Mikaela Shiffrin Posts Uplifting Message Following Super-G Olympic Race

Mikaela Shiffrin finished her first race in the 2022 Winter Olympics on Friday after failing to complete her first two events this week.

Shiffrin, the three-time Olympic medalist skier, was attempting to compete in all five women's skiing events this year; she normally competes in three events.

Shiffrin did not finish in two of her best races this week: the slalom and giant slalom. Her two gold medals were previously won in these two events.

On Friday, Shiffrin redeemed herself after completing the Super-G, which is one of her new events this year. She came in ninth place, but was still grateful for the improvement.
