I love watching the backmarkers finishing the marathon, you can see all of human emotion

whenever we participate in athletics competition at the Asian Games. half of our athletes leave the stadium directly to the hospital ! and it didn't change this year.

 

so far 1 out of 1 for the hospital

Wow, that marathon finish  

 

For a moment I thought the incredible finish between the Mongolian (who else but Ser-Od Bat-Ochir the Eternal )and North Korean was for bronze (I replayed as far as I could on the live stream, which was until right after the finish when they were showing replays), but apparently that was for 5th. The fight of the Kyrgyz and Korean guys to make it to the finish was quite something too though

1,2 for China in women's hammer , Tv broadcasting of the event was really bad i've never seen where the hammer lands

Apparently this Asian record of 10.79 was set at the Chinese Games in 1997. Well, that explains everything.

Bahrain have made this African Games.

Apparently starting 10000m race is a very tough job for the organizers...
