the Team Relay (2*2*1.25k) has been definitively cancelled...:facepalm: :nopompom:

Well, some good news at least :p 

 

And the 25k starting at 14.00 seems fun, after-dinner open water swimming :cheer: 

 

Spoiler

Edit: just realized I'll be having dinner in a restaurant, so forget about the last part, I'll watch that later :d

LOL, the Team Event is back on the schedule, it will be on Sunday. Don't ask me how some of the swimmers will do the 10km and the team event on the same day.

everything's still TBC, in any case...

 

forecast is not that promising...

 

and some swimmers are trying to make their voice heard and said that the races shouldn't be held with such kind of waves (Paltrinieri being the leader of them)...

 

I was sure that the pool specialists were going to complain if we really went back to the old glory days of Open Water Swimming...

Maybe they won't be allowed, just like apparently nobody is allowed to do both the 5k and 25k today even if they wanted (like Van Rouwendaal).

The team event will be a joke if they won't allow them to do both. Everyone would choose 10k over the team event if they have to.

Could be some similarities yes, for example your nickname perfectly translates to Macedonian in Lithuanian, wouldn't even need to change a single letter.

 

Your question caused me to go on a google rampage and I found some info.

 

Arijus Pavlidi was born and raised in Vilnius, Lithuania, he has now moved to train in Thailand.

 

His grandpa was Greek and moved to live in Lithuania. 

My nickname also means Macedonian in Greek ;)

 

Interesting about his grandfather. Pavlidis is a very common Greek surname btw. For example we have a footballer on our national team with that name, he scored for AZ Alkmaar in each of their last two European matches this summer. Also we have a male discus thrower with that surname, he finished 4th a couple weeks ago at the U20 World Championships.

This 25k race is the biggest clusterfuck I have ever seen and so is the broadcast. No one has any idea what's going on.

Um, wtf did just happen? Nobody has any clue, apparently not even the swimmers :lol: What an absolute joke from the Italian organizers, not worthy for the European Championships.

    • In Rome, it would be useful to roof the swimming pool complex at Foro Italico, possibly with the option of retracting the roof and covering the tennis court complex. Overall, there's a lot to do, for example, compared to Budapest, but unfortunately, this is Italy How many years has Roma been building their new stadium, and they keep pushing back the completion date- now I read it's 2030? and it should be ready. The same goes for Milan- there should be a modern complex of indoor swimming pools with 50 meters pools, etc., but there's a problem with one stupid football stadium, which will only be built after an ultimatum from UEFA

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
    • Idea (that I don't want to mess with right now, but someone else can steal the idea): Could feed the docs from LA28 + Paris 2024 through AI and see what it says.  (Would just take downloading them, perhaps merging them for ease of upload, and passing it through.)
