XX. Olympic Wintergames Turin

 

February 10 – 26, 2006

My fifth games were the hardest for me. An acrid carpet glue in the speed skating hall pestered my lungs. The 3.000 m race went completely wrong, but luckily I fighted for Gold with Schützi and Anni in the team pursuit. So I had already my medal when I went for another one in the 5.000 m race. My fourth start over the long distance, my fourth medal. This time a silver one, but for me she had a golden touch, because if fighted through the acrid circumstances.
