Orangehair43 172 Posted July 15, 2021 #2271 Share Posted July 15, 2021 I think also those athletes who either have to compete on many days to finish an event or compete in multiple events will be more at risk than those who are only competing on one or two days.

Vic Liu 1,574 Posted July 16, 2021 #2272 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Politics lovers, here we go, first round. First round is quite "civilized" and requiring some East Asian history knowledge to understand this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted July 16, 2021 #2273 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Interesting how Mr Bach keeps insisting he makes a trip to Hiroshima, even though locals are against it, and the actual key people of the Olympics - the athletes - are dropping like flies at this point due to both true and false positive tests, or just ludicrous quarantine rules. But then again, who am I to question the Master of the Universe himself? #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was he doing there in the first place, considering Uganda has no weightlifting quota? Edit: I see, he was on a waiting list and had been informed he didn't make it. Was in Japan in case he would, makes sense. Sad though.. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
