Legendary alpine skier, Olympic medalist and holder of numerous world records.
I've always believed that the pain is worth it.
I'm not afraid of the challenge, I embrace it.
My mother taught me that nothing in life is given - you have to work for it.
Coming back at 41 proves I'm still hungry for more.
Every record I've broken was a result of relentless work and dedication.
You have to love the sport more than the pain.
Success is about pushing through adversity and coming out stronger on the other side.
