One thing they all have in common, though, is that they have been away from their families for a long time, including the Chinese Lunar New Year, due to the closed-loop system to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

"There were a lot of things going on in different families during this period, including the death of loved ones and the birth of babies, that we couldn't participate in personally," Li said.

"There are definitely pities, but no regrets, because we have prepared well before entering the closed loop, for the sake of the competitions and the prevention of the pandemic. We have no complaints," Li said.

She hopes that China's ski medical rescue system will continue to grow and more recruits will join.

"I also hope that we don't need to invite international ski doctors when holding large international tournaments in the future," she said. "And that our Chinese ski doctors can be invited to support events in other countries."
