"It’s been wild"- Lindsey Vonn makes her feelings known on her comeback season after appearance in star-studded Paris Fashion Week

Lindsey Vonn reflected on her eventful week, which included great training sessions and an appearance in the star-studded Paris Fashion Week. The American Alpine skier also sent out an inspirational message to her fans.

The 40-year-old returned to the Alpine Skiing season nearly six years after her retirement. Her decision stemmed from her immense love for the sport and undergoing partial knee replacement surgery in April 2024.

Lindsey Vonn has yet to achieve a podium position finish in her races on the Alpine skiing circuit. However, the American shared that she was enjoying the process and hoped to improve her performance in the upcoming races. After an eventful week that included appearances in the Super G in La Thuile, Italy, and the Paris Fashion Week where she donned a Balenciaga outfit, Vonn shared a brief note on Instagram.

The former World Cup Champion urged her fans not to be intimidated by limits and instead experience different sides of themselves.

"A lot happened in one week… from training in Austria to Paris fashion week, racing in Italy and then finally making it home to my dogs… it’s been wild. I enjoy getting to be myself on and off the mountain and showing the different sides of me. You can be strong, competitive, aggressive and also feminine and soft all at the same time! Don’t let anyone put you into a box. Just be yourself 💪🏻❤️," she wrote.
