Check out this math: currently Lindsey Jacobellis has earned almost half of the total gold medals the US has won so far. Jacobellis just won her second gold at Beijing which brings the total US tally to five. Lindsey has made an impressive two-decade career as a snowboard cross-athlete, and these gold medals are amazing for anyone to have earned – that she’s still at the top of her game is nothing short of spectacular. (Let me know when Ice Slipping is an Olympic event – until then I remain a happy non-contender.) Congrats to Lindsey on the double gold accomplishment.
