Lydia Ko wins the bronze for those who are not sleeping.
Are you watching replays? That happened yesterday.

Lol. Basically I haven’t been watching the Olympics and of course I don’t see any New Zealand coverage so I’m way behind :-).

4 x 400m men's relay.
USA win gold in a season best, but the biggest surprise are the Dutch, who win silver in only their second appearance in this event (1980 being the first). Botswana win Bronze, I think they said in an African record.

Apparently an Aussie out after 10km. Thought it was the Park Run?
In all seriousness, it must have been an injury. Getting one that early must be absolutely soul destroying.

Going for 2hrs10min. That is absolutely farking nuts.

His name, Kipchoge, is a Nandi language expression for "born near the grain storage shed.”
The possibilities are endless for that.

Kipchoge is a machine.
He's making this race look like one pro vs amateurs

Kipchoge just ran the last 5 kms at 3km/min pace. I mean what the actual fuck?
And then looks fresh as a farking daisy when he finished.

Feel sorry for the Kenyan in 4th.
All of these times are crazy. It’s hard enough to finish one let alone run it in 2:20.
