Sophie Muir and Daniel Greig competed at the World Sprint Championships this past weekend in Obihiro, Japan.

Sophie finished 20th overall in the samalog placings, with the following results in each race.

Day #2 1000m - 1:19.27, 17th place

Daniel managed to skate 2 x 500m and 1 x 1000m but did not manage to make the final 24 for the last 1000m round, finishing in 33rd place overall.

Day #1 500m - 37.16, 36th place
Day #1 1000m - 1:13.66, 35th place
Day #2 500m - 37.57, 35th place

As of today, I am still not aware of any news in relation to Daniel Greig, Josh Lose or Ben Southee having been offered Olympic starting status yet. Hopefully news will be forthcoming very shortly.
Well done Sophie and Daniel on your efforts in Japan.

Joshua Lose will be competing in the 2010 Continentals Event in Calgary this coming weekend, which is a qualifying event for the allround World Championships. Good luck for the weekend Josh.
