A nice Sussex connection with the GB Ladies hockey team, as Sophie Bray, Laura Unsworth & Maddie Hinch all play for East Grinstead Hockey Club.

Brownlees SERIOUSLY impressive. Incredible athletes.

That quote about their training times: FIVE repetitions of 2:05m 800m runs, with a one minute rest in between. Astonishing

Agreed-WTF is that all about?
People would bite gold to check it's real (softer than many other metals). Looks a bit naff when an Olympian does it IMO. The medals aren't real gold anyway (silver, coated in gold apparently).

Anyway...

Brownlees :bowdown:

Incredible.

Just out of interest Triggaaar woild you (like myself) prefer an actually Gold medal even if it was small say 50p size ? Just a punt.

GCCM,no doubt we are "little endlanders'' who are unable to see the bigger picture. Little thing like Free Thinking,Independance,Justice,and the list goes on.

Annoyingly, Yorkshire are 17th in the medal table.
I saw table yesterday which claimed a bunch of stuff for Yorkshire. Almost half the names on the list were not from it nor were based there now. Seems like a LOT of exaggeration is going on. Almost delusional sense of their place in the world. Reminds me of a couple of football teams up there...
