All I've heard so far is that she felt pain in her calves, fell unconscious and died. (blood clot?)

I was just about to come on and post this - she died in Portugal at the age of 26. What a tremendously sad loss

In early 2000 we placed our ticket requests for seats at the OG. Went for mens Shot qual and mens discus final. Got the days we wanted but they changed from mens discus to womens hammer. Our local hammer throwers although good were not athletic, (think Bromwyn Eagles although it was Debbie Somisenko that year ) and I was very, very disappointed.
Turned up and found our seats ecactly behing the cage and got to see Skolimowska battle with the role model for all future female hammer throwers Olga Kozenkova. A very memorable night.
Very sad day, the comps will not be the same.." we all overtrain" Pat Casey to George Frenn

sounds like blood clot ( DVT going to lungs causing embolus )
obesity & contraceptive pill are usual combined catalysts in young women who develop DVT - she wasn't most svelte competitor & presumably in a relationship, so those factors are likely
