Dunadan 1,103 Posted August 17, 2022 #131 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I am in the process of creating a new political party whose main purpose will be to make a law which punishes any Italian who claps over the anthem from start to finish by chopping their hands off. phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swewi 297 Posted August 17, 2022 #132 Share Posted August 17, 2022 52.04 on Sjöström (flying start), why Did she not race the individual 100, she starts to get lazy by age At least now she gets medals for racing relays, not like for example in Rio, destroying individual chances by racing chanceless relays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumo 2,795 Posted August 17, 2022 #133 Share Posted August 17, 2022 The women's 200m butterfly podium was a sort of embodiment of me and my wife's family. My wife is Bosnian, I'm Danish and my wife's uncle has been living in Italy for the most of his adult life and is married to an Italian woman. There was a big satisfaction with this result in the family to say the least. Sindo, maestro, phelps and 5 others 3 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be pessimistic! I'm really impressed by Italian sport in general these last years (it makes a lot of jealous persons here in France..)! Congrats to your team! You will continue the "razzia" with open water swimming. 😌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassmarket 2,748 Posted August 17, 2022 #140 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Revised Timetable for the Open Water Swimming. I'm guessing "Mixed" in the sense that marathons and race walks are mixed - ie men go first, women follow a few minutes later. 19/08/2022 09:00 Open Water Mixed 10km 20/08/2022 09:00 Open Water Mixed 5km 21/08/2022 07:00 Open Water Mixed 25km 21/08/2022 13:30 Open Water Mixed Team 4x1250m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
