    <p>Well it's 12:45am now and there's still two races to go before Carrington's race (Men's K-2 200m and Women's K-1 500m final B ), so I can't see that happening.</p>

    <p>Rio's website has usually been spot on when it comes to race times.</p>

    Looks like Tom Walsh has thrown a qualifier. Gill not far off on his first attempt

    No gold, our girl is in a 3 way decision for two medals after finishing strong. Carrington with bronze!

    <p>Bronze, just because we need to balance out the number of golds and silvers...</p>

    <p>Bit disappointing she missed out on silver but eh, that's a good result. Carrington may have won the last world championship 500m but the gold medallist (and multiple time world champ) didn't compete in that event, so it was hard to measure how they stacked up against each other.</p>

    Anyone know how the shotput qualifying goes? Seems to be a mark of 21m which walsh and 3 others have hit, Gil is a further 2 places back will they have the best of the rest for the final?

    <p>They need to either throw over 20.65m to automatically qualify or get into the top 12.</p>

    <p>Edit: I saw that edit, hydro!</p>
