Glamour has a four page spread with Gretchen Bleiler, Kelly Clark, Lindsey Jacobellis and Hannah Teter in the February 2010 issue.  I knew they were doing a shoot with some of the 2006 Olympians (and 2010 Olympic hopefuls), as Gretchen Bleiler had tweeted about it a few months ago. It's called the Great Olympic Glam-Up. You can check it out online or in the magazine scans below.

On a chilly day at Copper Mountain, Gretchen Bleiler grabbed the top spot in the women's qualifiers.  She'll head into the final on Saturday hoping to help secure an Olympic spot with a repeat performance. Bleiler was given stiff competition by Kelly Clark, who qualified second and is looking for her 3rd trip to the Olympics.

"It was great to come out this morning and have qualifiers. The weather cooperated and it got a little bit warmer for us," Clark said. "To come out and land my first run of the season at the first event is a great way to start my year and I am looking forward to finals on Saturday."

Soko Yamaka of Japan took the third qualifying spot, and young Maddy Schaffrick suprised the field coming in fourth.
