Jessie Diggins in Minneapolis: the scene / vibe / spectacle

An incredibly inspiring homecoming for the greatest XC skier the USA has ever produced.
FIS: how about a couple World Cup races in North America (meaning us and our Canadian friends) each year? e.g. Colorado, Utah, Washington State, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, California, New Mexico -- just to name some additional spots west of the Mississippi -- are all mighty nice.

Thank you! Almost like being there.

thanks very much for posting Stuart. The NBC coverage was wonderful (if a little too brief), yet i like your viewpoint better.

Go, Jessie, go! I loved watching the races in Minnesota. Will be a lot of spectators when the wc is in Falun (Sweden) and Holmenkollen (Norway)

YES YES YES, we absolutley need FIS to put the world cup in usa/canada every year.
A lot of people and good tracks, what else can we wish for?
Also, if cross country became a little bigger in north america and espacially usa, im sure there would be some big sponsors willing to get in.

The crowd is superior to european crowd, just the best.

So much audience!!

There would have been more if there had been more tickets. They sold out in a few hours.

Glad she didn't miss the podium.
