. световни ски новини : Рейзи Щиглер: Не се отказвам от състезателните ски - 13 Април 2012 - 19:01
АЛПИЙСКИ СКИ. Рейзи Щиглер спечели първи подиум в кариерата си за Световната купа в слалома в Офтершванг в началото на март. По-малко от две седмици по-късно, на финалите на сезона в Шладминг, тя получи поредна тежка контузия - третата й сериозна травма за последните четири години. Един сезон на "върхове и спадове".

Рейзи претърпя операция на кръстни връзки и менискус на лявото коляно на 20 март у дома в САЩ. И е твърдо решена да се завърне.

"Аз не се оттеглям" - заяви тя окончателно, в интервю за Jackson Hole News&Guide, докато беше на посещение в Джаксън Хоул. Тя допълни: "Да се нараните в ски състезание не е нещо необичайно. С това може да се справите за шест месеца. Ако тренирате много усилено, можете да се завърнете силни."

Все още с патерици, Рейзи сега отново е в Мауи, Хавай, където тя живее, и е готова да се хвърли с всички сили към сериозна рехабилитация след няколко седмици.

" I would dress up like you would for theater to go to the grocery store. I would put on big hats dark sunnies and big red lip stick if I thought it would really help the fact that going into public on crutches is about the very last thing I feel like doing. I am very over this horrible act that I have put myself through far to many times. I am also sick of trying to drag things around the house and put them away. Pretty much I am ready to walk. My body feels good and I am happy to say that I only have around 10 more days to go before I can attempt some exciting new things like a sunset walk on the beach or just be able to go the store by myself and hang out in the aisle without someone asking me a million questions on why I am on Maui on Crutches. Truly Im not that upset because this amount of time is a cupcake compared to the last injury, I think its just nearly impossible to feel sexy or good about yourself and I do like to feel those things!

To keep you guys up to date, I had my ACL, meniscus and some Femur bone issues operated on, so I am 3 weeks out of surgery and feeling amazing. I have been biking with no resistance and swimming, I have chosen the pool over the ocean in hopes of not getting to excited and drifting off to sea. I have this bad habit of thinking I can do things on crutches most people would never dream of doing with a healthy body so I have to really focus on slowing down and relaxing and healing! Maui has always been a great place for me to heal, mostly because the combination of therapy, beach walks, biking and swimming in April is very appealing and an exciting feat for a wyoming girl. I will be back in the mountains and dry climate in no time but for now its all about getting my body to a place where it feels rested and to a place where I feel I can start charging! I am jumping ahead as usual since I am still not walking but like I said I am going for blue ribbons this time around so I am very motivated.

In the mean time I am working on organizing my life which seems to be a never ending project, visiting with friends, getting motivation to begin my jewelry line ( this involves learning how to make it properly) and learning to play a new instrument which is what Uncle Peter thought I should pick up! Im thinking the Ukulele….. my team mates are all so inspirational I want to contribute!
Here are a couple new photos kevin and I got ourselves into this afternoon. A daily inspiration. ONE LOVE in a very comfortable and sexy ACACIA swimwear dress. Photography Kevin Pritchard and yes another goal; learn more about all the new cameras and post more photos!
ONE LOVE inspiration for my lovely Sarah who lives by this! "
