Overview

• Preuß said the news left her shaken and that during interval training the next day she missed every target, thinking Dahlmeier would have hit them all.
• She recalled entering the World Cup alongside Dahlmeier and cherishes memories of their relay victories and years as rooming partners.
• Dahlmeier died in late July during the descent from Laila Peak when a rockfall struck her and rope partner Marina Krauss around 5,700 meters.
• Rescue attempts were thwarted by severe weather and ongoing rockfall, and her remains were left on the mountain in line with her written wish to avoid risking other lives.
• A memorial to Dahlmeier has been set up in her hometown of Garmisch-Partenkirchen as the biathlon community continues to grieve.
