10 years ago! A lot of blood, sweat and tears went into qualifying, competing and becoming an OLYMPIAN. There is a lot that happens before and after the big show, most unseen but the OLY stays with you forever. β¨ Be proud of your accomplishments β¨
Olympic coverage should always be like this. Pointing out who has served bans and not sweeping it under the rug. This is far from the first time but it rarely gets enough attention and clean athletes are the ones who suffer!
For #BellLetsTalk day, check out my post from a few years ago about the depression I went through. Mental health happens to everyone, we just all need to recognize it in ourselves to overcome it together. https://t.co/liwiGyFKMT

Reading @TheRealMerb experience of deciding to retire from track is very comforting.When I was making my decision, I was always looking for other athletes experiences w/ retiring so that my feelings felt valid. Read and reach out to others to talk about it if you think itll help.
Mathieu Bilodeau finished 45th in the 50km race walk, with a season-best time of 4:20:36. He also got a measure of redemption, after not finishing in Rio in 2016.

Evan Dunfee wins Team Canada's first ever Olympic medal π₯ in the 50km race walk at #Tokyo2020 πππͺ
Race walk into the details β‘οΈ https://t.co/fGg0QYboyi
And to think the @iocmedia took the 50km racewalk out of the upcoming @Olympics because it was βtoo longβ, βboringβ, βnot relatable β. Well these guys just proved that wrong yet again. Especially @EvanDunfee last surge at the finish to get a medal.
Tomala really crashing, only 1:42 ahead of 2nd place. Itβs not impossible to be caught with 4 minutes to go. 2nd and 3rd place both have 2 red cards π€¦π»ββοΈ
Tomala of Poland just hit the bell lap and is likely to win. Now the race for silver and bronze is going to be tight! Itβs scary and exciting all at the same time π¬ The Spanish athlete Tur has 2 red cards!
With 5kmβs of the 50kmβs to go @EvanDunfee just walked one of his fastest 5kmβs of the race in 22:22. Itβs going to be a fast last 2km and thatβs where the medals will be decided!
