That, then is us. Thanks again for your company, and we’ll be back with you in two shakes of a lamb’s tail. Peace out.
And of course that thing that’s always coming but never arrives will soon be upon us – or not. Either way, just seven-and-a-half hours from now, the marathon race walk mixed relay gets going. Then there’s the women’s golf, a bunch of taekwondo, canoeing, climbing, and such, with the women’s 100m hurdles and men’s 5000m heats also going down – among other things.
The men’s 800m heats, for example, and the women’s speed cycling final. Actually, there’s loads of cycling in various guises, including the team pursuit final at 5.33pm BST – GB are in that one. And the big track and field finals in the evening are the women’s pole vault, the men’s discus, the men’s 400m – feat. Matthew Hudson-Smith of GB, the fastest man in the world this year – and the men’s 3000m steeplechase.
And so, so much more.
