Watching her whiz down a bumpy mountain at 65 m.p.h. while maintaining a near perfect technical position gives you a healthy rush of adrenaline. On Wednesday morning, Vonn's teammate Julia Mancuso turned in the downhill ride of her life at Whistler Creekside, setting herself up for an upset gold. But Vonn responded, achy shin and all, finishing the 1.8-mile course in 1 min. 44.19 sec., beating...
