Werloc 3,127 Posted July 16, 2022 #201 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Good day! If anybody is looking for some European time zone friendly athletics action, then look no further than this. Today and tomorrow in Vilnius we're having our annual Baltic U18 & U20 championships, where Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia have to put forward two athletes into every competition and the points are tallied for every event. The broadcast is not in English, but often I just watch and have music playing in the background For quite a few athletes, this is the final competition in preparation for the World U20 championships and for others, a start before the European Youth olympic festival. Starts in less than 30 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werloc 3,127 Posted July 30, 2022 #202 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Yesterday and today, the President's cup was held where Lithuanian, Latvian and Estonian athletes have to send forward 2 athletes in every discipline to collect points and Lithuania managed to beat Estonia by two points this year. There were quite a few that missed the event in preparation for the European Championships, but there were still some decent news. The President's cup is awarded to the best male and female performer, both went to Lithuania, Gediminas Truskauskas with 20.65 in 200m and Dovilė Kilty with 14.14 in Triple Jump and she hasn't jumped this far since 2020, looking positive with ECH soon.

Grassmarket 2,745 Posted August 8, 2022 #210 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Strange behaviour from superstar Sydney McLaughlin. She will run in Budapest tonight, but not Monaco on Wednesday. And that will be the end of her season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
