The Runthrough

The Runthrough

Olympians Adam Rippon and Ashley Wagner join forces with Sarah Hughes (no relation to 2002 Olympic Champion, Sarah Hughes) to tackle the most important questions figure skaters have been asking themselves for years. Questions like: “Why does this short program feel so long?” or “Is there such a thing as your costume being too tight?” and the most important question of all: “Will changing my hair color fix all my problems?” Join the team as they cover all the news, competitions, and drama of the figure skating season. Will they kiss? Will they cry? There’s only one way to find out. Follow us on instagram: The Runthrough Instagram

The final Olympic qualifying event is over! We break down everything that happened over the weekend in Beijing and we are MORE ORGANIZED THAN USUAL (threat). Highlights include a man who doesn't speak sign language, a woman who hasn't been to India, and a judging panel who doesn't seem to be watching the same dance programs as we were.

After a summer full of lore, we needed to touch base before on the current OLYMPIC season. Is this episode completely all over the place.? Yes. We had so much to cover and a lot to say.
