Qualifying out of the way, I'm sitting in 5th. I had a girl fall in front of me in the 1500, and I should move up a placing in the 500's this afternoon.

So stuff to watch. 500m heats and finals from 4 pm tonight, then relays tomorrow after 11.

Plus there are free speed skating passes for the Thursday skate school sessions!
