kayak on their property.

And here, as we can see, Steve\u2019s technological talent truly revealed itself. Somehow, he managed to combine cutting-edge technology with sport. This is genuinely unique \u2014 to find a connection between sport and a two-wheeled electric vehicle that also resembles equestrian polo is remarkable.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The modern world is marked by many fascinating phenomena. Modern sport is also highly dynamic and constantly evolving. Against this background, new sports naturally emerge. One such example is Segway polo, which Steve Wozniak came to greatly enjoy. Readers will likely be interested in learning more about this relatively new and increasingly popular sport \u2014 I certainly am.\nAccording to media reports, Segway polo originated in the early 2000s. In particular, some of the earliest matches were played in 2003 and 2004. This is worth verifying, as something similar may have existed earlier. However, these years coincide with the period when Steve became interested in the sport.\nAccording to the International Segway Polo Association:\n \u201cSegway polo is a relatively new and exciting team sport that originated in the United States in 2003, when a version of the modern game was first played during halftime at a Minnesota Vikings show, supported by Mobile Entertainment. However, the sport gained greater popularity starting in 2004, when members of the Bay Area Segway Enthusiasts Group began playing it more regularly and further developed it by attracting teams.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44e4b28 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"44e4b28\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"293\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29381\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo.jpg 440w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" data-attachment-id=\"29381\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/stiv-vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-hraie-u-sehvej-polo.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"440,293\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Image ref 127624742.

Segway polo is very similar to equestrian polo and bicycle polo, from which its rules were adapted.\nThe basic rules are as follows: two teams of five players each hit a ball with mallets, trying to score into the opposing team\u2019s goal. The standard field size is 200 by 128 feet (61 by 39 meters), and the goal measures 8 feet (2.4 meters) wide and 5 feet (1.5 meters) high. A standard match consists of four 8-minute quarters, known in polo as \u201cchukkers.\u201d\nThe ball may be struck with a mallet or with any part of the player\u2019s body or the Segway, but only the mallet may direct the shot toward the goal. A goal cannot be intentionally scored with the body or Segway.\nSteve himself described the process of developing the rules as follows:\n \u201cWe started by trying to mimic the rules of horse polo and bicycle polo. Gradually, we discovered what worked and what didn\u2019t \u2014 and what could be exploited by unscrupulous players like me. For example, we had to determine the appropriate goal size. We set height limits, like in soccer\u2026 We don\u2019t look as professional as soccer, but soccer has been around for a long time.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At first glance, everything seems both simple and complex \u2014 which is natural for any innovation in society. I assume something similar happened with Apple Inc. in its early days.\nToday, Segway polo is gaining popularity in countries such as the United States, Germany, Sweden, Austria, Barbados, Lebanon, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Spain. Moreover, there is now an International Segway Polo Association.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve\u2019s active involvement in the sport led to the creation of the Woz Cup in his honor \u2014 an annual tournament similar to a world championship. Although there were years when the competition did not take place, it remains an inspiring initiative.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3698918 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3698918\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"148\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29380\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo.png 926w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo-300x69.png 300w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo-768x177.png 768w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo-18x4.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-attachment-id=\"29380\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/loho-mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo.png\" data-orig-size=\"926,214\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u041b\u043e\u0433\u043e \u041c\u0456\u0436\u043d\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0457 \u0430\u0441\u043e\u0446\u0456\u0430\u0446\u0456\u0457 \u0441\u0435\u0433\u0432\u0435\u0439 \u043f\u043e\u043b\u043e\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Mizhnarodnoi-asotsiatsii-sehvej-polo.png\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">International Segway Polo Association logo<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-004d0e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"004d0e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To understand the scale of the spread of Segway polo, it is worth noting the geography of the Woz Cup tournaments. Thus, the first tournament took place in 2006 in Auckland, New Zealand; in 2007 \u2014 in California, USA; in 2008 \u2014 in Indianapolis, USA; in 2009 \u2014 in Cologne, Germany; in 2010 \u2014 in Bridgetown, Barbados; in 2011 \u2014 in Folsom, California, USA; in 2012 \u2014 in Stockholm, Sweden; in 2013 \u2014 in Washington, USA; in 2014 \u2014 it was not held; in 2015 \u2014 in Cologne, Germany; in 2016 \u2014 it was not held; in 2017 \u2014 in Gemer, Germany; in 2018 \u2014 it was not held; and in 2019 \u2014 in Stockholm, Sweden. Thus, we can see that for a long time the Woz Cup was held regularly and was largely mobile in nature, meaning that annual competitions were organized in different countries. However, there were exceptions, with certain years when the tournament did not take place. Unfortunately, the reasons for this are unknown.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve\u2019s recollections of certain tournaments are also quite interesting. For example, speaking about 2009, he said:  \u201cWe thought Barbados would be something like the Jamaican bobsled team. We had great respect for the German team; we heard the Austrians were also very good. We went there thinking we had a chance to win. And in fact, we were lucky. We lost one match to Austria. We made it to the final, and Barbados\u2026 well, when we first watched them, we realized they were very good. They could hit the ball well and quickly, with a motion similar to a soccer throw.