For those of you who still dream about making the olympics ... :p, it is never too late to start: Oliver Zeidler only started rowing less than 3 years ago and now he could win the gold medal in men's single sculls at the world championships. Here is a link to a video that shows his first attempts in rowing (starting around 03:50, if it isn't geoblocked):

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

sehr schön, danke...

 

beautiful story and beautiful video...

 

p.s. it looks like it's not geo-blocked (at least for me, in Italy...it works with no VPN)...

Cool, the one Austrian is blind so his teammate has to lead him towards the podium, and she has only one leg so he has to make sure she stays upright, that is some serious teamwork :d 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

men's Lightweight Singles

Gold: :ITA Martino Goretti

Silver: :HUN Peter Galambos

Bronze: :AUS Sean Murphy

 

Yay, Hungarian rowing is still a thing that exists! :d

 

Too bad that we don't have another strong male lightweight athlete and Galambos will miss Tokyo because of that. And currently the Hungarian quota situation is pretty terrible in this sport.
