Is that why athlete spits?
Lindsey Vonn strictly kept her memoir restricted to her professional life. From skiing with her father, snuggling in a backpack, to becoming the Olympian, she guided the readers through her skiing journey.
Other than this, she explained what she used to do before her racing career. She said, “Here she effectively captures what happens in competition before racing down a hill at 80 mph: the nerves, the rituals, the sense of urgency and excitement at the start, the spitting. I spit a lot”.

Vonn credited her success very much to her father. He was the one who passed the skiing skills to her. Moreover, she was just two and a half years old when he put her on the skis for the first time. At the age of nine, she told her father about the dream of participating in the 2002 Olympics.
Vonn said, “whenever somebody wants to know if I have any wisdom to pass along for their children,” she advises them to focus on the “big picture.” The same advice that her father gave her, helping her in her journey.
