Sadie Maubet Bjornsen

Two-time Olympian

1. Sadie is the first American to wear the yellow FIS World Cup Leader's bib.
2. She is active with Fast and Female because she believes that sports are the best way to teach women to be powerful and not be afraid to chase after something they want.
3. Sadie started as an alpine skier and eventually switched to cross country skiing when she got frustrated with “getting cold riding up the chairlift.”
4. She is really into "living off the land," and has learned to appreciate the beauty of growing a garden from scratch, fishing, searching in the woods for berries and mushrooms, and hunting.
5. Sadie is scared of the dark, which is why she lives in Alaska (only in the summer!).
