2006 Olympian… “The best day of my life” was Lowell’s comment upon making his first Olympic Biathlon Team… Skied for UVM from 2003-2005, taking a break from biathlon… Scored personal best 29th place (and first-ever World Cup Points) in his return to biathlon competition at Ostersund World Cup in December 2005 … one of the few left handed shooters on the World Cup circuit… plays in a local band when in the Lake Placid area and always travels with his guitar… after his 27th place in Olympic 20K, he commented, “I am almost speechless. This did not exceed my expectations, but is a bit of a surprise.”

Lowell Bailey’s World Beyond Sport
When traveling, the thing I miss the most is being able to relax in a place you call home
In my car are ski poles, 2 bikes, bags of clothes, CDs
my entire life packed into a Volkswagen
If I could meet anyone in the world, it would be Sam Bush, the mandolin player
My favorite website is Jeremy Teela’s Blog
My favorite place in the world is Lake Placid—for sure!
If I was not a full-time athlete, I would be a full-time musician
My favorite Italian dish is my Mom’s lasagna
     I am good at....mandolin
I am bad at....swimming
The best things in life are music, skiing & shooting, not in that order
My philosophy of life is....I do not have any catchy phrases, but make sure you keep it fun!
  If I could change anything about myself I would make six figures and do the same thing
