I honestly won’t be mad if Rodriguez  doesn’t win this 10000m after his early move. I’m just glad someone decided to create an interesting distance race for once at these Games.

Definitely nothing to be mad about there. Great race from Rodriguez.  1-2

In case anyone is wondering what TR 22.6.2 is…an athlete shall be DSQ if ”they knock down or displace any hurdle by hand, body or the upper side of the lead leg.”

 

She did pretty much run through that hurdle entering the final straight (even if she didn’t mean to).

 with 100 gold medals. The schedule was so crazy that after winning over 50 golds in the first three days I though they had a chance to beat the all time record (170). Still, they will surpass Lima 2019 result (122) which already was their best in years.
