Oh well. Hoped for the mixed team.

The mens 4x400 do not belong at the Olympics. Only CMW does in the 400 but thats it

New SB of 3:03.29 for the men’s 4x400m relay.

The substitution rule is stupid anyway imo.

 

World Aquatic gets it right here, sub zero, one, two, three or four athletes.

I agree, but if it's a rule, it's a rule for everyone. We don't know what other teams would have done if the rule didn't exist. It's not about making an exception for one, it's about how unfair it is to the others.

 

Can you tell I'm a teacher?

If CMW ran the same time, Canada would have qualified, oh vey. Now they won't even qualify.

On the plus side, Ayorinde had a great run. Misner-Daley had another stinker, Arop wasn’t great either. 
 

Robinson, Arop, Morales-Williams, Ayorinde squad for an upcoming event for relay qualification I’m assuming. 
 

Never mind, no chance.

Mixed was a disappointment, but W 4x100 qualifying on first try was a nice surprise.

Ayorinde was worse than the other two. 

There is 0 chance of qualification. They need a 3-4 second PB and have the athletes all in the same place. You can already tell CMW is going to be 'difficult' so its not happening
