How can DNF count as 'being slower than X'? :p  #nitpicking

*Note to myself. Next time I create questions for a bet contest, be sure to think ALL possible scenarios before you formulate a question*. :p

 

To be honest, I don't know. :p Maybe I'm the only one thinking that because you start you have made an effort to set a time and therefore you can be slower or faster than someone else. 

Anyway, if no one thought that, except me, and the time winner time of 10km is not under 25:50, there is no problem.

It is true that you can be slower or faster in terms of km/h, but DNF doesn't automatically mean that you're slower in time, since you have no final time :p

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!

In another dimension, time is relative to the square root of the mass of a macaque monkey. #Becausescience

 

Edit:

12- At least 2 or more athletes from the Women's 5km C will be slower than the winner of the Men's 10km C (DNF and DNS don't count)

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