Found it at Evert Stenlund's site: Grishin in his days was even better than the Spoon is now: Men Top-10 500m best performances after Wch 1963 1 39.5 Grisjin...
... That's interesting. I wonder where he got it from, because the official protocol does not give the 100 m splits. LEF ...p.s.: You don't need to copy the...
There seems to be a universal agreement among media people that packstyle is more exciting than time trials. Not so with Eurosport. Advertizing some bicycle...
March 8-9 there was an Open Russian Masters (Veteran) Championship in Kolomna. The results were published by the DESG. What's not published, is the additional...
During World War II a skater named Willy Kramer Johansen (born 1922) participated in (if I'm not mistaken) 'illegal' (ie meets not controlled by the Nazi...
In addition to this: During the years I've heard many stories about such "illegal" (out-of-Nazi-control) speed-skating-competitions in Norway during the war....

In ISU Communications 1495 you find Agenda for 52nd Ordinary Congress in Monaco (15 june until 22 june 2008). Proposals for Speedskating are on page 28 until...
What's not published, is the additional races, in which a handful of Norwegian skaters participated. According to reports, Ragnvald Næss set yet another...
Looks like the World Juniors will be single distance (both the technical committee and the US want that *sigh*) North American races in November 2009 will be...
... 'Sigh' it is. I can see the need for making the WJC interesting for others than the allrounders. But at the same time it will focus top level junior speed...

... Looks indeed like one of the least well thought of propositions.... They can better limit the whole tournament to 24 skaters if they want only 24 to start...

... I think the accuracy lays within a 0.05 sec. So better then the 0.1 sec as you stated, which means that manual timekeeping in hundredth of a second makes...
I think two different competitions are being mixed up here; results of both are given by DESG. There is the Russian Master Championship in Kolomna 8-9 March,...
