Non-Hockey 2026 Olympic thread

Apparently she was among the top skiiers in time trials before the race, but yeah wow what a way to go out.

Just watched this GDHTMB's favourite speed skater win gold and set an Olympic Record in womens' 1000m.

The Wranå kids made it to the final by beating Britain in the semifinal. The Swedish commentators kept referring to the Brits as Scotland, which I guess is what they are at all tournaments except the Olympics.

I didn’t really know who these people were, but turns out Rasmus Wranå is a member of Team Edin and his sister Isabella is the skipper of her own team, that has beaten Team Hasselborg for the Swedish world championship slot this spring. It’s Team Hasselborg that represents us at the Olympics though.

This is Isabella Wranå’s first Olympics and she and her brother have already secured a medal.

I'm so glad I'm retired although my workout regime is a bit more intense than yours. I should do more stretching type stuff, but I do more weight lifting and cardio (running and interval training)

I work because I want to.

Thats morning workout to get moving....I have a full scale home gym...thats at night.

I admire your discipline to living purposefully and in a meaningful way.

I've slowly shifted to getting busy living (Andy Dufresne) after getting out of the rat-race. Taken way too long to learn what's really important.

The getting up in the middle of the night part though... that's tough during the cold, dark Canadian winters. Probably the toughest Non-Hockey 2026 Olympic event.

Getting up early is what I do...doing it for years...a shifted timeline is all...pretty rare im not asleep at 9 PM.

Lol @ non O event line.

Pers bro sis combo win mixed curling gold.
