As the 2026 Winter Olympics approach in Milan Cortina, Italy, top cross-country athletes from Norway, the United States and Sweden are finalizing preparations for events starting February 7. Norwegian star Johannes Høsflot Klæbo aims to extend his dominance, while American standout Jessie Diggins enters her final Games as the world’s top-ranked skier. The Swedish team has implemented early isolation measures to ensure peak condition.
Jessie Diggins, America's most decorated cross-country skier, approaches her last Olympics with a focus on enjoyment rather than outcomes. Retiring after the 2026 Milano Cortina Games, she keeps her medals hidden to maintain motivation. Her story highlights a career driven by passion and mental health advocacy.
