change hope life satisfied
I have no idea how this will change my life. I'm pretty satisfied with my life so far, so I hope it doesn't change too much.
change
I have no idea how this will change my life.
change sports running
One of the cool things about ski racing is there is never a perfect run so it's hard to be satisfied in that sense, you can always go that extra step, i don't think any of us have the realistic goal of having the perfect run. Ski racing is the most variable sport out there, conditions change run-to-run, we only get one chance at it and the margin for error is tiny.
confidence hill people tough
Bode is tough on any hill he races. But there's a lot of people out there. The Italians' confidence has to be way up there after what they did at home.
disbelief
I was in disbelief when Raich went out.
gotten point talk
I think I've gotten to the point where I shouldn't be having to talk about Bode.
believe saw ski
When I saw (Raich) ski out I just couldn't believe what was happening.
prefer standing win
I would prefer to win standing up to him.
bummed
I was pretty bummed for him. I don't think there's any way I could have surpassed him.
disbelief sort
I was sort of in disbelief that he went off the course.
attention deserve
It's to be expected. If you're the best, you deserve the most attention for what you're doing.
expected hard words
It's really hard to get words for it. I never expected to be where I am right now.
hard
It's really hard to find the words. This is incredible.
feeling giant last race single skiing
It's something I never would have expected. I was only skiing giant slalom last year, but every single race I've been getting a better feeling on the skis.
