LVF Founder Lindsey Vonn Graces the Cover of TIME Magazine's November Edition

Lindsey Vonn Foundation founder and Olympic legend Lindsey Vonn is defying odds once again. In a recent TIME Magazine interview, our gritty leader opened up about her surprising plan to return to competitive skiing and her continued dedication to empowering young women.

After retiring in 2019, Vonn underwent major knee surgery in 2024 and is now training with hopes of competing at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Cortina. Her comeback, as she told TIME, isn't just in pursuit of athletic achievement. It's rooted in purpose, resilience, and proving that passion has no expiration date.
