I;m wondering what's possible for Kramer, he's only 19 and his last 2 laps were amazing.
Good to see Davis and Hedrick have some competition at last. Hopefully Grodum regains form a bit, I was disappointed by his 5k he can do much better. Also Grodum has nice carreer perspective once he stops skating: he's the ideal pope, he already has the papal wave down. I can just see him standing in his pope mobile waving to the masses [ ]

Ok, I also saw 2 American worldrecords and 1 amazing Canadian world records.
1.51.79 for the women's 1500. !!! I remember when Ritsma set the WR for men on 1.51.60. Not that long ago.

women's 1500m and men's 1000m world records are both amazing times. will be a while before they get broken. The olympic track in Torino is a more lowland outdoor track so no way they're even gonna get close there.
