There is so much more involved in organized sports than just strength, speed, and agility. Sometimes there is also psy-ops. (via Boing Boing)This video is incredible. A Chinese speed skater takes off at the beginning of a longer race. Her teammate then sprints to the front, confusing everyone on the “final lap” and easily securing Gold and Silver medals for the team. Watch until the end. Great teamwork. pic.twitter.com/ogLc7zywxV

What this means, of course, is that by the time the next race comes along the governing body will have added language that allows for earphone radios for the skaters so that they can get updates from their coaches as to just what the heck is going on, just like they've already done for bicycle racing and motor sports.
