It’s the Miracle on Slush as  beat  for silver!  Heartbreak for  as they just fall short.

 

Great race to start with!    This format is usually in World Cups.

I see that the Qazaq epidemic of studying sport and tourism has continued. Even beyond Nur-sultan.

At last we get to some kind of conclusion in the boarder cross!

 

All the rest of the riders - Universities perched like Bond Villains’ Lairs on the edge of the Alpine cliffs.  Nienke Poll  - Eindhoven.

Well this is a nice and confusing schedule for the weekend alpine skiing.

 

Four super-G's, one of which being cancelled, two of which being the speed portion of the combined, and a separate men's super-G?

Very impressive Japanse win in the cross-country skiing mixed team sprint. Didn't see that coming, at least not in that fashion

Apparently we're going for a japanese clean sweap in the women's nordic combined
