Can morales run twice within two hours?

That strategy worked well for Ireland.

Tyler Floyd (47.25, 8th fastest)

Lauren Gale (51.58, 2nd fastest)

Callum Robinson (45.45, 4th fastest)

Madeleine Price (52.37, 4th fastest)

 

Women’s 4x100m (42.98, for 2nd)

Sade McCreath (11.76, 5th fastest)

Marie-Eloise Leclair (10.53, 4th fastest)

Jerome Blake (9.09, 2nd fastest)
Brendon Rodney (9.53, 2nd fastest)

Zoe Sherar (52.42, 2nd fastest)

Aiyanna Stiverne (51.33, 2nd fastest)
Kyra Constantine (51.59, 3rd fastest)

Alyssa Marsh (51.83, 5th fastest)

 

Men’s 4x400m

Jalon White (46.78, 5th fastest, thought he had a worse leg for some reason)

Marco Arop (45.97, 4th fastest)

Christopher Morales-Williams (44.60, 1st fastest)

Myles Misner-Daley (47.67, 7th fastest, but he slowed down after it was looking unlikely that Canada would grab a quota)

 

Also, slightly unrelated, but the men’s 4x100m relay said they were only trying to qualify for Paris and save themselves for the final so I’m not too worried.

That stings 

[Surlympics 1,197]

If they knew this why would MMD pull up yesterday 

[Surlympics 1,197]

But looking at the times from Canadas heat yesterday MMD would have needed a 43.90 to finish ahead of Germany . So very unlikely 

[Josh 11,528]

Right now the best possible men’s 4x400m lineup is Arop, Misner-Daley, Robinson, White IMO. 

 

And for mixed, I would switch Floyd with Arop. Double is tough, but doable. 

[james89 898]

Apparently Michael Roth is in for Floyd but the rest of the lineup is the same for the mixed relay. I would have not made that specific change and relied on someone to do the double.
