heywoodu 13,540 Posted February 7, 2020 #41 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) World Cup in Calgary today and tomorrow (not that anyone really seems to care about the whole notion of a World Cup classification in speed skating). Standings and stuff isn't interesting, no idea who is leading where because it's not like alpine skiing where it matters. However, it is in Calgary and so it is definitely interesting to follow. Daichi Yamanaka already threw down a 34.24 in the 500m B division, that's promising Edited February 7, 2020 by heywoodu 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!

heywoodu 13,540 Posted February 7, 2020 #46 Share Posted February 7, 2020 No fantastic times so far, Calgary is mostly lost glory in terms of the quality of the track there. Too bad, it has such a rich history.

I mean, Bonazza skated 4.06 in Heerenveen and now she goes to 4.13 (with 36 and 37 secs in the last 2 laps)...

Yes, because sexy lingerie is the main priority when competing (not that it matters much, but I do believe I saw something that wasn't exactly a big piece of cloth ) 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!

heywoodu 13,540 Posted February 7, 2020 #50 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Sindre Henriksen did a better job a few years ago though: he fell, ripped his suit and had to compete the last part of the race clearly showing his boxers/underpants....not long after, he started getting some extra money by starting to sell underwear phelps 1 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!
