Poor Liu Xiang, worst injury timings ever. T__T

Good to see Lemaitre looking good, was disappointed not to see him run the 100m but hopefully he can be a medal contender here.

Phillips Idowu failing to make the triple jump final sucks for GB =(

Definitely keen to see Lemaitre, I'm cheering for him to get a medal.

Too bad for Whitfield. What a way to end his last (I suppose) olympics.

I missed his race but our commentators weren't that impressed by Lemaitre, but it's just a heat. I want to see him do well also.

One of them has a 15sec penalty, going to be really tough for him to overcome that.

Just to clear up, they aren't twins, they're seperated by two years.

But watching these guys run 10k after all that. This isn't fair.

Depends how Gomez does. They already have 20 seconds down to the group and it is increasing fast!

Newbie question: Is Triathlon always run in the same sequence (swimming-biking-running)?

Edit: So the best runners always win in the end? I mean, even if you're a superb swimmer, you're never going to get enough of an advantage to carry you through both biking and running. And excellent bikers attacking still have to deal with a chasing "peloton" and possibly run out of steam for running by going solo on the bike.

Ahh just so heart broken for Whitfield. I can't imagine a worse way for his olympic career to end, bar drowning.

If you are an excellent swimmer you will be able to get a very good placement before the cycling and that is extremely important!
Being good at cycling is more or less completely unimportant. Sure, you can save some power, but after it was made legal to take pace, it is mostly irrelevant. The running would be very important, no matter what since it is where you can make the big differences.

Haha yeah we won a bronze last night because we got lucky when they picked the balls out and we got to defend lol. I thought being the one in the defensive position was supposed to be a negative thing... Every match ends this way, this sport needs to go.

Why don't the competitors ever petition for a rule change then? Seriously, I'd hate competing in anything where I go home knowing you lost a coinflip and that's why you lost.
