Just watching race walking on the olympics before I hit the sack. I don’t know what it is but since I’ve had it on in the background before I go to bed for about an hour, I feel obligated to watch them finish. Race walking looks so awkward, very unnatural. What’s cool about it is since it’s the 20k they have the track going out of the Birds Nest so all the footage of the racers has the Nest in the background. It looks pretty cool. 4km to go, I guess they’re going to end up back in the Birds Nest for the grand finish. Is Kazakhstan going to take it??
