Let's make this birthday one to remember.

63 years old (Born on March 06, 1962)

Happy Birthday, Erika Hess! You're still racing through life faster than anyone down the slopes. From your legendary bronze medal at Lake Placid in 1980 to dominating World Cup podiums, you've always shown us how it's done—gracefully speeding past everyone else while making it look easy.

Even though you're not chasing Olympic medals these days (or maybe just secretly training?), we bet you can still carve circles around most of us on skis—or even off them! May this birthday bring laughter and joy as timeless as your incredible skiing legacy. Keep slaloming gracefully into another fantastic year ahead!
