Charlotte Kalla was the first person to get a gold medal in cross-country skiing

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Swedish cross-country skier Charlotte Kalla secured the first gold medal of the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 on Saturday 10 February, winning the women's 7.5km + 7.5km skiathlon by a comfortable margin from Norwegian legend Marit Bjørgen.

The Swede won in style, making a break midway through the last of the four laps to cross the line 7.8 seconds clear of Bjørgen, who made all the early running but came up short in her bid to win the event for a third time running. Finland 's Krista Parmakoski completed the podium, with Sweden's Ebba Andersson just out of the medals in fourth.

Golden hat-trick for Kalla

A 10km freestyle gold medallist at Vancouver 2010 and a 4x5km relay winner at Sochi 2014, Kalla is the first female Swedish athlete in her sport to win three Olympic titles. A skiathlon silver medallist behind Bjørgen four years ago, the 30-year-old Kalla now has six Olympic medals to her name, also a national women's cross-country skiing record.

"It means a lot," said the victorious Swede afterwards. "I was quite nervous today and the Olympics is something I have focused on for a long, long time. It's felt great during the season but I know everyone wants to be in shape at the Olympics. It was really exciting and fun to compete today.

On the finish line. I did not want to look back. I just wanted to focus and keep pushing all the time. I felt so happy crossing the line but also relieved. Most of all, though, it was pure joy.

Consolation for Bjørgen

Two-time defending champion Bjørgen was aiming to become the first cross-country skier, male or female, to win three Olympic gold medals in one individual event and the first woman to collect seven Olympic gold medals in cross-country skiing.

The 37-year-old Norwegian legend had to content herself with another record, however; her silver took her medal tally to 11, making her the most decorated female Winter Olympian of all time.

I am very happy to take a medal in my last Olympics and still to be there. Charlotte was stronger than me, but I am happy with silver.

"I should have been more aware when Charlotte was attacking. She was too tough for me, so I think that silver was the best for me."

The indefatigable Bjørgen has designs on returning to the podium at PyeongChang 2018: "I am here to take medals. It is my fifth Olympics and I am happy to be here at my age."

Cross country skiing

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Switzerland's Dario Cologna produced a remarkable show of power and endurance on 16 February at the Alpensia Cross-Country Centre, as he became the first ever cross-country skier to win the men's 15km event three times.

In doing so the 31-year-old showed himself to be a supreme master of all styles. In Vancouver, back in 2010, he had won over the distance skiing free style; four years later in Sochi he triumphed again when the race was contested using classic, and at PyeongChang 2018 it was back to free style.

Four golds and counting

The Swiss was fastest at 6km mark and remained at the front until the finish. Simen Hegstad Krueger (NOR) - gold medallist in the skiathlon five days earlier - took silver, crossing the line 18.3 seconds after Cologna, while making up the podium was Denis Spitsov (OAR), who finished 23 seconds off the pace.

His latest victory takes Cologna's overall tally to four Olympic golds, as he also won the skiathlon at Sochi 2014.

"It was just amazing," said Cologna. "It was really hard work and I really wanted to win again here after Vancouver and Sochi. I still cannot believe I am the winner of the gold medal."

Having drawn level with ski jumping great Simon Amman on four golds, Cologna's victory means he is now just one gold medal away from becoming the most successful Swiss Olympian of all time.

"Three times in this event and four gold medals. Now I am together with Simon Amman, the only Swiss who won four times in the Olympics. To write a little bit of history, it is not bad.

"To win in three different Olympics is very hard work over many years. I had two not-so-easy years, the last two, but really wanted to be back. It feels very good to be back on top."

In a different league

Meanwhile silver medallist Krueger was quick to pay homage to his Swiss rival. "Dario wasin another league today," said the Norwegian. "He was amazingly strong. To take a silver medal is a victory for me.

"It is a bit unreal. The whole championship has been a dream. I had a small hope to maybe take a medal but then standing here with one gold and one silver medal out of two competitions is, what can I say, it is unbelievable."

This is the first year figure skaters get to have lyrics in their music. In the top left corner you will see different colored dots.
Green= Good
Yellow= Under Review
Red= Bad
If you have a green dot then you get points, if you have a yellow dot then the judges are deciding green or red, if you have red then you don't get points for that element.

Mirai was very graceful. But why were the American's so bad? Or kind of?She was so good in the team event. 2 reds in her performance. Not as good as she was hoping for. Didn't even do her triple axial like she was hoping she could do the triple axial in the team event.

Alina- Why does Alina have her tights over her skates? She is only 15 years old. About 2 minutes in she has 13.79. She has a lot of triple stuff. What is the difference between a triple loop, triple triple, triple toe, and triple lutz and the other tricks? All green dots! with 81.92.  So far in first can the 15 year old beat the older Russian? This is her first season in the Olympics. 239.57!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That score put her in first place very high above of everyone else.

Yevgenia- She loves to compete. Her first element got her 11 points. How long has she been skating? She skates a lot with her soul unlike  most other skaters who dance with their brain. Arms over your head shows the judges you have control over your arms, which she did that.Lots of beautiful spins, at the end of her performance, she has lots of facial expressions. She might not have enough points to beat Alina. Earns a 238.26

Who won? Alina by just a little bit!
