Winter Olympics 2: ‘Gold, always believe in your soul

[Silverbirchleaf]

For all things Winter Olympics related.

You can't really stop though. Once you start sliding.

. No, they do two in the luge. But you can sort nestle between legs in the luge .

I always wonder what happens in the sliding events what happens about a false start. Must be disheartening to just have to carry on, knowing you've messed up.

This would be infinitely improved with a baton pass off - slider #1 goes carrying a baton; finishes; hands baton to someone from the athletics team who has to run up the stairs (there must be stairs for fire safety reasons) to hand it to the #2 slider who then sets off.

Ouch.

I thinkthey should do a luge /skeleton relay.

And see if they get confused,

But I don't think that would work- because of how they start off.

I wish they would use the word "least" and not "worst". That sounds so very negative. I think they are all super-brave.

I know- they are hurtling head first down an icy death slide!

They could do a relay if they ended up back I teh same place like all good fun park rides 😂

Such fun!

So, if i am reading this right, the first GB couple is after this Austrian pair.

ooh- that is a turn up- she slipped !

she twitched!

She flocked up!

What the hell is a twitch

one team out helps us

Oh dear.

But at least she has one medal.

Bravo!

False start, I think. All the lights at the top were red.

I hope our lot don't make the same mistake.

Lovely Freya!!
