Cortina: Vonn wins training run
The alpine ladies were finally able to run downhill training in snowy Cortina, Italy, on Friday and Lindsey Vonn put down the fastest time, finishing in 1 minute, 17.36 seconds.
With more than 100 centimeters of snow falling at the Italian resort this week, Friday marked the first day the women were able to use the race course. Officials announced Friday that the Cortina super-G canceled on Thursday will now be run on Monday.
The downhill race will be run Saturday, giant slalom on Sunday, but a second downhill that was intended to make up for one canceled in Lake Louise earlier this season was canceled outright.
Austrian Andrea Fischbacher had the second fastest DH training time Friday, finishing .22 seconds after Vonn, followed by Canadian Kelly Vanderbeek, who was .44 seconds off the pace.
