Is it weird that he is carrying his watch rather than wearing it?

Maybe he can look without breaking his arm rhythm? Uh oh, Yee has closed up and now passed Wilde!

[Toddy]

fuck it

[MiketheSnow]

Destroyed his soul

[canefan]

What a race. Hard luck Wilde, great job pushing him to the brink

[Bones]

Ahh fuck man, impressive finish. So close! Good on ya for the silver fella

[SouthernMann]

Well fuck. What a run from Yee

[canefan]

They both look totally fucked

[Donsteppa]

Could see Wilde running out of gas there. Had there been another 200m to the finish I don't think he'd have held silver - so in the end a bloody good achievement. Amazing from Yee to find that extra gear tho.

That was brilliant from Yee

Converted a 15 sec deficit to a 6 sec winning margin between 1:41:38 and 1:43:33 :astonished_face:

MR is around?

[Canerbry]

Incredible effort from Yee, so close to being the same for Wilde, lets face it a great race from him too.

[canefan]

Wilde ran a great race. Made Yee beat him, and that's all he can ask for

[Canerbry]

That's what the 'Lympics is about.

Hugging each other at the end, great mates apparently

That was a bit gutting. I feel for Wilde but from the looks of it he left it all out there on the run. Can't feel too bad for him.

[Chris B.]

Aarghhh!!

Wilde climbing stairs at the end.

He just needed to have one more little surge to disillusion Yee's chase.

Wonder why Yee let him get so far ahead.

Must have burned a lot of fuel making up for the swim.

[KiwiMurph]

That's how you time your run

Silver nothing to sneeze at.

Great race

Maybe Yee was sticking to his own race strategy? With about a km to go he looked cooked. Fuck bloody
