in the track relays half the track is wet. If you're in an inside lane, you're hooped.

Canadian women were running on a wet track.

The Canadian men have a chance, they'll be running on the outside in a dry lane.

I'm down for that. As long as there are no try-hard hype men involved.

Most judged events are just kinda lame.

I’d like the breaking (or ski ballet) more if instead of pros, it was limited to competitors from other events. I'd like to see Wemby vs Katzberg
