Fear race awaits
Emotional post: Shiffrin breaks off video in tears
Mikaela Shiffrin has shared a highly emotional video with her fans on Instagram. It shows the world champion in Courchevel, her first race after her crash.
Since her fateful crash and injury on November 30 while leading the Killington giant slalom, the US star had only competed in the World Cup on January 30 in the Courchevel slalom before the World Championships. However, Shiffrin was not yet ready to win again and ultimately finished tenth. Afterwards, she spoke of anxiety disorders and painful thoughts. Now she shows in a video how bad she really felt during her comeback.
"It means a lot to me to be here," says the US American in a selfie video, but then her voice suddenly breaks. Shiffrin is in tears. She has to stop the recording. "A look back after Courchevel," she writes next to her post.
So the video is from her comeback and was recorded just before the World Championships.
100th victory in the Alpine Ski World Cup
On Saturday, the RTL in Sestriere is once again her discipline of fear. "I see myself falling all the time. It's painful," said Shiffrin recently. And yet she is still chasing her 100th victory in the Alpine Ski World Cup.
