Mikaela Shiffrin

Though, I think Alterra will be very, very welcoming and supportive of Alpine ski racing. There are a number of people in the senior ranks who have had a lot of involvement in the sport.

She was behind me today, could not catch me. She boarded the chair behind me on #1. No, I did not selfie.

Mikaela had a FB live interview with Sheryl Sandberg last week. Not sure how I missed it.
She talks about the acronym ABFTTB, the lack of female coaches at a high level and how she handles her nerves at big races....and more.

An interesting piece about having some more fun in her life. It came out Sept 14.

I need to get one of those shirts, it will not look as good on me.

T-shirts and hoodies, a variety of colors. Only about 85% of the 400+ comments on her Instagram account were people asking where they can buy one! Which seemed low as I think she had 50K likes!

Thanks, already ordered a shirt.

It’s not exactly for everybody (lots of other cool skiing themed stuff that is nicer) so I get it.
For those with racing in their DNA, it’s fun.

It will look fine. YOU may never look as good as she does.

This one is more my speed.

Physics can be fun!

I saw on MS's instagram story today

She posted a bunch of pics on her Instagram feed

Either she suddenly has a huge amount of time on her hands, or her social media marketing team has shifted into overdrive. I follow her on Instagram and the number of posts have become so frequent; I muted her/her marketing team's Stories just today. Didn't mute Posts, but if it continues like this, might have to do it. Just can't follow someone's life on a daily basis.

HAHA.

I had to do the same with Mancuso a while back. She has nice assets (derrière) and all but it got a little overwhelming day in and day out.

Yeah, really. Imagine our wives catching us looking at that Manusco photo... a la Ted Cruz,

Gotta mute or unfollow if it gets to the point when we have to look to see who's around us when we peruse Instagram.

That's kinda the point of Instagram.
