Milano Cortina 2026 Olympics: Day 5

We've hit the point where we have no idea what day or date it is, but we know we're in Milano and that there's an Olympics going on, and that's all that really matters. More members of Team Keep the Flame Alive competed today, and we've got their results and all of the other action that took place at Milano Cortina 2026.

We had a big cultural day, hitting up Casa Brasil, the Brazilian hospitality house. Jill went to a press panel on the current state of the Italian fashion and design industries (which also threw some shade at Paris 2024). Then we both went to an On Location LA 2028-themed cocktail party that had Italian versions of American burgers, fries, hot dogs and other finger foods. Apparently they think we really like salt.

But there was great competition today. We've got results for:

Alpine skiing
Biathlon
Curling
Figure skating
Freestyle skiing
Ice hockey
Luge
Nordic combined
Snowboard
Speed skating
