Well, I wasn't expecting Sutherland to medal but thought she would still be a lock for the semis

Next session starts an hour later than I expected, extra hour of sleep  

 

Goodnight

It's great that Italian athletics has been revived and we're visible – it's not just about medals anymore, but we're still visible. This wasn't the case 10-15 years ago. The only thing missing is someone like Duplantis, Bol, etc., a sure- gold medalist. The rest is fine, apart from big mistakes like Iapichino yesterday.

Any point of Slovakia is close to Poland dude, 3 hours of ride from southern border to closest north border 

Strbske Pleso is beautiful- there used to be a ski jump arena. You could climb Rysy (mountain in Poland) from the Polish side and go down into Slovakia; the course from the Slovak side was much easier, if I remember. I have to go there someday and visit the old places; the last time I was there was in 2000 in Zakopane and Strbske Pleso, Poprad, Liptovski Mikulas etc.
