That 1500M short track final was crazy. About 40 skaters it seemed like, Dubois did well to stay near the front the entire time.
I don't really like these different distances in short track. These just go slower at the start. It would be like in track, you had all the same racers in the 100, 200, 400, 800 etc. And they just jogged the first laps.
Really happy for Jacobellis honestly. SHe is the goat of that sport and the way she blew it 16 years ago was kind of poetic in a way. A 20 year old snowboarder showboating in a big race. How in character.
I have very high hopes for Gushue and jones. Happy to see Gushue with a solid start and solidly beating a team they are better than.
