Words of Wisdom Wednesday 💡
Lindsey Jacobellis has dominated snowboard cross for almost two decades, winning X Games, 10 times, the world championship 6 times, and now an Olympic Gold Medalist.
Jacobellis helped make the wild sport of snowboardcross famous. Who could forget her premature celebration as she approached the finish line in the 2006 Turin Games, an ill-timed board grab that sent her tumbling out of the lead? In a way, she became one of the best-known silver medalists of all time.
Now Jacobellis will be remembered as the first American gold medalist at the Beijing 2022 Olympics.
Jacobellis was 20 when she made the mistake in Turin. Now 36 and in her fifth Olympics, she became the oldest U.S. woman to win a gold. The 16 years is also the longest gap between medals for any U.S. woman.
She is the definition of grit and determination!
