BALTIMORE, March 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- After a long
and impressive professional skiing career, Lindsey Vonn may be retiring from competitive
racing, but her career as an athlete lives on. She can still be
found pushing herself in the gym and plans to continue inspiring
other athletes to be the best that they can be. As a longtime Under
Armour sponsored athlete, Lindsey
Vonn plans to continue her partnership with the brand to
expand it beyond the ski slopes and into the gym.
Today, we are excited to announce that Lindsey will be the FIRST
team member to join Team Project Rock alongside fellow Under Armour
athlete, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, as a global ambassador for
Project Rock; a collection designed for every athlete.
"I am so excited to be on team Project Rock," said Vonn. "What I
find so inspiring about Dwayne is that he always gives 110% in
everything that he does. He basically stands for 100% authenticity
and 100% effort."
Since Dwayne began his partnership with Under Armour, there has
been one singular goal – to reflect Dwayne's attitude and WILL into
training product, apparel built to withstand everything the hardest
worker in the room could throw at it, so that everyday people can
build their own belief and 'Chase Greatness.' The Project Rock
collection doesn't care what you look like, your age, gender, race,
creed, sexuality or skill level. It's about being an athlete,
focused on getting better, no matter the obstacles, and Lindsey
personifies that ethos and will help to continue to tell that
story.
The next Project Rock collection releases globally on
March 21 on UA.com, at UA Brand
Houses and select retailers.
