It’s been a demanding and difficult road back for the fast-healing Mikaela Shiffrin, who plans to make her World Cup return next week after being punctured at a Killington, Vermont, race.

Shiffrin made some post-injury turns earlier this month, calling the three mellow laps she made “a successful on-snow test," and, according to the Associated Press, has undergone slalom training amidst her recovery.
