This might be old news to those who follow track and field outside the Olympics, but its new to me.

I really hope Noah Lyles doesn't run into any of the USA basketball team in Paris, because some s--- might go down.

the women's marathon is being staged on the route of the Women's March on Versailles in 1789. (It was a key moment of the French Revolution, with cries of “Liberté, egalité, fraternité!” reverberating around the city.)

Notably, the women's marathon and basketball finals – not the men's, as is traditional – will bring these Games to a close.
