Heather Mills puts injury behind at Disabled Skiing European Cup

London, Jan 20 (ANI): Injury didn't stop Heather Mills from taking to the slopes on Thursday.

Mills looked in great spirits as she raced for the British Disabled Team at the IPC Disabled Skiing European Cup in Austria.

The 44-year-old made her way across the snow without showing any signs of putting her training on hold, the Daily Mail reported.

Representing Britain in her all-in-one ski suit, the mother of one, looked victorious as she finished the race.

Mills, the former wife of Sir Paul McCartney, is preparing herself for the 2014 Winter Paralympic Games after she was offered a trial on the ski team's development squad in 2010.

Last year it was reported that the blonde had bought a chalet near Goldeck am Millstatter See, in the Austrian Alps, for 1.4million-pound as a base for her training.

But it wasn't long after her training began that she was involved in her first accident which saw her break her right shoulder blade in several places and be airlifted to hospital by helicopter.

Mills then met with another accident in November last year - this time injuring her leg.

She was then told that she would need to rest for five weeks before resuming her training, but the injury scares didn't put her off. (ANI)
