Dutch success on Sochi ice leaves others feeling sick

The flying Dutchmen all made it look so easy. Propelled by legs as thick as tree trunks, they turned speed skating's longest and most grueling event into a bright orange procession.

In Tuesday's 10,000m race, the three Dutch entrants finished first, second and third, with Jorrit Bergsma winning the gold medal, Sven Kramer taking the silver and Bob de Jong capturing the bronze.

Just as they have throughout the whole Sochi Winter Olympics, the Dutch skaters gave their rivals no chance at the Adler Arena they have magically transformed into their own golden pond.
