Meanwhile, some Swiss nobody utterly destroyed everyone in women's time trial. What the hell? :yikes:

Marlen Reusser raced (and won) her first UCI-classified event in 2017 according to PCS - the Swiss ITT champs.

 

She joined the UCI's WCC team this year and claimed her first international victory in the Ljubljana-Domžale-Ljubljana TT a few weeks ago.

 

She was 29th in the 2017 WCh ITT, 17th in 2018 and might sneak into the top 10 this year (which few others on that startlist have achieved or are capable of).

Good for them that :CHN have so many table tennis players that they can export them. :p

 

Well the :LUX is been awesome. I’ve caught two of her games, and she is playing phenomenal right now.

Surely you know what Paternoster means? :p

 

Elevator ? :p

 

I know, I know...I thougth you was pointing she did something a la Otčenáš like leading the race and then missing last 5 targets (or something like going the wrong way in the last km in her case in cycling :p)

we must be cursed or I really don´t know what´s going on with team Slovakia...This is clearly by far our worst multisport event in history, even wose than London 2012...Incredible, how our athletes fails in every single event here...

 

the meaning of collective failure has taken on a absolutely whole new dimension thanks our delegation in Minsk...

great final in the Mixed Team event in Judo...Portugal was leading 3-0 and then lost to the tie-breaking match 4-3...

 

I'm notoriously against those kind of events, but I must admit that today's competition was really entertaining and we also saw a few very, very exciting bouts...

 

 

p.s. @hckosice hey, pal! we have a Slovakian win in Boxing (men's -81kg)...Matus Strnisko just destroyed his Swiss opponent and now he's one step away from a medal...:yikes:

unfortunately, now he has to face an Italian (very experienced) guy...so, I just can't let you enjoy that medal...you should have chosen another weight class...:p:rofl::facepalm:

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
