FILE – In this Feb. 21, 1980 file photo, U.S. Olympic Speedskater Eric Heiden skates in winning the 1500 meters speedskating event at Lake Placid, N.Y. Along with heiden, current speedskater Dutch Sven Kramer stands among one of the greatest speedskaters of all time. Kramer delicately framed his Olympic blunder for the ages four years ago in Vancouver when his coach inexplicably pointed him toward the wrong lane on a crossover and Kramer, just as inexplicably followed that road to Olympic ruin. Now, he has 15 days in which to turn that failure into the redemption story of the games, starting with Saturday’s 5,000 meters, where he is the defending champion. (AP Photo/File)
