Inside an Olympic Gold Finish with Skiiers Jessie Diggins and Kikkan Randall
Olympians Jessie Diggins and Kikkan Randall made history at this year's winter games. The duo accomplished what no American woman had done before, capturing a medal in cross-country skiing. The pair share their experience in achieving gold in the team sprint free final.
"It's been a total whirlwind--I don't think there's actually any way we could have prepared for what it was going to feel like," said Diggins.
"It was well worth the wait," said Randall who won the gold after eighteen tries in this competition. "It's just an amazing--satisfying feeling."
