They won't pay attention to anything else besides that I'm supposed to win gold on that day.
And I really needed to accept that.
And it was like,
Not until the solemn race day that I felt pretty at one with that fear.
Like I could hold it in my hands and say, this is really, really scary.
And I still believe that this is worth it.
You're here to ski the way you know how to ski.
I'm literally not here for the medal and I'm not here for anything else besides just the joy that I get between the start and the finish with really good skiing and powerful skiing.
And that made me feel more connected to my dad than I have in a long time because it was just so solely focused on my technical prowess or my ability to ski that well.
I think it did because both of my parents taught me how to ski when I was a baby and they were both so focused on the technique side of things.
But even as I was racing world cup, winning world cups, my dad would still make these comments, get your hands up or like this or that.
Or he had a couple things that he would always focus on with skiing technique.
And I was like, dad, that doesn't apply here.
Like, that's going to be awkward.
That looks like a very old style of skiing.
But at the end of the day, when I'm skiing my very best, I'm doing the things that he said I should do.
I'm doing the things that my mom tells me I should do.
So I'm always like...
Darn it.
They're totally right.
