Perdita Felicien, after running so well in the preliminary and semi-finals, fell in the final of the women’s 100m hurdles. Felicien was expected to win, so the miss is heartbreaking – but the outpouring of support for Perdita is beautiful, and makes me a thousand times more proud than the medal would have.
