Day 4, Session two was one of the most amazing nights of track & field that I have ever seen. On that night, Thiago Braz Da Silva won Brazil’s first gold in the pole vault, David Rudisha won the 800 meters and Shaunae Miller and Allyson Felix tangled in the 400 meters. Here is my audio on that amazing night, broken up with lots of rain and wind as winter comes into Rio!
