Adidas Terrex shared a glimpse of a video on their Instagram account, where Mikaela Shiffrin is seen talking about her feelings. This was from episode 3 of Unfiltered: Being Okay With Yourself, where Shiffrin is seen expressing, “It gets a lot lonelier”. This happens with the legend when she gets back to her space with no media and cameras on her. It gets a lot quieter and a lot lonelier for her than it should.

Shiffrin is absolutely used to winning and with several cameras and so much attention on her, she is used to this noise, and it can of course get a little different than it should in the post phase of everything. However, the skier is still aiming for more.
