The Junior World Championships showed that there's solid potential in a lot of countries.

 

  • Countries that had at least one top 10-finish in the classical distances: :BLR:CZE:ESP:GER:ITA:JPN:KAZ:KOR:NED:NOR:POL:RUS:USA
  • :HUN, :FRA, :AUT and :BEL have a realistic chance to finish top 10 in the mass start tomorrow.
  • :CAN and :CHN did not take part due to COVID-restrictions.

 

So the future looks very bright in my eyes for international speed skating.

 

Some outstanding results:

 

  • :POL Wiktoria Dabrowska is still a junior for four more seasons after this one and already finished top 8 in the girls' 500m and even top 5 in the girls' 1.000m. She's at least 2 years younger than anyone else who made top 10 on both the girls' side. :yikes:
  • :NOR Sigurd Hunriksen is still a junior for two more seasons and finished almost 8 seconds ahead of the #2 in the boys' 5.000m. :yikes:
  • This must be the first international championships ever where :ESP had a top-10 finish on both the girls' and boys' side. :thumbup:

Did the Top Chinese/Canadians also Compete?

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

Danila Semerikov (part of a Dutch team) had some interesting clothes during the open Dutch marathon championships in Sweden this weekend :p According to himself, those are just his normal clothes...

Meanwhile in beautiful (for now) Baselga, Davide Ghiotto set the 10k track record at 13:25 minutes Saturday. That had been held at 13:38 by Bart Veldkamp, who with that race almost managed to take the European allround title from Dmitry Shepel in 2001 :d Good times

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!
