Paris 2024 Olympics Thread - 11th August (pg 430)

Triathlon is being unpredictable.
The currents in the Seine caused havoc, the bikes are playing skittles with each other on wet cobbled corners. 55 competitors and maybe 7-8 have crashed by the second lap of 7.

I wrote this before any of the tennis info updated, so you might have to look for that if you're interested.

nice one! the Olympics website is a bit crap to navigate.

Looking forward to the Track & field events starting from tomorrow,
 
Excellent result there, she looked absolutely fucked and you could tell she didn't have it in her to breakaway as she kept looking over her shoulder. I think she was the quickest runner but after the other two events clearly didn't have enough. Alex Yee has an excellent chance of gold in the mens.
 
Such a bizarre sport that. What inspires people to do that? Is it just you're not great at running but walk like a twat?
The rules on cheating are also a farce. If they used cameras or var 95% of them would be disqualified in the first km. instead they insist on keeping judgments done by eyesight only, and get 3 warnings I think.
For 5km, mens world record 18 mins, womens 20 mins. Anyone who’s ever done a parkrun will know how laughable those times are to “walk” 5km.

And yep, if you do it, you look like a twat ;-)
