Erin Jackson earned herself a whole lot of United States fan support as she carried the flag at the 2026 Winter Olympics opening ceremonies.
On Monday, she'll be relying on that support to help her shine bright in the women's 1000-meter speed skating competition.
There will be 30 athletes competing for medals, with their races being held in pairs.
That means that there are 15 mini-races consecutively to determine who gets on the podium.
The competition gets underway at 11:30 a.m. ET (5:30 p.m. local), but Jackson won't be on the ice right away.
What time does Erin Jackson actually race?
Erin Jackson is in the 11th of the 15 pairings in the 1000-meter speed skating.
Based on race time plus preparation for the next race, each pairing should take at least two minutes (maybe more).
If we use two minutes as the estimate, that means Jackson will race sometime after 11:50 a.m. ET. It could end up being closer to 12 noon if things take a bit longer between each race.
