heywoodu 13,504 Posted January 31, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2020 In case anyone cares There's a handful of decent names competing, but it's nothing big. 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!

dcro 10,172 Posted January 31, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 31, 2020 It's kind of sad that USA can't really find male distance racers even for this kind of an event. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Mantia, but he just isn’t interested in anything besides the 1500m and Mass Start. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Yeah, only seven Americans have ever gone under 6:20; besides of course Shani Davis and über-American Chad Hedrick those were Derek Parra in 2002, Emery Lehman, Brian Hansen en Trevor Marsicano in the past 11 years and Jonathan Kuck of all places who joins Hedrick as only one to ever go under 6:10 when he had his weird super season for one month or something. Too bad KC Boutiette never made it past his 6:22 in the SLC Olympics. The 10k is a little sadder, with only four guys ever going under 13:20 (Hedrick, Davis, Hansen and Kuck).

You are forgetting Heiden and other guys from the pre-magic era. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly sure there was a World Cup or something there once? It very much sounds like I've seen something from Milwaukee before 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!

Dennis 600 Posted February 1, 2020 #10 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Strong time yesterday by Kim Jun-Ho in the men's 500m (34,59). Too bad most of the top skaters are missing, especially the best Americans despite this tournament being held there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
