Very deserved gold for her after many individual silvers, now she's an individual  and team Olympic gold medalist what a race 

And great that coach Johan de Wit, who basically has been the main person in making the Japanse women as great as they are now, could be there after missing most of the Olympics due to a positive test.

Alright, Miho Takagi can retire for real now :P

 

Really deserved champion, really cool to see both Takagi sisters are now both individual and team gold medallists.

 

Unfortunate Bowe still hasn't really had the Olympics she's capable of having.

Dubreuil makes up for his disappointment in the 500 with a surprise silver in the 1000!!!!!

[Dennis 609]

Krol! 

 

Also very happy for Dubreuil and Lorentzen! Surprising podium. 
 

 and  also in the top 10

I almost screamed for medal, but its 4th place, so close and yet so far but amazing Games for Piotr, 4th on 1000m and 5th on 500m, well done!

0.4 separates 1-2, 0.42 separates 2-8.  

[rafalgorka 1,426]

Oh... that was so damn close.

But well, sometimes it's like that. Traditional Canadian... (correction: Polish:-) 4th place.

 

Congrats

One hell of a race that was! Very entertaining.
