I really enjoyed watching that. Made me realise how little riding and swimming figures in my life now.
I have a meeting now but is BBC showing the whole men’s race? iplayer I guess?
yes, 9:45 start
iplayer was about a minute behind so the commentary on here included a few spoilers/heads up action
When did Richard Murray change nationality?
Streaming services are always about a minute behind traditional broadcast TV (currently, the boffins are working on reducing this)
Last year. He’s not really missed in the SA squad
Schoeman and Riddle could be a fierce combo in the swim.
I’m guessing its because of his marriage, but odd considering his Comm/Oly representations. There’s a rule in swimming you have to wait (3 years iirc) with no competitions for your old nationality.
Don’t think he represented them since covid year and then he had a heart issue so wasn’t doing much I don’t think…
Yeah the triathlon one is much shorter. He did a couple of races as an “ITU athlete” and then switched
taking “hugging the bank” to a new level.
BBC1 just jumped away to a recorded documentary on diving. FFS!!!
Great first lap from Alex. Go Go Go.
you need to change channel in iplayer
I couldn’t find it on iPlayer when it switched so went to discovery and will change back soon.
K Blum +37
Wilde +42
Found it on iPlayer.
I can only get the diving on iPlayer!!!
Found it! Geez, I’m getting old.
