Well, the red car was the javelin carrier, and the big red box flattens the sand.

BTW see the rows of cameras lining up next to the sand pit? If only I could put my camera there...

Brazilian Maurren Maggi won the gold medal for Women's Long Jump, beating the Russian by 1cm. (See official result)

Right after she got the Brazilian flags from her friends, she asked a Chinese spectator for a small Chinese flag, and did her victory lap carrying both flags.

Even with other final event going on at the same time, she managed to capture lots of attention, and received lots of cheers wherever she went.

A small gesture that brought lots of goodwill!

I think this was the Women's 4x400m relay.

One of the medals award ceremonies.

Competitors for the Women's 5000m run enter the stadium.
