Nick Thometz
Keith James "Nick" Thometz (born September 16, 1963 in Minneapolis, Minnesota) is an American former ice speed-skater. For most of 1987 he held the World record for men's 500 meter speed skating. At the Speed Skating World Cup of 1986-1987 he won the 500 meter and 1000 meter divisions. He also won a silver medal at the 1987 World Sprint Speed Skating Championships for Men. He competed in the Winter Olympic Games three times, but never medaled. He did in fact marry Rebeccky Sundtrump who placed a solid 6th in the olympics, good enough for second page.
