Susan Randall from US, PB 4:54 is now listed in the entrys in women's 50km. ¿Why? She clearly didn't reach the mark. I mean Spain has a women in 4:47, why can't we send her?

Apparently she is area champion for North America

Yep, with help from a Belgian-US lawyer (the one who travelled from the US to London earlier to lobby with all IAAF Council members to try and keep the 50k on the schedules) :p

 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

I thought it was the IAAF having some criteria and accepting more women to enlarge the field... poor peruvian women who came second in that race being left out.

Well yeah, but area champions apparently are qualified, so that's the way it is.

6th in European champs a year later (but nowhere near the time he had in the 2013 final), then in 2015 he had exactly zero serious results (5 races, 4 of them really slow, 1 DNF), and after that DNF in June 2015 all I can find about him in terms of results is an indoor 500m (not impressive) in January of this year, so literally nothing last year.

 

Now I'm curious as well about the reasons for all that :p
