Short Track Speed Skating at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026


Recommended Posts

Also random, but am in a pizza place on my way back from short track and… why the fuck does "pizza Americana" have fries on it? Americans would not be caught dead putting fries on pizza xD

This is the first time in the 21st century that China has failed to win an Olympic gold medal in short track speed skating. As a team that has always been a source of anticipation at the Winter Olympics, it will certainly face a lot of criticism. Hopefully, it can regroup and gain new insights over the next four years.:)

Any news from Kamila Sellier ?

 

They had to remove the original stitches to asses the cracked cheekbone. She couldn't open her eye due to massive swelling.

It's the typical pizza for Italian children :p It's fried food on top of something already heavy like pizza, a typical American mess I would say :lol:

It’s typically American if your only exposure to America is central New Jersey :P

 

(I actually like New Jersey, but it def has by far the trashiest food culture in the US)

Surely American beer is the biggest trash in "food" category :p

This is actually one of the biggest misconception I had before moving to the US. America may actually have the best beer market in the world, they just don’t export hardly any of the good stuff. Virtually any kind of beer in existence you’ll find a local brewery in every major city that makes a good version of it.

 

You just have to ignore anything brewed by the big players.

Is the "good stuff" 6% at least? Anything under 6% is basically considered shite in Poland/Germany/Czechia.

 

Bud at 3.9% or sth is not good enough for a mouth wash :p

    • Men´s Division II Group A World Championship schedulled in Al-Ain this year has been cancelled   So the ranking will be frozen and no team will be promoted to I B / Relegated this year from I B and promoted from II B / Relegated to II B   https://www.iihf.com/en/news/72580/2026_iihf_wmiia_championship_cancelled   The 2026 IIHF World Championship Division II Group A (WMIIA), originally scheduled to take place in the United Arab Emirates, has been cancelled following a decision by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF).   As a result, promotion and relegation for the WMIIA Championship will be frozen for the 2026 season.

    • How wonderful!   I met the national rowing (and beach rowing) coach of EST/LTU/LAT on the way to ice hockey one day, who's Canadian by the way. I also flew home on the same flight as JC Schoonmaker's mom and friends, so we chatted for a bit.
    • Yea I only used transit besides this Uber / bus to the airport and back. All the venues were at the end of the line, so it allowed you to speak with other fans/volunteers etc. I even met Corrine Stoddard's mom after the first session of short track on the way back, and told her to remember our conversation if she won a medal later in the Olympics. We know how that ended up... 
    • I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan.   My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in.   My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan.   I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.   
    • It's the olympics, sleep is for the weak!    The first day i got there i was on a 12 hour flight from l.a to rome (flight that left mid day), lay over, another flight to milan, uber to hotel, then right away to speed skating (1500m men), then after uber to hockey venue for women's gold final, then after the celebrations uber to the hotel, i ended up being awake about 36 hours that day, the next morning i thought to go sightseeing in the center of milan, but ended up sleeping until like 2pm..... and had speed skating/short track that night
