It could. It’d be the like the ultra marathon of race walking. It still think I’d be cool to have a shorter distance event (importantly while keeping the traditional distances), maybe a 5km

 

5km walk? Bad idea. You couldn't enforce the rules at all and cheating would be common. Plus you throw the stamina factor out of the way completely.

Heats system. Either QF -> SF -> F, or 3 SF -> F. Maybe better over 2.5km

I think a 100m race walk would be awesome. I predict a lot of faults, however.

Also, I am very keen on a 100m sprint in cross country skiing. What do people think of this?

Looking at the countries of origin of most of the canadian athletes here i wouldn't be surprised if Canada tried to bought Chepkoech. Luckily she has enough pride to not switch nationalities for money.

Canada does not buy athletes.... there is no money for that.

Who’d we buy? I’m not being confrontational. I’m genuinely curious :mumble:

      summary   Brignone = top star of the championships     rest of the team = why wasting money bringing them to the championships and expose them to the world, showing their total lack of talent?

      Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

      Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.

      Dave Ryding's Sixth was the best from a  man since 1934!  We actually have two Women's Golds in the 1930s.

      first win for the Italian men's relay since 2007      very good Home stage for us   if only the organizers didn't set the finals sessions at 2 p.m. (especially on Saturday), there would have been a lot more spectators on the seats
