Sprint champ Randall kicking up training

PARK CITY — For months, World Cup cross-country skiing sprint champ Kikkan Randall toted around her crystal globe, hoisting it high everywhere from atop a snow grooming machine during a hometown parade in Anchorage to a celebration in Times Square, setting off security scanners at airports everywhere in between.

Lately, the three-time Olympian’s most noticeable accessory had been the protective walking boot she had to wear while battling back from a stress fracture in her right foot.

The injury has changed her workout routine in Park City and some of her aspirations for this season, but it won’t change her ultimate goal, to win gold at the Sochi Olympics in 2014 — and perhaps beyond.
