Can’t believe there’s no thread for this !
It’s really difficult to keep up with all the sports and events and how our Brits are getting on , with the time difference etc
Think we’ve won a gold in the skate boarding?
If anyone wants to add to this thread the medals 🏅 we’ve won and the sports/events that would be good 😊

Disappointing about Jade Jones but hopeful of a few golds to come soon. The time difference does make it difficult as you say to keep up as casual viewer.

I’ve moved this thread to Gasworks.
I don’t mind this being on the main board if it means more people will see it.

Skateboarding? Good to see the olympics getting back to its ancient roots!

As with the football and other sporting events, doesn't feel right without the fans.

Watching the triathlon.
Full of admiration for these superhumans.
If I try to combine a long walk with my dog and a trip to Tesco, I need a stroll to the pub to complete my triathlon.

They push themselves so hard and must be running on adrenaline at the end. So many can’t walk, once they have passed the finish line. Still no gold medal for Britain yet😩. The winner ran a great final lap though and pushed himself more.

Yee disappointed, but he’s still so raw and it was an incredible performance. The heat looked brutal and he beat some top, top, athletes.
Big hope for the women tomorrow too. Got a strong group, but heat going to be an issue again.

That’s real commitment and endurance.
