What a super weird schedule by the way, the fuck is up with the 500m being followed by the 1000m

Erin Jackson is competing just days after winning gold at the 2023 Pan American Games in roller speed skating.

I've encountered an annoying formatting issue that @Sindo @OlympicIRL and I are working to rectify, but due to the short period of time remaining before the scheduled date of the opening ceremony and grand final, it is likely those will need to be pushed back one weekend. I'll provide a more official update tomorrow.

Good to finally see a Leerdam race without the cameras spending more time focusing on Jake freaking Paul (like at the World Cup qualifiers two weeks ago)

I will confess to having literally never heard about Stakusic before yesterday.

Pool A will involve teams not eligible for Olympic qualification. Top two advance to the semifinals where they will face each other. Pool B and C will consist of eligible nations, the winners will advance to the semifinals where they will play each other for Olympic qualification. Loser goes to the final repechage tournament. The second place teams in Pool B and C will play each other for the second spot in the repechage tournament. Pool A New Zealand Fiji Australia Niue Oceania Barbarians Pool B Samoa Solomon Islands Cook Islands American Samoa Tuvalu Pool C Tonga Papua New Guinea Vanuatu Kiribati Nauru

Portugal Edition: TISC Open 2016

1. and 2. I passed on those events, as this is one of the very few disciplines I don't follow even during the Olympic Games - Speedskating, men's Team Pursuit...here I'm totally biased. sureley it wasn't the best ever performance by a team, on the other hand, it was maybe the best performance by an individual (Enrico Fabris) winning a team event (almost) all by himself so, my choice is very much a Home call, Italy 2006 - Speedskating, women's Team Pursuit...here I'm going with the true spirit of these polls...the most impressive single performance by a team in this event, so I think I have to choose Japan 2018, as their superiority was probably not to be equalled in quite a while - Short Track Speedskating, men's 5000m Relay...it's another Home call, maybe...but in this case I'm more than convinced that it was also the best single performance of a team in this event, despite Canada have put on such a rock solid tradition and won more gold medals than anyone else my choice is, once again, Italy (1994...waiting for the 2026 replay of those great memories )

what a...wait, no...better until next Monday

Series finale for the Track Champions’ League in London this weekend - double bill of racing on both Friday & Saturday evenings.

Yeah will almost always get a quota. I suspect will get one too should they not qualify normally.

It's official. FIFA didn't allow any replacements even though we tried to manipulate an injury since one of the drinkers suffered a cut around the brow ridge Tournament has started, @hckošicemight want to know that drew with the hosts 1-1. vs kicks-off at 10:00 am CET tomorrow.

It's been interesting. One thing you could do is try to predict future powerhouses (or weaknesses). For example, I imagine India will be a bit more prominent in the medal table, especially if they get to host 2036 or 2040.

Вељко Ћук у Истанбулу на Светском купу испао у другој елиминационој рунди, то би требало да је 1 бод за олимпијску листу. Према некој мојој процени, мораће све преостале слотове да попуни пласманима у топ 5 да би добацио до квоте, укључујући и онај 6. (ЕП2024). Да није имао жреб какав је имао на ЕП, било би далеко лакше добацити до квоте. Делује ми да је пао физички у голден скору, а после ни у репесажу то није изгледало сјајно. Требало би да му је и ово 7. место довољно да се врати у зелено, али мораће и он следеће године на већи број такмичења. За Марицу ми није јасно зашто је уопште ишла на ово такмичење. Бозкурт прославила победу као олимпијско злато, после изгубила 2 борбе. Теа Тинтор испала од девојке која је узела злато.

Bagajev zlato u Pertu Ima jos turnira, mozda moze do kont kvote!! Buncic je imao priliku koju nije iskoristio, steta

I'm a bit disappointed by Pergher's time over the 500m, I expected her to be within 1 sec from the actual race winner, but she's at least 3-4/10 outside that meanwhile, even if she slooks like to become a pure 500m specialist, I'm really disappointed with her 1.20 over the 1000m...she can do way better than that good results instead for Bosa, waiting for Ghiotto to enlight our speedskating weekend p.s.

My sis was a volunteer at 2017 World Games in Wrocław, mainly at the sports climbing venue. So my family is behind this success heh :-)

Yes they are! I've been to two World Games - 2017 in Wroclaw and 2022 in Birmingham - let me say that the Wroclaw games were better ran and organized than the edition held in the United States.

They'll really do anything to never hold this sport outside again.

This allocation process can be really confusing 🤣🤣🤣

for the Q. and for the repêchage. New kid on the international block.

very busy (too busy) opening weekend of the Fencing World Cup except for the women's Foil, all the other 5 weapons are on stage basically all together (and some of them, in places where it's almost impossible to get a decent streaming coverage) FIE will never learn from their mistakes

For Olympic qualification, here's the scoring in 49er after one race (I've only included the top boat per nation) - 3 - 5 - 6 - 8 - 9 - 11 - 11 - 20 - 21 - 25

Czech Republic Edition: TISC Open 2016

This week Bruce Springsteen announced a new European tour for next year, just managed to get tickets for his show in Nijmegen in June Normally it's a bit of a hassle and a long wait, this time I got in the virtual line with only 1400 people or so ahead of me (out of many tens of thousands) and barely 5 minutes after the sale officially started, I had my tickets Gonna be the 5th time my dad and I go to see The Boss, already looking forward to it again as ever I'm still hoping he goes to Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro one day so I can send my mother in law there, but that seems less likely since his tours are basically just Europe and the US..

just another day at the office for Jeffrey Hoogland yesterday he improved the 500m world record with a flashy 24.564 seconds (record previously held by Sir Chris Hoy with 24.758 since 2007 in La Paz) then he missed out his 3 attempts to smash the flying 200m record (held by Nicholas Paul with 9.100 secs since 2019, also made in La Paz) 9.130, 9.201, 9.103 the 3 times clocked by the Dutch sprinter

Since Halloween is over and its TISC thread she cant be missed here

55,433 seconds

Within now and a few minutes, Jeffrey Hoogland is going to attack Francois Pervis' 1km world record in Aguascalientes. The goal is to break Pervis' 56.303 seconds. There's a live stream here, not sure it's available outside the Netherlands. https://www.ad.nl/wielrennen/live-bekijk-de-wereldrecordpoging-van-jeffrey-hoogland-vanaf-20-45-uur-exclusief-via-onze-site~acfaf934/ Personally I find it super cool to have a record attempt for this, besides the hour records we're sort of used to, but also it's a bit sad to see this being done in some 'atmosphereless' hall with 5 people present or so By the way, Pervis himself said he thinks Hoogland can break his record by 3 seconds, which would of course be insane. Then again, it's definitely not impossible. When Pervis said his 56.3 seconds, he was usually riding times of around 1 minute on sea level. Hoogland has been consistently going far under that, even going to low 58's...on sea level. Wouldn't be shocked to see a 54.x seconds.

And no and neither...
