All the action and reaction - including Howie Sanborn somersaulting in his wheelchair - from a mammoth & most successful day ever for Team USA in Paralympic paratriathlon (And given they topped the medal table in both Rio and Tokyo that’s not bad going) triathlete.com/events/olympic…

2 days after their paratriathlon golds (PTWC), Netherlands’ Jetze Plat defends another Paralympic title in handcycle TT, while Australia’s Lauren Parker wins silver - missing top spot by 9.5sec over 14km. Plat now 2 from 2 with handcycle road race and wheelchair marathon to come

Three out of three Paralympic golds for Jetze Plat as he takes H4 road race. Just the wheelchair marathon - toughest of the lot - to come.
