Milan is on: Holly Brooks joins to recap Olympics Day 1

The race was ON from the gun: We recap the women's 20-kilometer pursuit, which was a rough go for Jessie Diggins and a tight fight between the Scandinavian heavyweights.Alaskan Holly Brooks, the retired Olympic World Cup racer, joins us after watching the race in person. We hope to get proof of life from Devon soon.In the mean time, reach us at devon[at]fasterskier.com and nat[at]fasterskier.com. We'll be back tomorrow.It's really expensive to be here in Italy. If you can, support the show and FasterSkier's ongoing coverage with a voluntary membership. We're also offering a special bonus to our members during the Olympics: an insider's WhatsApp group featuring notes on Nat's experiences in Italy, the food he's eating, links to international coverage of cross-country skiing and more. Send nat[at]northernjournal[dot]com a confirmation of your voluntary membership and the number he should use for WhatsApp and we'll get you signed up. You can also Venmo him directly at @nat-herz if a membership isn't for you. We're suggesting a minimum of $10, but we also won't turn anyone away who wants to join because of an inability to pay.
