Just noticed Canada's fifth gold medal in the decathlon means that is the second highest at one games ever (third if you include the boycotted 1984 games). For having the worst restrictions with Covid19 this an unexpected result.

That's it. Dawid is last Olympic champion on 50km race walk! What a beautiful story :cheer: 

 

@Monzanator @Adriano We can count his medal as always at least one surprising medal which always happen at each Games, like Sylwia Bogacka in London or Oktawia Nowacka in Rio :d 

Nowacka wasn't that unexpected since she won medals at World Champs before. The most unexpected I saw was probably Rzepkowski in skeet in 1996.

Hope all athletes will have a last celebration walk together after the race. This is the least they deserve.

 

How you can remove and completely kill this amazing and unique event. criminal act from IOC and WA

Hey, IOC wants 12 year olds kids doing tricks for 40 seconds. 50km walk stands no chance versus the urban crap :mad:

That is maybe a silent protest by Villanueva: He doesn't want the 50km at the Olympics to end and go the way of C2 Slalom and Individual Track Cycling Pursuit.

 

 

Awesome protest would be to keep walking, perfectly abiding by the rules, but taking 7+ hours to finish :d
