Our youth world championship tripple-jumper got pregnant, which really stretched our small team. 

You mean your triple jumper who got silver at the 2012 junior world championships instead of gold at a youth worlds?

Small error, mixed it up, because she won gold in European U23 a couple of years later.

Only last year actually, I gotta admit I didn't know her yet. But it's a shame she met Kilty, it'd be much more fun to see her in Rio

yes. 400m was his best discipline, but now it seems not but ok, this is good result.

*A couple of years after her silver (was what I meant)

Whole Lithuania thinks that it's a shame she met Kilty and there was this huge scandal with our federation about her pregnancy. She can meet all the Kilty's she wants, but she could've waited after Rio at least with the pregnancy thing

I mostly meant that he was looking like he suddenly got an injury in the last 50 meters or so
