There was a surprise in the Mens 10,000 race.
Uganda did not win a medal.
But: there's always an inspiring backstory.
Uganda's Samuel Simba Cherop lost a shoe early on during the men’s 10,000m at the Commonwealth Games, but persevered to run the fastest time of his career. He ran the final 15 laps in one spike and a sodden sock.
WOW!!

This games is moving way too fast for me, I can’t keep up, I must be getting old lol. Seems like too many things are happening all at once. Anyone else feel that way? I didn’t have this problem watching the olympics a couple of years ago. That seemed to go at a much more enjoyable pace.
Yes, champion @Flippedy, much the same for most of us - a shortened Commonwealth Games. less sports and events and what's left: a full-on non-stop event .... a bit like the Games version of a Maccas drive-through!
And it's all down to our former Victorian Premier, Dan Andrews, who used the Games for votes - then bailed out and had to pay Glasgow to pick up the pieces!
With 21 medals, South Africa’s Chad le Clos becomes the most-decorated athlete EVER at the Commonwealth Games after winning bronze in the men’s 4x100m medley relay at #Glasgow2026.
Oh is that what happened! No wonder it’s weird, glad it’s not just me thinking something wasn’t right. Bloody Dan Andrews left a legacy of destruction everywhere he went. So glad not to see his ugly mug on TV anymore.
