Hurry Up & Wait.

How would you feel if you trained & competed all season, placed in the top 3 consistently & qualified for the winter Olympics but were too young to be eligible?  Well, if you are snowboarder Chloe Kim you take it in stride. At 13 Chloe has been placing consistently (she placed 2nd in three events in a row!) and even qualified to represent the USA in Sochi, but since the Olympic rules are that you must be at least 15, Chloe is not eligible to compete.

Chloe mentioned in a few interviews that the the requirement are there for a reason and she is 100% OK with waiting. I'd say she already has the right attitude to go far in this sport!
