Sibling love as its best, Olympic triathlete gives up first place to help little brother in trouble

Sibling love as its best, Olympic triathlete gives up first place to help little brother in trouble September 20, 2016

This is what Jonny had to say about his brother:

“Alistair had the chance to win but threw that away to help me out,” said Jonny, who led the race until temperatures of 33C got the better of him around 1.5km from the end. “I’ll be thankful for the rest of my life.

Obviously it takes a very strong and good person to do that. Sometimes in sport we talk about winning being the most important thing in the world. A lot of times it is, but maybe helping a brother out was more important.” (BBC SPORT)

In this case, brotherly love wins and we here at Clippity Clip love that!
