 Igor Malkov Information
He set a new, official, world record later the same season, when he finished in a time of 14:21.51 at Medeo in March 1984, almost 30 seconds behind his personal best.
His official world record would last for almost two years (until broken by Geir Karlstad on 16 February 1986) and his internationally unrecognised record was unbroken for four years (until broken by, again, Geir Karlstad, on 4 December 1987).
The following seasons were not so good for Malkov, and he quit top skating after the 1988 season, although he made one more appearance at the Soviet Allround Championships of 1990.

It was summed up nicely by the performances in Calgary.
No gold medals, as the Swedes took care of skiing and skating (Tomas Gustafson won two gold medals, while the Norwegian hope, Geir Karlstad, fell), and Matti Nykänen fought with Jens Weissflog in the ski jumping hill (though Erik Johnsen managed a silver in the K90).
The only hope came when Lillehammer, a backwater town midway between Oslo and Trondheim (Norwegian metropoles, the former the size of Cardiff and the latter the size of Sunderland), was awarded the Winter Olympics.
