World Cup Update

Written by T Dobbin
It's already been a week since the first World Cup in Heerenveen. Shane has been in Berlin since Monday preparing for the second World Cup held in Berlin. Racing last Sunday in Heerenveen wasn't one of Shane's best races in the 5,000 meter. He was very disappointed after his result so this week he's hungry to do better. Last week Shane ended up finished in 15th place with a time of 6.30.92. This time was enough to keep him in the A division for this weekend's World Cup in Berlin, however it's a whole week longer in Europe therefore he's had more time to adjust after the travel and get over the Jetlag. Today Shane will skate in the second pair with fellow ex-inliner Roger Schneider from Switzerland. For a full list of the pairs for today's 5,000 meter please go to http://live.isuresults.eu/2010-2011/berlin/d205.htm Keep posted for results from today's World Cup or go to http://www.isuresults.eu/ for full results.
