19:35 Amir Khan offers to help health effort
We reported earlier that London 2012 venue, the ExCeL centre was being transformed into a hospital to aid the COVID-19 relief effort.
Now Beijing 2008 boxing silver medallist Amir Khan has offered up a large building of his to be used for patients with hospital beds at a premium.
Since turning pro in 2009, Khan has been a unified world light-welterweight champion and is now in the hunt for a welterweight belt.
Rio de Janeiro's famous Maracana, which hosted the 2016 Olympic men's final, is one of several Brazilian football stadiums being converted into field hospitals to treat COVID-19 patients.
More than half of the teams in the 20-strong Serie A league have given up their arenas in Rio and Sao Paulo with those two highly-populated cities struggling for hospital beds.
That 2016 gold medal decider between Brazil and Germany was a remarkable match which had pretty much everything. And you can relive it here.
17:10 Beach Volley Viking finds new partner
Beach volleyball fans will know all about Norway's top duo Anders Mol and Christian Sorum.
But did you know that Mol has an elder brother Hendrik who also plays in elite competitions alongside Anders' former partner, their cousin Mathias Berntsen?
The four are actually known as the Beach Volley Vikings.
Well, yesterday's announcement re Tokyo 2020 looks to have given Berntsen pause for thought - or should that be paws for thought? - with his dog Kiara playing her part in a contender for best sporting/animal crossover video of the year so far.
16:50 Pole vault champ Stefanidi is off schedule
Yesterday's postponement of Tokyo 2020 would have been followed by several fitness regimes and training schedules going out of the proverbial window.

16:35 We have a winner!
Those videos of athletes working out with their children at home are amazing and there seem to be plenty of them.

If you find one better, let us know on Instagram or Twitter.
16:05 Margarita Mamun and another baby workout
We're definitely seeing a trend for using loved ones in home workouts, from cats to small children.
And the kids are running away with this - we mentioned Margarita Mamun with regard to 'Sports Swap' earlier (see 12:50pm post). Well, here she is with what I think we can describe as a vigorous 'squat and press'.
The Russian rhythmic gymnast retired soon after her gold at Rio 2016, with the Averina twins taking over at the top.
15:35 Sakura Kokumai podcast!
The latest Olympic Channel podcast is up and it's a goodie.
Kata karate athlete Sakura Kokumai was confirmed as having made the sport's Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020 this week at the end of the two-year-old qualification period in which she competed around the world.
She's gone straight from that into quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic, saying, "I went from travelling non-stop for two years out of a suitcase to kind of being forced to being in one place."
Kokumai, 27, also speaks emotionally about the loss of her former 'Sensei' and how knowing that she is going to the Olympic Games is "the greatest feeling ever".

12:15 The wrong tattoo... or is it?
Paraguayan marathon runner Derlys Ayala bemoaned his choice of tattoo after yesterday's announcement that Tokyo 2020 would be postponed until next year.

Here's another glorious workout to behold, Ukraine's RIo 2016 all-around bronze medallist Ganna Rizatdinova with her young son.
I love the way he gets involved, especially from the plank onwards.

The ExCeL Centre, which hosted boxing, fencing, judo, table tennis, taekwondo, weightlifting and wrestling at London 2012, is being transformed into a temporary hospital to deal with COVID-19 cases.
It will have 4,000 beds and be known for now as the NHS Nightingale Hospital.
