• Gold In Skeleton

    Posted by Graeme Harrold on February 20, 2010 at 10:00 am

    At long last GB has a Gold medal in the Olympics. Having briefly done skeleton, I know Amy did 4 amazing slides down the course, and to put in a final fastest time on the last run when the pressure was on was just amazing. Just need the women’s curling team to pull one out of the bag.

    2am??? Bought a Freesat HD recorder to get sleep 😀 Watched the third run and had to go to bed. Seems Vancouver is now the fastest track adding an extra 20Kph to the speed. I only just broke 100kph on the Calgary track :lol1:

    Sat up and watched that too….the girl did well….feel sorry for Hollingsworth though….as they said it isn’t like coasting home on the last lap of the 10,000 mts, anything could have gone wrong up until the last corner. Gripping stuff.
