I didn't win this race!

I had the thrill of skiing with Mikaela Shiffrin and some of

her family members. Well, skiing with Mikaela goes like this:

she says "Let's take a run," and you see her take two or three

runs, then she's disappeared.

When you reach the bottom of the trail, she's patiently waiting,

looking like she might have had time for a sandwich while

waiting for me. Mikaela and her family are a class act. I got to

know them while I was a journalist. That's her mother, Eileen,

next to Mikaela and Aunt Anne next to Eileen. Lovely people.
