Why don't you guys just check sagames.org instead for the constantly updated list of south african athletes. All times are south african.

Go SA!!! :D
 
Great silver medal. Le Clos went from 8th to 2nd in the last 50 metres. If he could sort out his dive then he'd be winning every race he enters...

His dive was fine, the other guys just over-paced themselves. Both he and Phelps both gained 6 places after the halfway mark.

He emerged from the dive in 5th or 6th and stayed around there until the turn...
 
Great race. Unfortunately Phelps won't make the same error again so soon.
 
They don't have reaction times up yet, but it almost certainly would have made no difference.

Yeah, I'm with Garson on this. Chad likes to start slow, conserve energy and then surge. I'm not sure how much a faster start will affect his finishing but I'm sure him and his coach will review his strategy after the Olympics.
 
Updated for Saturday.

Thank you very much :-) So excited to see Oscar run in half a hour. I know no one is expecting him to medal...but just to see him run his heart out with the other able bodies athletes in the Olympics. Gonna be beautiful and a special moment I think. :-)
 
Unfortunately she got unhitched quite early on in the running part of the triathlon :( ... about 15th or so.

Ja ... I was trying to figure out what was going on cause I could not see a South African in there....and then later they showed the others thats behind and we were 16th or something :-(
