Bronze in Men's 50km race walk?  Evan Dunfee was upgraded from 4th to 3rd after an appeal for getting bumped by Japan's Hirooki Arai in the final couple kms.  The Japanese walker (no TWD pun intended) was DQ'd.  Canada expects Japan to make a counter appeal.

Sport is a funny thing. We're happy for Dr Grasse for winning Silver and will be happy if we win Soccer bronze.

But in one-on-one gold medal showdowns, you never win the Silver, you lose the Gold.  

It's the difference in how the events are set up.  Those one-on-one situations to determine gold/silver are funny, it's the only situation that you "win" the silver medal by losing your match.

Degrasse looked a bit flat coming out of the turn but finished strong. Congrats!

So is Bolt about to come out and prove that he's still the best? Or are we going to see the giant fall tonight?

Decathletes are insane

 Mastering 10 disciplines and compete over two days is quite a feat.  Makes for a long two days

I can't even imagine the amount of time you must have to spend training
