WOW! What a race, that was awesome. I figured the Kiwis would surely catch them after they came out to such a hot start, but that strategy worked. Now onto Penny to try and make it 2.

 

In other news, Mason and Lovett are both out to hot starts in the high jump..

I jinxed Mason...

Very cool watching the women's eight medal ceremony - world feed announcer naming the hometown of most of the athletes as they get their medal.

Women's BMX semi was going at the same time as the 100m final and I had the double screen up - solid 3rd place finish for Mechielsen in the first heat

Insane  4 fourth place finishes in the pool and all smashing the NR

what happened to bishop?

So if my math is correct, we need the Kiwis to beat ROC by 34 points for the Canadian women's sevens team to advance..
