Pactar per guanyar
M’ha sorprès la polèmica que hi ha hagut al Campionat del Món d’Atletisme que s’està disputant a Budapest perquè les dues atletes de la perxa van renunciar a jugar-se la medalla d’or en un desempat. Hi ha crítiques de persones tan capacitades com en Martí Perarnau (@martiperarnau). En una piulada va dir que era “una decisió contrària a l’esperit de competició. Queda molt bonic i les ompliran de…

2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Tied, still, after multiple rounds, and instead of continuing with a jump-off, Mutaz Essa Barshim (Qatar) asked if they both Gianmarco Tamberi (Italy) could shared the gold medal in the men's high jump event. They both agreed to share the gold medal. <3

U.S. men win 4x400 relay thriller in Olympic-record time
Tumblr media
Aug 9, 2024; Saint-Denis, FRANCE; Rai Benjamin (USA) celebrates winning the men's 400m hurdles final during the Paris 2024 Olympic Summer Games at Stade de France. Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports PARIS -- The United States continued its dominance of the Olympic 4x400 meters relay on Saturday as Rai Benjamin held off Botswana's Letsile Tebogo in a thrilling last-leg battle between two individual gold medalists. The U.S. as expected, dropped Quincy Wilson, the 16-year-old who struggled badly in the heats, but did not bring in individual 400-meter champion Quincy Hall, instead adding 400m hurdles champion Benjamin to run the final leg. Chris Bailey took them out but handed over the baton in third to Vernon Norwood, who ran a stormer in the heats and repeated it in the final to send Bryce Deadmon off in the lead. Botswana's Anthony Pesela, however, closed the gap to set up a dramatic finale. Tebogo the 200m champion who was drafted in at the last minute to run the first leg for Botswana in the heats on Friday, sat on Benjamin's shoulder and looked poised to pass him entering the final straight. Benjamin's one-lap speed endurance showed, however, as he held him off to win in an Olympic record two minutes, 54:43 seconds. It was a remarkable 19th gold in the event for the U.S. Botswana, bronze medalists in Tokyo, took silver in an African record 2:54.53 with Britain taking bronze in a European record 2:55.83. The race was of such high quality that fourth-place Belgium and fifth-placed South Africa set national records, and Japan in sixth set an Asian record. HIGH JUMP New Zealand's Hamish Kerr won gold in the men's high jump with a best effort of 2.36 meters (7.74 feet) after a long and grueling final, securing his country's first medal in the event. Defending champion Mutaz Barshim of Qatar got the bronze with a season's best 2.34 (7.68 feet), leading to a war of attrition between Kerr and American Shelby McEwen as they sparred for the gold. Both started to tire and failed to make it over 2.38m (7.81 feet) in three attempts. The bar was lowered back to 2.36, then to 2.34, which Kerr was the first to clear and clinch victory. After sailing over the bar, the Kiwi ran into the middle of the field and flopped onto the grass in joy and relief. It was an impressive result for McEwen, too, a personal best and a huge improvement after finishing 12th in Tokyo. Barshim was likely feeling a sense of deja vu as he watched the duel. It was after such a stalemate in the Tokyo final that he and Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi decided to share the gold medal. The Qatari did a celebratory backflip off the mat after his last jump, with the bronze his fourth medal in as many Olympic appearances. Tamberi, who was suffering from kidney colic, fell out of contention early on, distraught after failing to clear 2.27m. 5,000 METERS Norway's Jakob Ingebrigtsen bounced back from defeat in the 1,500 meters to win the Olympic 5,000 meters gold with a fierce final lap, just as he did in the last two world championships. Ingebrigtsen was the defending Olympic champion over 1,500 but was run out of the medals and was determined to make amends in the longer distance, having taken gold in the 5,000 in the past two world championships after also losing in his favorite event. His rivals played into his hands on Saturday by running most of the race at pedestrian pace, keeping the huge field of 22 together until the last few laps. Ingebrigtsen was initially caught in the pack, but did not panic, easing his way through and forging ahead with 250 meters to go to come home well clear in 13 minutes, 13.66 seconds. Kenya's Ronald Kwemoi got ahead in a charge for the line to take silver with American Grant Fisher adding a brilliant bronze to the one he picked up in the 10,000. "For me the 5,000m is over triple my usual distance, so it was a very tough race," Ingebrigtsen told reporters. "With the level being so high, people are running so fast this year, I knew I had to be at my very best to be able to fight for medals." 