Olympic skiing legend Lindsey Vonn is celebrating a major comeback after a devastating crash at the Winter Olympics that nearly cost her leg.

She recently opened up about the serious injuries from that accident, which included a complex tibia fracture, a fractured fibular head, and a tibial plateau injury.

In the weeks since the accident, Vonn has made steady progress in her recovery. She first moved from using crutches to confidently walking on her own, and now she’s sporting her signature style again—with renewed energy and confidence.

Earlier this month, Vonn appeared at the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco, a notable moment for her since it came just days after ditching her crutches. The appearance also marked the first time she publicly wore a form-fitting dress since the crash.

“The face I make when I can actually workout in the gym!” Vonn wrote, adding that being able to exercise again made her “so happy and excited” she could hardly describe it.
