Hey everyone! So this post is coming a little later in the day due to my crazy schedule! Finals week is approaching so school is crazy, but no worries as of now blogging is my number 1 priority....dont tell my parents that! :)
Anyways....lets talk a little bit about Lindsay Vonn. I have to admit I may have been a little bias in my selection here seeing as she grew up about 10 minutes from me...but thats besides the point! Lindsay is an amazing athlete to say the least.
Case and point on her amazingness ------>
In 1999 she was the first American to win Italy's Trofeo Tropolino.
After that win, she quickly became one of America's top skiers by the age of 16. It was at this age where she made her world cup debut.
To this day, she has 5 medals at the world championships, and 2 medals in the Olympics. (Both coming in 2010) In 11 seasons in the World Cup she has 41 wins, 80 podium appearances, and 3 overall season titles. In addition to all of that, in 2010 she won 2 seperate sportswoman of the year awards.
She was married in 2007 to Thomas Vonn....annnd enough about that.
When she isnt skiing she loves watching Law and Order, and if you remember she made a guest appearance on the show. (May 24th, 2010) Lindsay also enjoys biking, tennis, and reading.
