Athletes often shoot for as many medal events as possible, and sometimes even enter events
they don't fully expect to win. Although training the most as a short-distance
sprinter, Lee Sang-hwa also entered the 1-thousand meters.
She's not vying for a podium finish, but was still one of the top 12 fastest speed skaters
for the event. China's Zhang Hong clocked in at a minute,
14-point-0-2 seconds to win the gold. The Dutch team continued its dominance in
the event, taking home silver and bronze. Multi-medalist Ireen Wurst who won the 3-thousand
meters on Sunday... and Margot Boer, who already earned the bronze on 500-meters.
