Josef "Sepp" Lenz (8 February 1935 – 3 May 2023) was a West German luger who competed in the 1960s. He won the gold medal in the men's singles event at the 1962 FIL European Luge championships in Weissenbach , Austria.
Biography
Lenz was born in Königssee on 8 February 1935. He was selected for the men's singles event at the 1964 Winter Olympics , but was severely injured at the luge track in Igls and did not compete as a result.
Lenz later became a luge coach , being involved in the early career of Austria's Markus Prock .[1] International Luge Federation President Josef Fendt , 1984 Winter Olympic doubles champions Hans Stangassinger and Franz Wembacher , and triple Olympic champion Georg Hackl . Along with his father, he also constructed a naturally refrigerated luge track on the banks of the Königssee , the forerunner to the present artificial Königssee track .[2] Utah Olympic Park Track ,[3] Alpensia Sliding Centre .[4]
In December 1993, Lenz lost his left leg below the knee when he did not get out of the way of an American luger while clearing off the ice at the bobsleigh, luge, and skeleton track in Winterberg , Germany. Lenz returned to coach the German team at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer two months later.
Lenz died on 3 May 2023, at the age of 88.[5]
