Have You Raced? When? What Did You Learn?

Billy Kidd making his move.

We are curious how many of our readers have actually been involved in ski racing in the long arc of their skiing careers. Did you race in college? High school? World Cup circuit? Olympics?  Or just the odd NASTAR race at the local hill? 

Regardless what level you raced or your degree of success, what did you learn from the experience? How has what you learned changed your skiing experience, or, for that matter, your life and your outlook? If you didn’t race, what do you think you might have missed? Or, if you didn’t, why not?

What did you learn from your racing career that still sticks?
