FILE - In this Jan. 13, 2013, file photo, Ireen Wust, center, and Antoinette de Jong , left, of the Netherlands, compete during the women's 1500 meters race at the allround European speedskating championships at Thialf Stadium in Heerenveen, northern Netherlands. Time and again over the last half century, the Dutch are top or near the top of the speedskating standings at any Olympic and for a nation of 16.8 million, it often defies giants like the United States, Russia or Germany. This time too, the Dutch have a realistic chance for a half dozen gold medals on the big oval. (AP Photo/Peter Dejong, File)
