... There's a few examples of times set in Saturday races in Calgary. This season there's the times of he Oceanic skaters in the Netherlands -- but hopefully...
1. This is from the NSF website, informing us that Lars Kvaalen won against Henrik Christensen in the skate-off ... mostly since Henrik fell in the 1500-m,...

Thanks for clarification, Kjell -- but the question remains, is there really a chance of Hege managing to be two places at the same time? The NCh Sprint starts...
Clarification from the horse's mouth: She does the 3000 at 09:30 and then jumps in a car. The car distance is about two hours, I think. The NCh Sprint starts...
... I wonder why they are giving Lars Kvaalen a chance. Grodum obviously did not make a good Nch but can make it better in the Ech. They should have entered...
No 3000 m scheduled for saturday. See link below. http://www.skoyteforbundet.no/terminlister/aktivitet_vis.asp?AktivitetsID=777 Hope the ISU will approve this...
... There's one big argument against it: Both Grødum and Solli have only one chance to secure a World Championship spot: By qualifying for the 10,000 m...
... So let's hope that the ISU accept a 'guest class' performance as a qualifyer. And if so, that this also will apply to other skaters/countries in the...
... Well, skaters recovering from flus often do well. Grødum skated better in Moscow and at Gol than he's been doing for some years. Kvaalen skated well under...

... Let's hope history repeats itself. Those of my friends who have had the flu this winter were totally knocked out for weeks anyway... ... At Gol?! You're...

... Well, at the long distances at least, but these are what counts, for him. But a 1500 m only 6 seconds behind Bøkko is not bad for Grødum either. I think...
... I think most of us thought that Bøkko didn't exerted himself. ... Of course I meant great grandfather. Olav the elder might of course have been Arne's ...

According to the the website SkateResults.com the world experienced a most remarkable case on 10 Feb. 1952: Hjalmar Andersen set a new world record on 10.000m...
Remember also Elma de Vries last week. 1500 and 5k at the Dutch allround (2nd overall). And some oneandahalf hours after the prize giving ceremony she started...
Most impressive with Hege's three wins over three distances in two cities in the same day -- but why doesn't she participate in the *senior class*? She's far...
