BBC Coverage Wednesday, 6 February, 2002, 15:46 GMT Luger Dinah Browne is ready for a place in the history books whether she does well at the Salt Lake City Games or not. Browne, flying the flag for the US Virgin Islands, is about to become the first black woman to compete in the luge at the Winter Olympics. It is a dream come true for the 32-year-old, who was in college before she saw her first snowflake and only sat on her first sled three years ago. "I thought, 'Wow, I never planned this!'" explained Browne. " What I enjoy most about the luge is that because it's so new to me, I'm constantly learning " "Being the first of something may not pay off for me, but it may pay off for someone else. You hope others will follow." Browne first donned a crash helmet and hurtled down a tube of ice at a two-week training camp in Calgary when she was 29. The camp was designed to broaden the luge's appeal in smaller countries outside Europe where the high-speed sport has long been popular, and it certainly had an effect on Browne. Despite growing up in the tropics, she showed a natural talent and became hooked on the sport after qualifying for her first World Cup event in December 2000.

Georg Hackl, Silke Kraushaar and Stefan Krausse, all soldiers in the German army, swept through the luge events at the Nagano Games, proving that a system of state-backed professional athletes can be just as successful in capitalist Germany as it was in the former communist Germany.
Extractions: Mike Hewit/Allsport HISTORY The first international luge race took place in 1883. Twenty-one athletes from seven countries, including the United States, competed. Hotels in the Swiss resort of Davos organized the race, which took place over a 4-km (2.5 mile) road. Federation Internationale de Luge de course (FIL) is formed as the sport's international governing body. Luge makes its Olympic debut at the Innsbruck, Austria Winter Games. Thomas Kohler of East Germany wins the men's singles gold, Ortrun Enderlein, also of East Germany, wins the women's event, and the Austrian team of Josef Feistmantl and Manfred Stengl captures the doubles gold. Polish-born British slider Kazimierz Kay-Skrzypeski is killed during a trial run on the course two weeks before the Games begin, providing support to critics who believe the sport is too dangerous for the Olympics. A refrigerated luge run is constructed in Lake Placid, NY. The U.S. Luge Association (USLA) is formed as the sport's American governing body. The Winter Olympic Games are held in Calgary, Canada. Defending Olympic champion Steffi Walter of East Germany comes back from a .38 of a second deficit after two runs to win the women's singles gold.
