Re:
Johaug screaming and barely out of breath is not what I expect after going all out for 3 minutes on a hard track that was made harder by the rough and choppy/soft conditions.
As far as the skating is concerned, there is nowhere else to put the topic. This is the only (to my knowledge) xc topic on the cycling news forum. The point is, the powers that be are afraid to penalize the top athletes, particularly the Norwegians. Remember, a few years ago, Rickardsson was penalized a few minutes for doing a similar move that Northug made? Northug was given a warning. Seems like FIS is afraid of even touching the Norwegians.
jsem94 said:Should have been penalized. But that's not a topic for the Clinic. And this screaming? Hardly a result of PEDs. More a result of wearing her heart on her sleeve. It was cute the first time, in Holmenkollen, but it's getting too repetitive. Like she was almost as happy over making it to the semis in a TDS sprint as she was winning the 30km in Kollen. Really?
