I was disappointed they took the start down because they took away some distance. I'm in good shape physically, so (the higher altitude) was a bit of advantage I had over the other girls.

I skied good and I couldn't have taken any more risks. I put myself in a good position and now I have nothing to lose.

It's too bad that it has been shortened, it was all over too quickly.

I tried to take some risks and I made a mistake and it threw me off my focus a little bit. Technically, I'm right there with the best girls. It's a little hard to accept (fifth) when the objective is a medal but I'll be there in four years.
