Rgirl said:Maybe I missed it, but from what I read the article doesn't say Sasha and Kimmie are "training partners." They're both just going to the same rink about 90-minutes outside of Torino rented by the USFSA in order to train in a more relaxed atmosphere, away from the media and the hype. For all we know, the two may or may not ever be sharing ice time.
Even if they do share ice time, what's the big whoop? It's common at the Olympics and other events for compeititors to share training ice. The top skaters know how to focus on themselves. IIRC, Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Haarding shared some practice ice in '94. They just ignored each other.
