Brothers aren’t always insanely competitve.
Jonny and Alistair Browlee are two of the greatest triathletes in the world, with four Olympic medals between them. Alistair has won the last two Olympic triathlons, while Jonny took home silver this year and bronze on home soil in 2012.
At a race in Mexico on Sunday, Jonny had the lead with just 700 meters to go, with Alistair just behind him. But the heat became too much for him and he started to wilt, barely able to stay on his feet.
So Alistair paused to help younger brother Jonny, letting South Africa’a Henri Schoeman pass them for the lead.
