Lindsey Vonn on TODAY: I’m healthy
Lindsey Vonn is coming off three knee injuries in four years, but she does not believe that will slow her down this season.
“I’m healthy,” she said to Matt Lauer this morning on TODAY. “I’ve been working out really hard. I just got back from Chile, and I’m skiing really fast.”
In Chile, she was training with male skiers from the United States and Norway. She was the only woman in the training group.
“I like training with guys because they push me to ski faster and be a better skier,” Vonn said.
Vonn would eventually like to do more than just train with men. She is hoping to convince the International Ski Federation (FIS) to let her race against men in the year after the 2018 Olympics.
