Ireen Wüst saw it on Sunday with the 1,000 metres, and that of her opponent, They to the Spill was disqualified due to two false starts and then, even with a bad race in 8 hundreds of a second in a world cup ticket is picked up. And then it was, in fact, the blijst with the success of her fiancé, Letitia de Jong.
The scream of joy after the final stage of up to 1,000 meters, it was not because of Wüst and saw that they just had qualified for the world cup distances. “It was because I could see that Letitia was to become,” said the 33-year-old province of Brabant, in the collection of the Vessel.
“Maybe it is a little odd, isn’t it? But that’s what happens when you really love someone and that person is very, very grateful. Leticia has been a couple of times and just don’t know where to post it and now she drove on Saturday to a good 500 meters (silver ed.) and she had to get back to the excitement of the charge. I was so proud of it like it did, and did what they had to do it. And qualified for all the tournaments.”
with The Young, the reed is in the final stage of the 1,000-meter And the Neeling, and Wüst had been out of the top three can be covered if both of the schaatssters faster than her time by 1.15,64 had been in place. However, it was Wüst, on that point is not totally concerned with her own fate.
“the final stage was played only in my head, that Letitia had had to qualify for it. I have more than that, I have my own place. Really. So, when I saw it, they all did well, have a good time riding and it was, came to my hands while in the air.”
De Neeling, at 1.15,76, just above the time, Wüst, so the five-fold olympic champion, to be the number three is also to the front of her. “I have enjoyed every bit of it to get it on with Leticia too. Ideally, I still had some to drive faster, but in the end it was a perfect scenario.”

Wüst from the start due to a false start In the Spill
That is a perfect scenario, this was the beginning of the journey of the Wüst is still a long way off. Her opponent In the Spill wasn’t at the start, and there was a second false start, uitgeschoten.
“I was pretty upset, I have to say,” said Wüst. “For They it is, of course, is completely useless, but on paper, it was a great ride. It wasn’t quite the weekend that They are, but you know that they have a special schaatsster is just like that of its frog can be shot, they’re not going to the olympic champion in 1,000 metres. So, I was very much looking forward to that fight with her.”
it’s a fight they decided not to, and Wüst had to be a mile solo race to try to the best of the three to skate. “For the third time to start it, I thought: well, I think a concrete pole and stand. And I don’t want to go faster. After that, it’s great to be on my own and to drive. The crowd helped, but it was my frame of reference is a bit lost.”
The rider of the TalentNED was, after all, is almost 2 seconds slower than the time it’s a trainingswedstrijdje recorded (1.13,86). “It was a bad race, there’s a lot more than this. However, I am very, very happy that it was penny and just the right side of the bar. All in all, it was one of the most memorable of 1,000 meters of my career.”

The Young can also go to the european CHAMPIONSHIPS and world CHAMPIONSHIPS distances (500 and 1,000 ft), and CHAMPIONSHIP sprint. “All of the tickets, so there will be Letitia, and I had a glass of wine to drink.”
