Mikaela Shiffrin had troubles with goldfish

While these fishes make their way to most of the homes in a fish tank, the goldfish is edible to be eaten. Most people try it out as there is a certain process for making the fish. Just like freshwater fish, there are different recipes for making a perfect goldfish recipe. However, things got out of hand for Shiffrin. She talked about eating goldfish and how a trip to the dentist scares her. Shiffrin spoke about how it did not go as planned with the goldfish.

“DH training run canceled today… which gives me way too much time to dwell on the fact that I feel asleep eating goldfish last night and woke up to a massacre of crumbs in my bed which was not only uncomfortable but I’m really not sure how my dentist is going to feel about it,” said Shiffrin.

By getting knocked out of the first two signature competitions- Giant slalom and slalom competition, her Olympics has not been up to the mark. She could not believe what happened this year as all her interviews were knocked out with emotions. But, she is making a comeback in the upcoming downhill session. Finishing ninth in the training session for the competition, Shiffrin can raise her game and win, yet another gold medal.

“I haven’t decided for sure. I mean, today gives me a little bit more positivity. I would love to race this downhill, so that’s the plan,” said Shiffrin.
