LOL - love the guy in photo number 8 clinging to the upright while he resets the bar! Did he shin up the pole every time? Looks like a pro.
And wow! The lady athlete - amazing and inspirational for me - reminds me of a line from a poem I once read about female tennis players:
"Girls with faces like Raphael angels
And thighs like a battleship's hawsers."
Quite. Count me among them... one day soon. Though I think Raphael may have given up the day job if he produced MY face on an angel! I think the 'hawsers' are not out of reach though...

That's Heather. She is AMAZING! I'm in her practice group here in CA. I throw about half as far as she does on my BEST day... which, unfortunately, was not at Queen Mary.
The sheep getting ready to be herded:
The athletics field in front of the boat.
The Ladies with our medals and "We're done!" smiles.
Who's the woman in the Buchanan Tartan? - a great look.

That's Sonya, she ROCKS that kilt and can make the Buchanan tartan swish like no man on the hammer throw!
She's my fellow teeny tiny thrower and I'm always chasing her numbers.
