    Nice finish to the race!

    I didn't like the walking across the line to be honest - felt like he was taking the piss out of Gomez

    Unbelievable for a pair of brothers to win gold and bronze. Could have even been a 1-2 were it not for the penalty. I like the flag thing as well, it looked completely unplanned. The person that gave him the flag was delighted with herself.

    Great performance for Gavin Noble imho.

    Ya the RTE lads said he was aiming for a top 30 finish,looks like he was unlucky to not finish in the top 20,fair play to him maybe if he didnt pick up that injury earlier in the year he would have been pushing for a top 15 place on todays showing

    Yer man Gomez was waving to the crowd when he was walking over the line. I think it happens a lot in Triathlon.

    Last day of artistic gymnastics coming up in a few minutes. Men's parallel bars, women's beam, men's high bar and women's floor. High bar is really exciting to watch, and beam and floor are always great. Routines to watch out for: Epke Zonderland on high bar, Zou Kai on high bar, Catalina Ponor, Sui Lu and Larisa Iordache on beam and Aly Raisman, Ksenia Afanasyeva, Vanessa Ferrari and Sandra Izbasa on floor. There's only one or two girls under 18 competing today..in before 'they're all 12!!'.
