Last globally broadcast big meet of the season is the Boris Hanžeković Memorial from Zagreb on Sunday.  Then after that we are into road racing, marathons & cross-country until late January.

Insane ending at the Talence Decastar heptathlon :yikes: 

 

Dutch Emma Oosterwegel has 9 points to defend on Austrian Ivona Dadic in the 800m. Dadic attacks in the last lap and gets a gap of 1-2 seconds, which is enough. Oosterwegel pulls absolutely everything out of it though, and closes the gap back to a little under 0,7 seconds.....the result?

"Should athletes end the competition tied on points, then the athlete with the most points in the majority of the events wins. If the tie remains, the athlete with the most points in any one of the events is awarded the win."

 

Or have they changed this rule and not updated the webpage?

Eliud Kipchoge has gone off very, very strong in Berlin: 28:23 for the first 10k, whereas he posted 29:01 in his world record run in 2018.
