I know that I know nothing about, I know I am annoying as shit under the shoes repeating always the same coment, but I simply can not.. I can not understand why there only 1 run, it seems to me so unfair and completely injust for an Olympic event, maybe even more than the biathlon pursuits

I agree completely.  Should be 2 runs, 1 inner start and 1 outer start.  Much more fair way to determine a winner

I feel like this is proof that could be a major power in speed skating with the right coaching and funding. Inline speed skaters can transition very well.

Or at least international. He says he plans to continue compete at the all round national championship for as long as he still is able to skate
