  1. Important preparation for a mountain bike rider to live in a country that is nothing but mountain. Same reason speed skaters live in the Netherlands.
  2. Will be launching the “contaminated batch of COVID vaccine” excuse tomorrow.
  3. Yeah, thought they were to blame but you can also get DQ’d for being in the wrong place.
  4. That’s not too bad, win 3 Golds in 10 minutes in Paracanoe & also one in Diving in Rome.
  5. Irish paracanoeist’s canoe was literally held together by string.
  6. And the nation they knocked out? Italy.
  7. Going to be legal problems for & in the women’s 4x400, one of them will be DQFed for the second change. Some Slavonic swear words exchanged.
  8. Yeah, they messed up the last change & of course the fourth girl did not have the speed to catch up.
  9. Nairo Quintana tests positive for Tramadol. Not actually banned, but his results at the TdF have been wiped. https://inrng.com/2022/08/nairo-quintana-disqualified/
  10. Dropped baton at change 1….. Field their B team - 5th in their heat, but faster than
  11. Rocking fourth place like a Canadian!
  12. And are lighting candles to the Intention of the Blessed Virgin, Stella Maris.
  13. Judges giving away free extra jumps in the heptathlon long jump for some reason. Looks like two athletes got free jumps - and they both NJed!
  14. Revised Timetable for the Open Water Swimming. I'm guessing "Mixed" in the sense that marathons and race walks are mixed - ie men go first, women follow a few minutes later. 19/08/2022 09:00 Open Water Mixed 10km 20/08/2022 09:00 Open Water Mixed 5km 21/08/2022 07:00 Open Water Mixed 25km 21/08/2022 13:30 Open Water Mixed Team 4x1250m
  15. French win on appeal.
  16. Šutej manages to injure himself twice in the PV - badly cut hand, then bruises her ribs on the bar.
  17. Defeatist attitude: it’s like getting free roulette spins here.
  18. He did collide with Manga 2nd & third hurdle: don’t know who was to blame. Put in a protest & get a free re-run is my advice to Polish coaches. Plenty time to the final.
  19. Also: lapped runners who don’t get out of the way.
  20. Swimming Gold for , you don’t see many of them.
  21. Sure, but how often in the history of Decathlon has anyone ever made up 40 seconds in the 1500m to win overall? I’m sure it happens sometimes, but at this level? Don’t think I’ve seen it in forty years of watching. Even 10 seconds is considered huge.
  22. The guy who beat him was in 8, so….
  23. Perković takes the lead back….
  24. Got three guys on 8.06 in the long jump.
  25. They’re all being allowed a second run, though.
