CARIVAN'S COLOMBIAN PERFORMANCE OF THE DAY - DAY 11

 

Ingrit Valencia (Boxing)

The fifth medal for Colombia comes in boxing. Ingrit completely overwhelmed her Thai rival and has reached the semifinals. She dreams of an olympic gold and winning Master Chef. The first one is just two fights away.

 

REST OF THE PODIUM:

 

2. John Murillo (athletics): Overshadowed by Ibarguen on his event, he arrived without much fanfare and achieved a great 5th place and a national record 

3. Fabian Puerta (cycling): Another 5th place, this time in the keirin. Another victim of UCI's willingness to bend the rules for some nations. He still made us proud.

 

 

 

 

Looks like its best ever finish by Colombia in Olympics.. Right with 3 Individual Gold from Same Olympics and first time ever..  And placed 2nd in South America after Brazil in Medal Table..

 

Great show guys..  I am great fan of James Rodríguez :)

Don't remind me. Some of those hurt a lot (both track cycling ones, Leidy Solis' in weightlifting women's 69k, boxing men's fly) but a couple were so unexpected that were actually very joyful (men's triple jump and men's mountain bike)

Yes. Our best results ever by far and a confirmation that the more serious approach we took since Beijing is paying off. Things are already looking up for Tokyo (Yuri Alvear is moving to Tokyo for the next 4 years, staying at the embassy to complete the whole podium: London bronze, Rio silver and hopefully Tokyo gold). It looks like we're here to stay.

 

And James was magnificent today vs Venezuela!!

Thread bump!

 

At the Tokyo Olympics, Luis Javier Mosquera got the silver medal at 67 kg weightlifting, just 1 kg behind Chen Lijun.

 

In BMX racing, Mariana Pajón couldn't get her third gold medal, and was silver by 0.1 seconds. Carlos Ramírez repeated a bronze medal.

    • Judo? That would allow France to win a lot of medals.
    • Nazgul entering finish line in womens team sprint qualifications.
    • luckily for all of us (myself included, I don't want to get mad), I will never rule on anything anywhere (not even at home) 
    • Easily the best work assignment I’ve ever had. It was an incredible experience in-person at the Arena di Verona. 
    • I know that probably nobody care about it here, but today in Wisła were held national championships. Only one round was held, with second being cancelled by heavy rain.   Kacper Tomasiak was winner with 128.0m, second was Dawid Kubacki with 131.5m and third was Paweł Wąsek with 122.5m, 47 jumpers competed in it.   Among womens winner was Anna Twardosz with 117.0m, second was Pola Bełtowska with 106.0m and third was Nicole Konderla-Juroszek with 88.0m. Only 4, yes four jumpers take parts in it, additionaly Konderla-Juroszek announced break from sport after being bronze medalist.    And still people were mad about Bełtowska results in Olympics. How it can be good when we have, now, just 3 active female jumpers???
    • And that's a wrap! The end of the Olympics always gets me. For a couple of weeks, the whole world is cheering, feeling the same highs and heartbreaks together, and suddenly it’s over. I’m really going to miss that.
    • I think Compagnoni is one of the biggest talents in the history of alpine skiing (in a different universe where she didn't have all those the dramatic injuries, she'd probably be a GOAT candidate), but in terms of career achievements, I believe Brignone is above her at this point.
    • Alpine Skiing Return of the team parallel event   Biathlon No change   Bobsleigh Remove the two-man and just have monotone and four-man for both genders.   Cross country skiing No change   Curling No change   Figure Skating No change   Freestyle Skiing Add mixed ski cross team event, mixed dual moguls team event, and a rail event   Ice hockey No change (yet)     Luge No change   Nordic combined Men’s team event back to four athletes Add one women’s individual event Add a mixed team event   Short track No change   Skeleton No change   Ski jumping Men’s team event back to 4 athletes per team Add women’s team event   Ski mountaineering Add individual and vertical races   Snowboarding Add PSL Add a mixed team parallel event Add rail event   Speed skating Remove the women’s 3000m and add a women’s 10000m Add the team sprint   New Sports Cross country running Men’s and women’s individual and team events, mixed relay   Cyclocross Men’s and women’s individual   Freeride men’s and women’s ski men’s and women’s snowboard   Ice climbing men’s and women’s speed men’s and women’s lead  
    • I never thought I'd see the day Italy had a 30-medal and 10-gold edition of the Winter Olympics, so there are probably too many to choose from.   Brignone winning the Super G, because to me that was the story of the Games from a human standpoint.   Lollobrigida winning the 3000 meters, because it was the most jaw-dropping performance for me, as everybody — herself included— was saying she had a very rough preparation for the Olympics.   The 1-2 in the men's skicross, because it was the one race in which I got to taste the excitement of gradually realizing that something unbelievable is about to happen. That's probably why the first moment that comes to mind when I think of that race is not the final, but the quarterfinal in which the Italians eliminated Howden.   If I have to choose just one moment, I'll go with those 3 hours on Sunday February 15th in which I saw Federico Pellegrino realize his dream of a relay medal, then Federica Brignone win the giant slalom, and finally Lisa Vittozzi win the first ever Italian gold in biathlon, with a silver medal in snowboard in the middle.
