Mike Posted August 5, 2024 Posted August 5, 2024 been watching a lot over the last couple of days highlights today below, any more to watch out for? In a fast and dazzling Tokyo 800m final, Keely Hodgkinson delivered a sensational Olympic silver medal in a time that broke a British record set by Kelly Holmes in 1995. Three years later, can she go one better? Athing Mu, who took gold in Tokyo, will not be in Paris after falling during US Olympic trials, but Kenyan world champion Mary Moraa will. The final starts at 20:47. When mixed team triathlon (starts 07:00) was introduced to the Olympics in Tokyo, the GB team of Jonny Brownlee, Jess Learmonth, Georgia Taylor-Brown and Alex Yee won it. This time around, France and Germany are likely to be major medal threats.

Mike Posted August 13, 2024 Author Posted August 13, 2024 all things back to normal now eh so what was the verdict on 2024 Paris? myself thought bit of a downer that the bbc didn't have the rights to broadcast as much as per past games so was harder to discover the more 'obscure' sports but overall though was an enjoyable games 2028 is the next one, man alive
