  1. I've long tried to switch to just enjoying these 'surprises' (except for Chris holier than the pope Froome but that's another matter), I'll see in a few years which ones still stand
  2. It's going to be close between Razymova and Weng/Brennan, she's still on pace. The danger is coming from behind though.
  3. Yes, but normally by this time the main positions have long been decided, tour or no tour.
  4. Pretty cool, the likes of Johaug and Parmakoski have long finished and there's still a full fight for the second and third place
  5. She won two seconds on Karlsson between 5km and 6.2km and stayed equal with Weng in that part.
  6. The snow having stopped is definitely having it's effect
  7. Sadie Bjornsen is a major podium threat as well after 5km
  8. Women's 10k classic started, I'm curious who (if anyone) can stay within a minute of Johaug Too bad mega super talent Fossesholm isn't here yet.
  9. I know it's just training, but I'm gonna say 'screw that' to that and have hope for a great Janka run
  10. Not 2.8 seconds back bad though (and yes, different track, but that difference is huge even compared to last week). I wonder what happened to Daria though, almost three seconds more behind than last week. Last, but not least: never ever give your children a name with only one letter difference, it's so confusing.
  11. Like...? It sounds really, really easy. You don't have to hide what you're doing, since the person is asleep, and your victim won't ever know you've even been there while the victim was sleeping.
  12. Two DNF's and Daria Obratov are the only ones not making it out of the Nation Cup. So Dania Obratov is in (with a much, much worse result than last week, but fine) https://www.fil-luge.org/cdn/uploads/rlncwomen-33.pdf
  13. This thread has taken an unexpected pornographic turn. Come on, I'm sure there are people who would wake up when injected with whatever needle is used for EPO injections, just as I'm sure there are plenty of people who wouldn't. How can that be so hard to accept?
  14. You know they don't use some monstrous thing like this to inject EPO right? It's just a small needle. You'll hardly feel it even if you're awake and a bit distracted.
  15. I mean, I wouldn't believe it because like you said, we've heard tons of complete bullshit excuses. But this brings it to another level in terms of how bizarre it is (the story, not the excuse, since obviously if true, she isn't to blame..)
  16. Top-60 of the second sprint is the usual situation in these IBU Cups with a double sprint followed by a pursuit.
  17. Calgary Flames head coach Bill Peters has been kicked out (well, officially he resigned) after being accused of saying 'nigger'* to a player 10 years or so ago. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/nhl/2019/11/29/bill-peters-fired-calgary-flames-coach-akim-aliu-racial-slur/4309546002/ *We can assume that's what he said, since another article mentioned the godawful American-style wording 'the N-bomb' and I doubt 'new player in the team' counts as N-bomb.
  18. It was actually not even a trap. Ice hockey may be a winter version of a summer sport, I can't imagine a Winter Olympics without it (after all, I do like it).
  19. On the bright side: that makes it even more clear it was their wax that was great in the morning, not their veins
  20. Plus planning something like that is just pretty normal in their situation. I mean, yeah, Beijing 2022 is going to get a lot harder if they'd get pregnant a year later and if they wait until after the Olympics, they might feel like they want it faster. Of course it's no coincidence so many female athletes get pregnant in the 1-2 years after the Olympics
  21. Apparently half the women's Russian team (apart from Nepryaeva basically) is pregnant....on advice of their coach (as in, "if you want that and you want to go to the Olympics, better try it now than closer to the Olympics") I hope that really is the reason, and not some sort of 'pressured' thing because some mad scientist found out pregnancy hormones make you stronger or something (which I've read something about long ago but can't find).
