Presented by ConocoPhillips Alaska Even after decades of competitive racing, Nordic skiing still feels like play to Kikkan Randall. 'I love the sensation of gliding,' Randall said. 'I still ski up the hills so I can ski down them. The more I go up the hill, the more jumps I get to do.' The five-time Olympian came to know and love that sense of play as a kid thanks to the Nordic Skiing Association of Anchorage. Now, as the nonprofit's executive director, she helps Alaskan youth make those same discoveries in the flurry of club-sponsored ski races and Junior Nordic programs that take place each winter.
