Olympic 2016 Results: Tracking Thursday's Medal Count for Each Country

Medals continued to stack up for Team USA and other nations from around the world on Thursday at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

In the 400-meter hurdles, American Kerron Clement edged out Boniface Mucheru of Kenya and Yasmani Copello of Turkey for the gold.

The men's triathlon saw a pair of brothers from Great Britain, Alistair and Jonny Brownlee, take gold and silver ahead of South Africa's Henri Schoeman.

To stay up to speed with those and all the other events that wrapped on Thursday morning in Rio, see the live-updating medal count below:

Clement did it again in the final to claim the first gold on the track in Rio for Team USA's men:

Brotherly Run

It's hard to fathom two brothers being the best in the world at a single Olympic event, but that's exactly what the Brownlees are after Thursday's action.

Alistair secured the gold with a time of 1:45:01, with brother Jonny finishing six seconds later. Schoeman crossed the line 36 seconds after that.

This result has been a long time coming, as the brothers have been running together since childhood. The Brownlee Foundation shared a photo of the two in their formative years:

The Olympic News Service shared a number of quotes from the pair:

In the women's 100-meter hurdles, Brianna Rollins won the gold, Nia Ali won the silver and Kristi Castlin secured the bronze, giving Team USA the podium sweep in the event.
