Lucy got a lot of positive feedback from US team coaches: excellent fitness, coachable, and terrific attitude. They want to keep working with her through college and have invited her to do Wednesday over-distance workouts with the biathlon team.
She had some great experiences: warming up and chatting up Susan Dunklee this year's World Championship silver medalist, being coached by Andrea Henkel (in black) who has won 2 gold medals as well as a silver and bronze at the last three Olympics, rooming with Deedra Irwin winner of the 2016 Birkie, and going head-to-head with some of the big dogs in the time trials.
