I (mostly) agree. But I expect Marijke Groenewoud in the top 8 for sure!

I really hope so!
 

She’s in the first pair after the ice preparation, so the ice will still be softer. Plus she is skating before all the favorites, so she needs to set a time. 
 

I do I agree that maybe I should have put her higher as the conditions are tough and she has marathon experience.

Verbij after his race: "I had to stop instead of attempt that risky exchange, otherwise I'd also ruin his race. I'm not an asshole."

Wüst is now guaranteed of a medal. Her fifth medal on the women’s 1.500m. What a legend!

 

She can win an individual gold medal at 5 consecutive Winter Olympic Games. :yikes:

When will Wust retire? This is boring :p Good thing there was biathlon on at the same time.

After this season hahaha :p

 

She’s 35 now, she was 19 when she won her first Olympic Gold.

Well, all this talk about Sven Kramer but Wust is probably the real GOAT of :NED speed skating. If the dominance continues I'd rather see new Dutch names out there. Antoinette de Jong must feel really stupid she can't beat the old vixen out! :p

I agree! She’s the most successful speed skater in Olympic history. 
 

Well, Femke Kok, Jutta Leerdam, Thomas Krol, Merijn Scheperkamp are all making their Olympic debuts and are favorites/outsiders for medals. 
 

I think in either 2026 or 2030 we might see some Polish superstars as well, looking at the current juniors. Szymon Wojtakowski, Wiktoria Dabrowska and maybe Hanna Mazur can all win Olympic medals if they keep developing like this.

      you don't even have idea how it works   last week he was the best of the field and now he's in bad shape?   on Friday he was 24th despite 4 (4!!!!!) missed shots and Yesterday he suddenly went out of shape?   be serious!   he either just had bad skis or he got sick, like many other athletes (see Vittozzi)   the snow in LGB is usually shit, results are always heavily influenced by that and Italy is one of the teams that usually struggle a lot in that place   nothing new and nothing to be worried about

      Festival of Music   For this year’s Festival of Music I thought I would change it up a bit. Since we are approaching the festive holiday season, I want you all to post some festive songs from your country. If you don’t celebrate Christmas then perhaps some other song that has a special place in your heart during an important celebration.     I’m going to start with a Christmas song from Ireland’s TISC Annual 2023 representatives Picture This.     Picture This - This Christmas

      Injured athletes who will miss Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026

      By heywoodu · Posted

      Juniors were there recently and the track was awful   Although that's not necessarily bad. Tracks don't all need to be fast, a slow track (like the horribly slow one in Poland) simply favors a different style of athletes. Training a lot there doesn't really give much extra advantage though, not like in sliding sports where of course as host country you make sure your athletes know every single meter a year before the Olympics.    And to get back on topic: speed skater Elisa Dul broke her tibia and fibula in a training fall yesterday and will obviously be out of the OQT and so the Olympics.

      The PSL race in Davos was (yet another) insult to a beautiful discipline. The red course (which was actually yellow) had several holes and an exposed ice sheet, which made the athletes slide way too long, causing DNFs or massive time losses. The only positive note is that Caffont won despite racing on the more dangerous course in the final
