just bloody magnificent

Seeing McColgan and Keith there at the end of the 10000m is one of the images of Team GB's games for me. Lovely to see the support for each other.

I loved that. It's what the Olympics is about

It was also the perfect antidote to a Kenyan long distance winner. Call me a cynic.

The most embarrassing thing about that video is the fake laughter from the sniggering idiot who filmed it.

Did they win gold after?

Break dancing or epilepsy?

Jesus Christ … Breaking ?

It’s been a really good games for us track and field wise, despite some agonisingly close 2nds. We seem to have had British interest in most finalsc, and as things stand, we’ve won the 2nd most medals.

Jesus Christ … Breaking ?

WTF ?

I’m struggling to see how that is a sport ?

 

[vegster]

Jesus Christ … Breaking ?

Just watching it now, it seems to be an incredibly complicated and energetic way to polish a floor.

Reminder that this was approved as an olympic sport before squash

 

[Bry Nylon]

Jesus Christ … Breaking ?

Yes. Disappointed tbh.

I thought it was going to be who could dismantle a 1996MY Ford Mondeo LX the quickest. I had high hopes for TeamGB.

I'll never understand how Squash isn't an Olympic sport. Equally, I'll never understand how I've just watched Break Dancing on the BBC

Jesus Christ … Breaking ?

Already pulled from the next Olympics. Has no place in the Olympics.

 

[nwgull]

I’ve watched and enjoyed all sorts of sports that I’d never previously seems in the last couple of Olympics - skateboarding, kite surfing, speed climbing etc - but sorry, break dancing does not belong. I was expecting Brucie to come on at the end to announce the winner of that gold-medal ‘battle’.
