JamesCraven Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Good news for Canadians. Chantal Petitclerc has won Canada's first gold medal in the women's wheelchair 800 meter race tonight (8/22) in Athens. Now, you'll get to hear your national anthem in easy-listening style! "I better go take a long walk off a short pier or something."Some people on this bolard have told me to do just that.My "Ron Mexico" alias is "Jon Tobago".

DEAD! Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 The wheelchair race was actually demostration so it does not count in the medal standings. As for Devers's fall, it's not as good as Brigette Foster's fall in the 100m hurdles at last year's world championship. I saw, I came, I left.
