Paige Railey is all smiles after winning French Olympic Sailing Week

Simply put, 18-year-old Paige Railey is very passionate about the sport of sailing and she loves competition. One of her biggest dreams has long been to win a gold medal in sailing at the Olympic Games. And she's well on her way because, after all, she is the reigning World Champion in the women's Laser Radial. This is the same girl who once told a New York Times reporter that, when she was younger, she wanted to work at a Dunkin Donuts because then she thought she could eat all the donuts she wanted. Paige says that since then her focus has turned to sailing. This spring and summer, she's spending most of her time competing in regattas in Europe, while also going as far away as China. When it comes to sailing, her motto is "Winning means you're willing to go longer, work harder, and give more than anyone else" (inspired by famous football coach Vince Lombardi). No doubt we'll be hearing from her in the years to come!
