Mikaela Shiffrin and Kendall Coyne Schofield lead an epic female medal run in Pyeongchang, leading to a wider conversation about personal growth and equality in sports.
As sports fans stateside fall asleep on February 20th, 2018, the US is embarking on a historic run of performances. By the time they turn down the lights next, their medal count will have shot up by nine. Seven of those new medals are hanging around women's necks.
American alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin and hockey player Kendall Coyne Schofield take us through that momentous day in Pyeongchang and how it tells the story of much more than a single 24hr period. Instead, that medal run is illustrative of the power and resilience of all female athletes and these two women's personal growth since.
