Lindsey Vonn embraces 'life outside of the gym' with moment alongside Chloe Kim, countryside travels and more
Legendary alpine ski racer Lindsey Vonn recently shared glimpses into her life, which featured a moment with two-time Olympic (Winter) gold medalist Chloe Kim, among other things. The three-time Olympic medalist is preparing for her upcoming season after returning to the sport in November 2024.
Lindsey Vonn, an eight-time World Championship medalist, came back to competitive alpine skiing after undergoing successful partial knee replacement surgery. She retired in February 2019 after the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships, in which she won a bronze medal.
She participated in multiple races in December 2024 and clinched a major feat at the 2025 FIS Alpine Ski World Cup. In the super-G race event, Vonn became the oldest skier to register a second-place finish.
Through her recent Instagram post, the decorated alpine skier shared glimpses of her life, which featured her sitting on a red scooter, her moments at NBC shooting, and spending time with her pet, Leo. She also shared a picture with her sister, Laura Kildow, and with the three-time World Championship gold medalist snowboarder Chloe Kim, among other glimpses.

"Life outside of the gym…," mentioned Vonn.
In May 2025, Lindsey Vonn was nominated along with other athletes to the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team for the 2025-26 season. The athletes will be officially announced to the team in September 2025, after they accept the nomination and meet the team's requirements.
Along with her Olympic and World Championship feats, Vonn has 20 World Cup globes and has etched multiple other records under her name.
Elite athlete Lindsey Vonn reflects on the significance of her new ink
Lindsey Vonn is one of the greatest competitive alpine skiers, with 82 World Cup victories, and has earned numerous accolades throughout her prominent career. She recently got a shark tattoo and disclosed the significance of the ink through her Instagram post.
"Nothing good comes from dwelling on the past. We can’t change what’s happened to us but we can accept it, learn from it and move forward. My shark tattoo represents that motto. Sharks have to keep moving forward to survive, they can’t swim backwards or they will die, and they always go after what they want. 💪🏻 So be the shark 🦈 !!" she added.
In 2011, she was honoured with the Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year award and was named the sportswoman of the year by the U.S. Olympic Committee.
