Amazing, human machines

What is amazing, astonishing? Who knows a little about speedskating and the developments in it should know it.
Last weekend there were time trials in the Olympic Oval in Salt Lake City. The results were good, amazing how many PR's the sporters skated and in 3 days 5 new Worldrecords were set. When I woke up in morning I was flabbergasted. The last set Worldrecord was the 500 meters, Shani Davis skated 15/100 seconds faster. Or a Dutch guy of only 19, who set the 5000 meter Worldrecord 90/100 seconds sharper. Amazing and what a power, human machines.
