I asked Jeff if they get to practice at the Stadium at all before they compete and he said no. They just get what they call a walk through but never even let them on the track, it is more about practice track and call room procedures.


He says they are having technical difficulties, looks like problems with the standards.

Jeff says the pits are some Chinese brand.

Yang makes it big and gets a big cheer from the crowd.

Büchler misses, Molnar makes on her third.

Badurova runs through again and is out (I don't know if she attempted her second)

You must be in Canada. I couldn't find a proxy server that hides my location.
