Jessie Diggins calls it the cross-country skiing season of her wildest dreams. It’s not over yet.
Diggins, who in 2018 teamed with the since-retired Kikkan Randall to win the U.S.’ first Olympic cross-country skiing title, is likely to make more history over the next month.
It could come at the world championships — which start Thursday (TV schedule here) — where she has a chance to become the first American to win an individual gold medal. It will probably happen by the end of the World Cup season later in March.