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reflecting on his own success in Segway polo, Steve recalled:  \u201cOnce I scored five backward shots without even looking at the goal. It\u2019s strange, because I find it difficult to score when I\u2019m facing it.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve also shared thoughts on the future development of this remarkable sport:\n \u201cI don\u2019t know if this is something that could ever be played at the Olympics. But anyone who has a signed Segway polo poster will have a real collector\u2019s item.\u201d\nI would add that the development of the Olympic Games and the inclusion of new, progressive, youth-oriented, and technological sports could eventually lead to Segway polo becoming part of the Olympic family, perhaps even in the near future.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steve Wozniak\u2019s connection to the Olympic movement is also noteworthy. For example, in 1984 he donated $100,000 to the Organizing Committee of the Olympic Games in Los Angeles \u2014 truly a commendable act, especially considering that the Games were held in the United States.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another interesting connection to Olympic traditions and philosophy is his wife, Candice Clark, who competed in the 1976 Olympic Games as part of the U.S. canoe and kayak team. She also participated in national championships and world championships. Continuing the Olympic theme in Wozniak\u2019s life, it is worth mentioning that his daughter Sarah worked as a lawyer for the U.S. Olympic Committee.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another sport that Steve enjoys is hockey. According to media reports, he is a fan of the San Jose Sharks hockey club.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7016a08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7016a08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"599\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29379\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia.png 599w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia-300x209.png 300w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" data-attachment-id=\"29379\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/loho-zaly-slavy-mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia.png\" data-orig-size=\"599,418\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u041b\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0417\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u0421\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0438 \u041c\u0456\u0436\u043d\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0433\u043e \u043c\u0430\u0440\u0430\u0444\u043e\u043d\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0433\u043e \u043f\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Loho-Zaly-Slavy-Mizhnarodnoho-marafonskoho-plavannia.png\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Logo of the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-566d60f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"566d60f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Steve Wozniak \u2013 Cement Truck Driver<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I found not much information about Steve Wozniak. There is especially little information concerning his personal biography. At the same time, there are quite a number of materials about Steve\u2019s sporting achievements. Here is a short list of Steve Wozniak\u2019s sporting successes: in 1937 he won the U.S. National Five-Mile Swimming Championship; on July 26, 1954 he finished third in a 41.8 km swim in Atlantic City; in 1956 he won a 54 km (32-mile) swim on the Nile River; in 1957 he won five- and ten-mile competitions at the Canadian National Exhibition; he took part in an 88 km (55-mile) swim on the Paran\u00e1 River in Argentina in 1961; he finished third in several 36-kilometer (22.5-mile) marathon swims around an island in Atlantic City, USA; he swam 9 miles around Buffalo Harbor with his legs tied when he was 71 years old; he participated in the Travers\u00e9e internationale du lac St-Jean, organized by Gilles Potvin; in 1979 he received the title of Honor Swimmer in the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame. Such results truly deserve attention and recognition.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ukrainian press in the United States wrote quite actively about Steve\u2019s performances. For example, in 1948 it was mentioned: \u201cSteve Wozniak of Buffalo, New York, recently won the world 10-mile swimming championship at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto. Steve, who last year received $1,000 for third place, received $5,000 for winning the marathon this year. Then, five days later, Steve covered a 12-mile distance in 5 hours 18 minutes and took second place in a race at Lake George, New York. Steve received $1,000 for this result.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is also interesting and unique information that in 1948 Steve Wozniak could have been a participant in the Olympic Games in London (United Kingdom). It was written as follows: \u201cSteve Wozniak of Buffalo, an ace swimmer, was included in the U.S. national long-distance swimming team and will likely represent the United States at the 1948 Olympic Games.\u201d It would have been very good if Steve had taken part in the Olympic competitions.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f76256 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1f76256\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"220\" height=\"307\" src=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-29378\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets.jpg 220w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets-215x300.jpg 215w, https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets-9x12.jpg 9w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" data-attachment-id=\"29378\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/en\/2026\/05\/22\/stiv-vozniak-ta-sport-dvi-istorii-dva-zhyttia\/stiv-vozniak-plavets\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"220,307\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\u0421\u0442\u0456\u0432 \u0412\u043e\u0437\u043d\u044f\u043a \u043f\u043b\u0430\u0432\u0435\u0446\u044c\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vilni-media.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Stiv-Vozniak-plavets.jpg\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Steve Wozniak is a swimmer<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f67c7fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f67c7fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1956, the newspaper Svoboda informed readers about Steve\u2019s success: \u201cBy the way, speaking about swimming and Buffalo, New York\u2026, 40-year-old Steve Wozniak of Buffalo, one of the outstanding stars of long-distance swimming, was entered to participate in the World Long-Distance Swimming Championship in Atlantic City, New Jersey, which took place on Wednesday, July 18.
