At the Paris 2024 Olympics, Hassan secured a bronze medal in both the women’s 5,000 m and 10,000 m events and gold in the women’s marathon, becoming the only woman to win the Olympic gold medal in 5000 metres, 10,000 metres and Marathon race.
She competed both Tokyo and Paris.
Nice political gesture here. Nobody should be telling women what they can and cannot wear.
A great honour. Part of the transition to the next summer Olympic Games.
In the TEAM competition,
Paul Juda was amazingly consistent over his Olympic run.

I’m old enough to remember when Gymnastics coaches thought gymnasts of African heritage were usually too tall, too heavy to be great at our sport. They actively recruited children of Asian heritage.
We were wrong.
Andrade, Biles and Chiles captured gold, silver and bronze in the women’s floor final. It was the first Olympic gymnastics podium with three Black women. …
The podium also represented 20 Olympic medals with Biles owning 11, Andrade six and Chiles three.
Handing out medals to just a few is only one small goal of the Olympic Movement.
Motivating children to do sport — I’d argue — is much more important.
