December 9, 20213 yr Author Thought I'd get this up as a) we're less than two months away from the contest and b) things seem to be kicking off in terms of diplomatic boycotts of the Games! Feel free to share any thoughts in here.
December 16, 20213 yr Author It's struck me that this will be the first Winter Olympics I've watched away from home! Hopefully I'll still be able to catch a lot of it on evenings.
December 16, 20213 yr I was going to say that I'd be happy if Elise Christie finally won a medal but I see an injury prevented her from qualifying and she has retired from speed skating.
December 19, 20213 yr Izzy Atkin: Olympic slopestyle medallist breaks pelvis two months before 2022 Winters https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/winter-sports/59716991
December 20, 20213 yr Author A shame for both Elise and Izzy then! Hopefully Izzy might be able to make some sort of a recovery but it seems as though there was no light at the end of the tunnel for Elise :(
December 23, 20213 yr Author I've just remembered that American skiier Gus Kenworthy has switched nationalities to Team GB since the last Olympic cycle, so maybe we'll get a few bonus medals this time round...

January 12, 20223 yr Author Looks like the time differences will mean I won't be able to watch any of it live! I'll enjoy catching up with all the action on the evenings though.
January 31, 20223 yr Author The Games start this Friday! Hope to see as many of you as possible joining in with the discussion - we'll have separate threads for skiing, snowboarding, skating, bobsled/luge and miscellaneous.
February 4, 20223 yr Author Anyone get the chance to watch the opening ceremony? I've just been watching the highlights now, seems like quite a spectacle.
