The most curious thing..
She is a member of the IOC. I’m guessing they are all getting to present some medals.
Men’s 100m breaststroke Olympic final winning times:
2024: 59.03
2021: 57.37
2016: 57.13 (then WR)
2012: 58.46
2008: 58.91
It was a pretty slow race, tbh. But well done, Adam.

But it's been mentioned a few times it's a "slow"pool

I'm currently reading Phil Kay's autobiography at the moment (no, not Peter! Phil is, in my eyes, the greatest comic of his generation and his book is like his shows, hyperactive titbits of mirth. A comic never afraid to fail but always wanting to connect).
This little titbit (written around 2012) I love and thought it might amuse someone else too.
"It has been a very Olympic year. We have been buying Brussels sprouts on-the-stalk and keeping the last few sprouts on the top and running around with it held up like the Olympic torch is coming through town.
Plus, I have been opening the back door of the old eight-seater estate car with two hands like the clean-and-jerk weightlifter".
Love him.
Been reading it with the Olympics on the TV, muted, and the windows open listening to the Libertines waft in from their gig on the beach.

Its a shallow pool, 2.5m instead of 3m I think I read.
Leads to more "chop". Apparently.

Which is exactly why I’ve swapped to EuroSport/Discovery+. Yes they too have their own bunch of nauseating individuals but less so than the Beeb.
Heavy water?

In the first two days there have been 4 Olympic records set.
Michelin starred gastro water innit, a bit thicker than the ordinary bog water.

Silver for team GB!! Well done Tom Daley, what an inspiration and what a career.
What an Olympics this is turning into for us, incredible scenes and the medals just keep flowing.

Well, they dived as well as they could've.
A great silver by Tom and Noah. And a wonderful way for Tom to bow out if he chooses.
But China were on a different level.

No winners medals yet!
The Chinese are levels above, no shame at all in coming second to them.
Superb silver for Tom and Noah.
