Very unfortunately, due to an urgent personal matter, Lindsey Vonn can no longer travel to Colorado for her event this weekend. This event WILL be rescheduled.

Tickets are available on Eventbrite.
About the Book:
82 World Cup wins. 20 World Cup titles. 3 Olympic medals. 7 World Championship Medals.
A fixture in the American sports landscape for almost twenty years, Lindsey Vonn is a legend. With a career that spanned a transformation in how America recognizes and celebrates female athletes, Vonn—who retired in 2019 as the most decorated American skier of all time—was in the vanguard of that change, helping blaze a trail for other world-class female athletes and reimagining what it meant to pursue speed at all costs.
In "Rise," Vonn shares her incredible journey for the first time, going behind the scenes of a badass life built around resilience and risk-taking. One of the most aggressive skiers ever, Vonn offers a fascinating glimpse into the relentless pursuit of her limits, a pursuit so focused on one-upping herself that she pushed her body past its breaking point as she achieved greatness. At once empowering and raw, "Rise" is an inspirational look at her hard-fought success as well as an honest appraisal of the sacrifices she made along the way—an emotional journey of winning that understands all too well that every victory comes with a price.
