5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee confirmed celebratory cocktails won't be on the agenda after winning gold and silver medals in the Rio 2016 Olympic triathlon. "'We're from Yorkshire. Cocktails definitely aren't our style!" Alistair quipped. "If we were stood at the bar drinking a cocktail where we live, never mind if you had an Olympic medal around your neck, you鈥檇 be chucked out quick and called all sorts of profanities!" he added. Victory for Alistair Brownlee meant the 28-year-old became the first athlete to win successive Olympic triathlon titles, while brother Jonny, 26, improved on the bronze medal he won at London 2012. This clip is originally from 5 live Olympics on Thursday, 18 August 2016.
