Classic sprint tonight under the lights. 4 American girls made the rounds, Heidi qualified 2nd, Julia 7th, Nicole 21st, Hailey 24th. Katharine just missed in 32nd, Gretchen fell on a tough corner but still finished 47th. No boys qualified in the top 30. I'll post those results when I see them. Heidi moved on in her quarter, the other girls were eliminated. Heidi then moved onto the A final! In the A final she lead into the stadium, and was in a tight battle for a podium position, when a collision with a spectator slowed her down. She still finished 5th. A GREAT result, but she's hungry for more! Tomorrow is 10mk/5km skate races. Go USA! Better write-up to come...
