Dario Cologna faces his final season. “I decided to resign after this season,” said the 35-year-old. The last highlight for the four-time Olympic champion will follow in February: he wants to shine again at the Olympic Winter Games in Beijing.
The timing of communication is therefore deliberately chosen: “I wanted to communicate the decision before the start of the season so that I can clear my head and concentrate 100 percent on my sporting goals. I’m about to have my fourth Winter Olympics and I want to attack again there ».
The World Cup season for cross-country skiers begins on 27./28. November in Ruka, Finland. (red)
