You can get a big gust of wind, and your Olympics are over.

Facebook and Twitter have changed how people follow ski racing. In past Olympics, you couldn't stay in touch with the fan base that followed you during the Olympics. They thought they had to wait four years to reconnect.

It's sexy and beautiful to be strong.

I'm not trying to race the whole men's tour; I just want to race one time. If you know me, which most people on the World Cup do, they know that this is a legitimate goal of mine and not a publicity stunt.

I can be normal by myself; no one notices me.

Skiing takes so much out of me, and when I start a family, I want to do it 100%.

I'm not trying to get five medals. I'm not trying to be Michael Phelps.
