Great Britain’s Brownlee brothers embraced at the triathlon finish line after winning gold and silver


Four years after capturing gold in men’s triathlon in his home country, Alistair Brownlee won it again on Thursday. And since he knew he had a huge lead, he slowed down near the finish line, and took in the spectacle while crossing it. Meanwhile, his brother Jonathan, who won silver, was catching up with him in the background; he finished six seconds before Alistair, thanks to the early celebration.
But their times don’t really matter here. What matters is that the triathlon’s ending was basically two brothers winning the top two medals, and embracing each other at the finish line. It’s a really sweet moment. No, you’re crying.
