4speedy that's hilarious! You should make a video! Anyone else notice the tan lines on Simpson? Poor girl probably runs her normal runs in shorts and has to wear those racing briefs here. DH was like, why is she wearing nude shorts under her blue ones? Newp, that's her non-tanned bum.
And is that the first Canadian man to medal? The women have been dominating.
Yes, first Canadian man to win a medal in Rio. The women have been doing amazing, especially in swimming. He ran an awesome race, I'm glad he got to the podium! I think he'll only get faster, he's only been running the 100m for a few years. Don't know if you know the backstory, which I think someoe else mentioned, but in high school, he ran the 100m on a whim (he was a basketball player), ran under 11 seconds and won the race. He got bronze at World's last year. I find the mentor/mentee thing he has going with Usain neat, since Gatlin and he will likely retire before 2020, so Andre will probably step into their shoes.
Yeah we rooted for Bolt over the doper. Except my 4 year old inexplicably wanted the Canadian to win.
My taqueria order wasn't ready on time and I was worried I wouldn't get home in time. Olympics watching is so stressful.
Is the American the doper? Only wonder because the announcer said that Bolt hasn't spoken to the Amerrican since he (US) won the world championship last year.
Also, guy who came 4th (Jamaican guy) had s hamstring tear a couple years ago where the muscle tore completely off the bone required surgery. Ew. That is crazy.

There's a fair few Jamaican youngsters waiting their turn too!
There's always more people training in the wings. Can't wait for the 4x4.
