Ana Alonso :ESP , silver medal in the mixed relay and 4th place in sprint race at the last Worlds, has been hit by a car while training and suffered very serious injuries, so she won't be able to make it to the Olympics. At this point it is not even sure if she will be able to compete again.

So sad to hear! Skimo was a new sport to me, but I do recognize that name as someone who was constantly towards the top of the races. Sad for her, for the team, for Spain, for all...will pray for her.

At first the Spanish federation said that she needed surgery and would take some months to be able to train again, but it seems that she will try to compete at the Olympics even if she is injured by delaying the surgery. I'm not sure if that's a wise decision in the long run but it's her decision after all.
