I know this has been discussed before on Slowtwitch, but if you are out there monitoring this site how did you like your finishing pictures? Perhaps I should be flattered that you found it so important to beat me in the final steps of the race, but we came in 27-something and none of us had a shot of qualifying or anything (since it was the final thing)
I understand it's a race, but rather than chase down the folks in front of me I thought I'd let them have their money shot and perhaps get mine as well. Instead I have a shot of you two yahoos breaking the tape and shoving me to the side. This was my last olympic gold and I won't live to get that shot at another one, but it seems pretty silly that you would ruin not only my shot but yours as well.
Good race.
