She has come a long way for once a mass start specialist...

She's also become more known among non-sports fans this year, due to a documentary about her family and mostly her mother. She had a brain bleed a few years ago and nowadays can only speak a few words and that's about it. I haven't seen it yet, but apparently it's rather...impressive? Intense? Not sure what the right word is.

 

I remember a few years ago Schouten finally had a big breakthrough win (probably in a mass start) in Heerenveen, which she immediately dedicated to her mom who had just survived the bleed and was sitting in a wheelchair behind a window in the stadium, sort of staring down and not entirely 'there'. That was pretty heartbreaking.

 

So, yeah. Go Schouten.

Yes, Teletekst is still hugely popular in The Netherlands. Especially page 818 with the Eredivisie scores is followed massively.

Kjeld Nuis just finished 4th at the Dutch National Championships on the 1.000m in 1.07,88. With that time you would've won the world title last season on the same track. :lol:

Schouten with the 8th fastest 5k in history :bowdown:

And it could probably have gone faster if she'd started a little stronger, judging by the acceleration she still had in the end.

No less than 6 Frenchmen in Inzell this week-end :crazy:

WC qualification time in the 1 500m for 21 y.o Mathieu Belloir and several NJR ... do you think anyone will hear about it ? Of course no, the Ice Sports Federation doesn't give a damn, and L'Equipe, a thousand days from Paris 2024 is too busy wanking over Kylian M'Bappé speaking about his participation to the f***ing olympic football tournament :smash:

But as we now use to say here "alors peut-être" ...

Fun fact                                      Karolina Erbanova bronze medalist in PC 2018 speed skating 500m scored today her first goal for Czech female ice hockey National Team :) in the 4:0 win over Denmark during the Olympic qualifier test match.

You can't get more Dutch than Schouten. The documentary is about family business on a tulip farm, where the spindle (mother) is lost due to a brain bleed. You can see how Schouten is part of the tulip business in addition to her skating career. It was an impressive documentary, so I could recommend it @heywoodu. Schouten is quite popular in the Netherlands and for a good reason. Our tulip girl :-).

  • 5 weeks later...

She's not even 15 years old yet, the times Angel Daleman is skating this season are...utterly bizarre.

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
