There are times when one certain snow condition is great for one particular brand of skis.
Setbacks motivate me.
It seems kind of silly, but it's really nice to chill in the kitchen with a friend and bake. It relaxes me, and mixing is probably my favorite part.
I want to be known for my athletic achievements, not my celebrity.
In the winter, I'm always in Europe. July and September are New Zealand and Chile camps. I'm always on the road.
I wouldn't change being married. It was good for me, and I was happy for a period of time, and I learned a lot about myself.
For someone to say I am overweight is completely ridiculous.
I can be normal by myself; no one notices me.
Be proud of yourself when you do keep going!
I enjoy just showing people other sides of me, especially everyone always sees me in my helmet and ski suit. It's nice to just show everyone me, just me in my everyday clothes or just me in high heels or just me not in my ski gear, basically.
Ninety percent of the day is working out. Sometimes I get my nails done and go to the grocery store.
I never thought my face would be on the cover of a Red Bull Six Pack.
I love skiing fast. You're going 80 to 85 m.p.h. down an icy slope, and I love it.
Especially when I'm in the gym, I get really motivated by hip-hop.
