The LaCrosse Tribune has a great story up about the modern pentathlon with tons of interesting tidbits, including this one:
For the first time in modern pentathlon history, two sisters will compete in the same Games.
It will be a third successive Olympics for 24-year-old American Margaux Isaksen, who was fourth in London, just two seconds away from a medal, and a first for younger sister Isabella, 22.
“To be able to compete together with your sister, there is nothing more special,” Margaux said. “I think this could be the most special Olympics just in that respect.”
