Aspen’s Simi Hamilton wasn’t chasing any last shot at eternal glory. In many ways, he already achieved that after a decade-plus on the U.S. cross-country ski team.
But, the 33-year-old had a chance to go out on his own terms. He had a chance to spend one more season on the World Cup mentoring the next generation of American athletes. He had a chance to be part of a thriving team dynamic he holds dearly one final time.

One of the most accomplished American Nordic skiers is retiring from the sport. Vermont native Sophie Caldwell Hamilton announced on Thursday via her Instagram account that she has decided to call it a career.
And what a decorated career it was.
The two-time Olympian and two-time World Cup event champion is simply ready to begin a new chapter in her life.
âI think even though there are so many things about it that I still love, I felt ready to be moving on to the next thing,â said Caldwell Hamilton during a phone interview from Germany, where the World Cup has been ongoing. âI also wanted to stop while I do still love the sport and while things are still going pretty well because Iâd like those memories to stay positive.â

It was a rather cloudy day as the athletes circled Ulricehamn’s sprint loop again and again for Sunday’s freestyle team sprint, urged forward by the cheering of recorded crowds piped through a trailside loudspeakers. After first contesting a semi-final round earlier in the morning, the ten quickest teams moved onto the final, each athlete racing three laps for a total of 7.2 k (each loop being 1.6 k).