800 METERS Kenya's Emmanuel Wanyonyi held off one of the strongest fields in history to win the gold medal in the men's 800 meters, securing his country's fifth consecutive Olympic title in the event. The 20-year-old Wanyonyi blazed to a time of one minute, 41.19 seconds, making him the third-fastest man ever over the distance. Canada's world champion Marco Arop furiously tried to overtake the Kenyan over the final 100 meters, but finished one-hundredth of a second behind in 1:41.20. Algeria's Djamel Sedjati, the favorite after going unbeaten all season and setting four world-leading times, made a tactical error in sitting near the back of the pack for too long and crossed the line in 1:41.50 for bronze. MARATHON Ethiopia's Tamirat Tola won gold in the men's marathon while Kenyan Eliud Kipchoge, who had been bidding for an unprecedented third consecutive Olympic crown, failed to finish. Belgium's Bashir Abdi took silver, improving on his bronze from Tokyo, and Kenya's Benson Kipruto claimed bronze. Tola built a strong lead early on and crossed the finish line in two hours, six minutes and 26 seconds, an Olympic record time especially impressive given the course was the toughest of any Olympics or championship, according to World Athletics. "My intention was just to keep up with the people who were going out and then after some point I decided to try to push on my own," Tola said. Emerging from a pack of frontrunners from the first steep ascent of an exceptionally hilly course, the former cross country specialist seemed only to strengthen on the second hill as others faded behind him. Tola had an 18-second lead by the 35km mark, which he extended as the Eiffel Tower came into sight and crowds lining the streets roared him on. He became the first Ethiopian winner of the Olympic men's marathon in 24 years. Abdi and Kipruto were jostling with Ethiopia's Deresa Geleta for the next two steps on the podium but Geleta faded in the last two kilometers. Abdi, who began his career competing in the 5,000 and 10,000 meters, finished in 2:06:47 with 33-year-old Kipruto posting a time of 2:07:00. Kipruto had posted the fastest time in the world this year having won the Tokyo Marathon in March in a personal best of 2:02:16. Britain's Emile Cairess finished an impressive fourth in 2:07:29. Kipchoge, widely considered the greatest marathon runner of all time, failed to bag a third consecutive gold, defeated by the first ascent of the course that took athletes out to Versailles. He had been among the frontrunners but that hill broke up the leading pack and proved too much for the 39-year-old, who was participating in his fifth Olympics. Kipchoge clutched his side as challengers streamed ahead of him. After the race he said back pain had overwhelmed him and made him stop. Read the full article

Olimpiadi, 5 curiosità sulla più importante manifestazione sportiva
Le Olimpiadi sono l'evento sportivo più grande e prestigioso al mondo e quest’anno si disputeranno a Parigi. La capitale francese è ormai pronta ad accogliere i migliaia e migliaia di atleti che prenderanno d’assalto il Villaggio Olimpico in attesa di entrare in azione. L’obiettivo, manco a dirlo, è quello di provare a vincere almeno una medaglia, cercando anche di ribaltare i pronostici degli esperti, come quelli di Betway Sports. C’è chi è a caccia della prima e chi, invece, cerca la riconferma, compresi diversi azzurri come Marcell Jacobs, campione nella 100 metri piani e nella staffetta 4x100 insieme a Tortu, Desalu e Patta, o anche a Gianmarco Tamberi, medaglia d’oro nel salto in alto insieme all’amico qatariota Mutaz Barshim. Per non parlare poi dei vari Vito Dell’Aquila, Antonella Palmisano e Massimo Stano, tutti ori a Tokyo 2020, che proveranno a ripetersi anche stavolta. Questi sono ovviamente soltanto alcuni dei tanti atleti che prenderanno parte alla XXXIII edizione dei Giochi Olimpici. Oltre alle imprese sportive, però, ci sono anche alcuni aspetti interessanti e curiosità che, forse, non tutti conoscono. Il significato dei simboli olimpici I simboli olimpici, come i cinque anelli interconnessi e la fiamma olimpica, sono diventati icone globali riconosciute in tutto il mondo. Ma qual è il loro significato? I cinque anelli olimpici rappresentano i cinque continenti del mondo - Europa, Asia, Africa, America e Oceania – che, in occasione delle Olimpiadi, sono interconnessi tra loro attraverso lo sport. Nella visione dell’ideatore della bandiera, il barone francese Pierre de Coubertin, lo spirito fondante della manifestazione era la fratellanza tra i popoli, uniti in un unico luogo per un determinato periodo di tempo nel nome dello sport e dei suoi valori. La fiamma olimpica, invece, ha origini nell'antica Grecia, dove veniva accesa durante le antiche Olimpiadi per commemorare il mitico fuoco prometeico. Questo simbolo di purificazione e rinascita è stato riportato in vita nel 1928, quando la fiamma olimpica fu introdotta come parte dei moderni Giochi Olimpici. Da allora, la fiamma olimpica viene accesa durante una cerimonia a Olimpia, Grecia, e viene trasportata attraverso una staffetta fino alla città ospitante, dove brucia per tutta la durata dei Giochi in un ampio braciere apposito. Il Villaggio Olimpico Quando pensiamo alle Olimpiadi, spesso ci concentriamo sugli eventi sportivi e sugli atleti, ma c'è un mondo intero che si sviluppa dietro le quinte: il Villaggio Olimpico. Si tratta di una vera e propria comunità autonoma, con infrastrutture, servizi e una vita sociale unica. Durante le Olimpiadi, il Villaggio Olimpico diventa la casa temporanea per migliaia di atleti provenienti da tutto il mondo e qui possono stare insieme e conoscersi. Insomma, un luogo dove le barriere linguistiche svaniscono e l'unica lingua universale è la passione per lo sport. La città ospitante L'assegnazione delle Olimpiadi a una città ospitante è un momento di grande gioia e orgoglio nazionale, ma c'è molto di più dietro questa decisione. In primis, il Paese che decide di candidarsi, deve avere un Comitato Olimpico Nazionale (CNO), riconosciuto dal Comitato Olimpico Internazionale (CIO). Il CNO ha il compito di promuovere e sviluppare lo sport nel Paese, mentre il CIO, tra le sue varie funzioni, funge da supporto per le istituzioni locali interessate ad ospitare i giochi. Ciascun Paese deve infatti elaborare un progetto serio e concreto affinché possa essere preso in considerazione dal Comitato Internazionale. Le città olimpiche sono spesso selezionate in base a una serie di criteri, tra cui infrastrutture esistenti, capacità di accogliere grandi numeri di persone e l'impatto economico e sociale a lungo termine. Al momento della votazione, ciascun Comitato Nazionale avrà quindi il compito di votare per il Paese che ritiene più consono ad ospitare le Olimpiadi, con le elezioni che procedono fino a che una delle città candidate non ottiene la maggioranza. Gli sport “scomparsi” Gli sport che prendono parte alle Olimpiadi sono cambiati nel corso degli anni. Infatti, diverse discipline una volta parte integrante dei Giochi sono scomparse, mentre altre sono state aggiunte per riflettere l'evoluzione degli interessi e delle tendenze globali. Tra le discipline che oggi non ci sono più figurano il cricket e il polo, presenti nelle prime edizioni dei Giochi moderni per poi essere successivamente abbandonati. Interessante è poi il caso della danza che, dopo esser stata a lungo fuori dalle Olimpiadi, tornerà proprio quest’anno con la break dance. Quasi ad ogni edizione dei Giochi c’è sempre una novità e di recente sono stati aggiunti al programma nuovi sport, come, il surf, lo skateboard e l'arrampicata sportiva che hanno fatto il loro debutto olimpico alle a Tokyo 2020. I record olimpici L’ultimo paragrafo dedicato alle curiosità riguarda i record olimpici, ma quali sono quelli più impressionanti e duraturi nella storia? Uno dei record più iconici è senza dubbio quello di Usain Bolt nei 100 metri piani. Il jamaicano ha fermato il cronometro a 9,63 secondi a Londra 2012, stabilendo un primato che tuttora nessuno è riuscito mai a superare. Un tempo, questo, che però non bastò allo stesso Bolt per battere il record mondiale, da lui stesso firmato ai Mondiali di Berlino del 2009, di 9,58 secondi. Tra gli altri record troviamo poi il 19”30 sempre di Bolt nei 200 metri registrato a Pechino 2008 e poi battuto dallo stesso velocista a Berlino 2009. Entrambi i primati non sono stati ancora mai battuti. Per quanto riguarda invece il numero di medaglie vinte alle Olimpiadi, il record spetta a Michael Phelps, uno degli atleti più forti di tutti i tempi in virtù delle sue 28 medaglie raggiunto definitivamente a Rio de Janeiro 2016. Il primato precedente era di 18 medaglie stabilito dalla ginnasta sovietica Larisa Latynina. Foto di copertina: https://pixabay.com/it/photos/nuotatori-nuoto-piscina-79592/ Read the full article
