Was there a Biathlon where you had to shoot the pigeon and then cook it and eat it?

It's the horses in the water polo I feel sorry for.

Listening to Laura Kenny makes me understand why Jason is so quiet.

All down to the first 200. 100m splits were:

13.5; 13.6; 15.3; 16.0 (then the hammer went down) 15.2; 14.8, 14.1, 14.2

That's an impressive solid, consistent, take the race away, run, imo.

About This Thread

Maintained by Curly45
Couldn't find a thread so thought I would start one.

Who else is off to watch or who is watching at home?

We're doing Lille and Paris and a mix of sports. Currently trying to find travel insurance that includes ticket cancellation as some of the trains in the UK might be difficult and we have some internal French trains to do as well.

Also need to work out the new Paris metro ticket/app combo (Navigo I think).
