Yeah, often you see it's mostly just Russia, Poland, Kazakhstan and Ukraine that take it serious in some of the sports, but it's a nice event nonetheless, we're not just watching to see World Cup athletes  If I want to see World Cup athletes I'll watch the World Cup

Just got a 'Skype tour' around one of the apartments in the village by the way, they are big! There's like two pretty big bedrooms, a good bathroom even including a bathtub, a nice living room, another random big room, a nice balcony and everything...definitely a good apartment for families to live after the Universiade

I find it cool to see a mixture of more experienced athletes and amateur athletes who are definitely not pursuing their athletics career after the studies.

Lol, I see that there will be also men's 10000 m race. Based on some times from today that's gonna take whole day.

Every event that takes a speed skating program seriously should have a 10000m race, not a bad word about the Mother of all Distances
