Jonny and Alistair Brownlee are superstar triathletes from Great Britain and were the Gold and Silver Olympic medalists in Rio last month. They competed in a race yesterday in Cozumel, Mexico where heat and humidity played a large factor in the race. Jonny began having trouble with dehydration about 1.5 kilometers left in the race and he began weaving. When big brother Alistair sees him struggling on the path, he takes matters into his own hands.
