Like the new mixed swimming and running relays it's just more medals for the Sky 'Big Six' so the smaller countries can't catch them in the table. >:(

Using a pint of beer as the 'baton'?

We might win a few more medals then as half of our Olympic medals have been for boxing (first one was J.B. Yeats for painting).

Dina Asher Smith only 3rd in the semis, anxious wait now to see if she'll make the final.

Double Swedish on top in the men's discus. "I'm a Swedish Viking" from gold medalist Stahl. Love it.

That's the fastest proper race ever. Flo Jo's record shouldn't count. What's the story with them not liking each other?

Triple Jamaica in women's 100.

Brit in the final looked slower than me. Jamaican athletes are amazing.
