Really appreciated @LauraKenny31 putting her backing behind 8 gold medals for @TeamGB in track cycling. Has me on the edge of my seat now! Come on @TeamGB!

Congrats, @BritishRowing. Fantastic results and brilliant racing! #TeamGB
We brought 42 athletes to compete in Paris (plus spares)
36 - 8 crews, more than any other nation - will return home with a medal. Only 🥈 by an inch kept us off the top of the table.
MASSIVE congratulations to PD Louise Kingsley & her team. So proud!

@British_Airways your baggage portal is not fit for purpose. Lost bag, no way to report it and no contact from you whilst abroad.

I could do with your help to reach my fundraising target. Every single share and donation makes a difference. gofund.me/96d081e6
A great cause to help kids of all ages and backgrounds to access competitive rowing... gofund.me/96d081e6
"The partnership would be worth 206 in 186 balls: bodies have been wrapped in blankets and dumped in the Thames more tenderly than Crawley and Root treated one of Australia’s most accomplished Test pace attacks." Great stuff from Gideon Haigh in the @thetimes this morning.

A true modern pentathlete. #champion independent.co.uk/sport/olym…
The passing of a legend. I saw #TinaTurner live in Berlin in 1990 the summer after the wall came down. She would've had pride of place at any 'fantasy' dinner party, too. What a performer!

I very much enjoyed the chat with John and Michael about the important work of the @GBEliteAthletes. Hope the jetlag isn't too obvious! #BEAA
Latest pod from @AnythingbutF and a special episode to chat with @DominicMahony about his first 100 days as chair of @GBEliteAthletes - the organisation looking after the interests of the nation’s elite sportspeople. #Olympics #Paralympics #WorldClassProgramme

A charismatic, warm & generous man, and a tremendous athlete whose legacy lives on. Jim came back to Modern Pentathlon in the 1990s to lead @PentathlonGB when we needed him most. He will be greatly missed by generations of Pentathletes. Thoughts are with Ali and family. #Legend
#JimFox, winner of an @Olympics #modernpentathlon gold medal at #Montreal1976 after he uncovered cheating by a rival from the Soviet Union, has died peacefully at the age of 81, @pbarkersport reports insidethegames.biz/articles/… @TeamGB @WorldPentathlon @PentathlonGB
World-class swimming. World-class career. Gabriella Doueihy’s story exemplifies what can unfold in a culture of belonging. At #EYCanada, she bridges career and athletic goals to succeed in an environment that fosters both. spr.ly/60123B1rI

Terrific interview. I hope our new white paper from #EY @Lane4Group supports a broader view of economic value and the role of business alongside government. Download here: lnkd.in/efxNWijg

Yesterday I spoke on @BBCRadio4 to challenge Truss's rally cry for 'growth, growth, growth'. It's tough figuring out how to overturn a deeply entrenched paradigm in just a few sentences - I gave it a go. What else would you have said? Listen in at 2:47:00 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001cp…
Truly star struck by @CamillaGEHarris and the cast at @GarsingtonOpera on Weds. Wonderful performance topping a terrific season.
I hope @WorldPentathlon will make this a 'hybrid' Congress - commonplace in large business meetings now. Those able to travel attending; those not, fully involved online. Last year's Congress was in no way optimal with no space for consultation and not enough debate.
This is not far fetched. As previously pointed out by others teapawt.net/Pentathlon2021/status/… the UIPM SG used the Zoom format to deny delegates (I was one of them) to have the floor. This could not have happened in a live setting. teapawt.net/Pentathlon2021/status/…
The key word is 'if'. You'll spin it any way you like, it seems @WorldPentathlon
