Damn Steeplechase looks like segregation lol

The group of white runners are all in the back, while the group of non-white runners are all out in the front.

*edit* Man the winner (Yavi from Bahrain) is probably the only one who finished the race and didn't look like they needed oxygen and an IV.

The steeplechase is kind of funny, it's 3000m of running with a few random horse jumps in there lol

I tell ya, the last thing I want to do on a hard run is also jump over shit. :laugh:
 
Man, Steeplechase is the most unintentionally funny Olympic sport 😆😆😆

I had a great time watching that.

US women with Dygert and Faulkner beat the reigning world champion Brits in the 4000m team pursuit to advance to the gold medal race.
 
Crazy finish in this handball game against France and Germany. France was up 1 with six second lefts and the ball. Germany forces a turn over and gets a buzzer beater to force OT

It’s my new favorite sport.

I watched the final two laps of one of the heats to figure out where the water actually is on the track. I thought it was just like on the inside lanes and they put a cover over it for the regular races. It was on the final lap that I realized they actually cut off part of the turn to move off the normal track to get to the water.

Dumb.

I mean she's more than a volunteer. She said she wants to open her own clinic so she's probably logging "intern" hours. Pretty typical in the healthcare realm

Her mother wants her to get her PhD once she's finished with this sports nonsense. (actually her mom was one of the first people to encourage her to run)

These volleyball matches are exhausting to watch, in a good way. USA just won the 2nd set against Poland so now it's 1-1.
 
US Figure Skating team just received their gold medals from the 2022 winter games. Guess some skaters from Russia got caught doping, or I am assuming they did, and they moved down to third, bumping the US to gold and Japan to silver
