Nina’s Gold Medal Win in the World Cup Final sprint in Tromso, Norway

Nina Silitch, of the United States Ski Mountaineering Team, swept the sprint race on Saturday in Tromso City Center. This is the 2nd year in a row Nina has won a gold medal in Tromso. She won the qualification round, the semi final round and the women’s finals.

En route to the finish!

The morning before the race I read a quotation that read, “wake up determined, and go to bed satisfied.”

That is what I did!
