Winter Olympics 2006 V

• Speed Skating (1000m, 5000m)

Exactly! That's all you need to do is move on. Skate past the contendors and move on to the next round...save the tricks for what actually counts. Apolo Anton Ohno did great in his preliminary round of the 1000 & 5000 meter contests. It's really hard to watch him now because it's always kind of uncertain how boldly he will perform and whether or not he will attempt anything that the Associated Press will call another "boneheaded move". He's still fun to watch!

Note: Things didn't go quite so well for Ohno's girlfriend, Allison Baver. She finished seventh overall in the 500 after failing to make the medal race.
