The commentator says: "The European Champion of the year heralding the World Champion". Heiden would win as long as he finished the 10K.

Sublime performance by Heiden. His 5km was even more impressive, 6.59 with a 11 sec gap between him and the runner-up Mike Woods - and this was home ground for the fire S-ene who had to concede that pesky youngster from Wisconsin was miles ahead in a league of his own. Thank you very much gunstein1 for uploading this footage. A slide down memory lane. Heya Norge!

Great to see the best skater of all time - Eric Heiden - win this 1500 meter in a devastating style!

@@Osa49 Thanks!!! I got to meet Dr.Eric at a bike race in June of 1980.This was near San Diego.I used to live in Caif ( 16 long years ) and left there in 1994.He was so nice and I was so nervous! I had my pix taken with him.Many years later I got to meet Dan Jansen and got a pix taken with him too.My old Norwegian friend lives in the village of Gan,near Fetsund.I saw her 6 years ago and want to visit her one more time.
