They don’t make as much use of the little steeplechase paddling pool for my liking
They need to incorporate it into more events

Hold on, BBC, is this pet duck lady? If so, loving it.
Limited the damage. Don’t think she’ll be happy with that tho.
Nah, had another 30-50cm in that if she’d hit the board right
Don’t think Thiam has done that much better though
It’s gonna be an edgy javelin

Bit odd that they’ve got hamish on b2 already… giving the last 4 beta for the later boulders 
They’re in isolation so can’t see what people are doing.
Is it a different course to the boulders they tackled earlier in the week?
Nah they’ve got ondra out on b1 now while Duffy is on b2
Sure, but that’s normal (for semis and combined anyhow). They’re not looking at others when climbing - there’s not enough time, they just focus on their own boulder.
Hall’s out of it after that jump
Kat pretty much guaranteed her first Olympic medal now, which is nice

Genuinely pumped for the breaking. When does it start?

You can’t say guaranteed in the multi events when there’s always the chance (however slim) that 3 fouls could happen in a field event
Less likely in javelin than most others though
Normal for semis, don’t remember them ever doing it for finals…
Combined relatively new so maybe I’m misremembering.
And yeah they’ll mainly be concentrating but doesn’t mean they won’t gain an advantage

Yeah that’s why I said pretty much guaranteed tbf to me

I think they normally do for combined just for time reasons but might be wrong.
Tbh it’s just another reason why the combined format is so shit. Really hard to keep track of everyone and compare performance

I’ll be heading over to my GF’s later. And I’ve warned her that if I have had a couple of drinks and see the breaking on TV and say ‘I can do that’ and drop to the floor, they need to intervene very quickly.
I’ve wormed across the floor on NYE a couple of times, and it was neither pretty, or good for my back.

Lol, Sorato doing it on cheat mode😃
Oh looks like 3pm
I’m really nervous for Kat. Hoping she can do something pretty special in the Javelin similar to her shot put. Her Javelin has been getting better in the last few years, along with her 800m

I ‘fucked’ my neck doing a backward roll at a wedding at 4am in 2009 and it’s still not better. Never did that again.
