It almost looks like he's encouraging the other athletes.... The good news it looks like he maybe could go even faster

Not what I’m seeing, but I totally agree with you that it looked like he was easing up at the end. Valuable points towards Olympic qualification up for grabs though, that’s an opportunity missed for him.

Next few meets for Ethan Katzberg have been announced (not officially, but through my research. 
 

On May 18, he’s entered in the men’s hammer throw competition at the Orlen Janusz Kusocinski Memorial, and on May 25, at the Hallesche Werfertage.

 

Other notable events are Gotzis on May 18/19, where we’ll see Damian Warner and Pierce LePage in the decathlon, and the Atlantic City Games on May 18, as Mariam Abdul-Rashid will compete in the women’s 100m hurdles (entry lists aren’t officially out yet so there could be more Canadians in action)

On May 15, at the Meeting Savona, Jerome Blake is entered in the men’s 100m. On May 18, at the LA Grand Prix, Mo Ahmed in the men’s 5000m, and the long awaited return to competition for Alysha Newman in women’s pole vault, after suffering an injury late in the indoor season. On May 19, the Rabat Diamond League, where we’ll be seeing Sarah Mitton in women’s shot put, and Andre DeGrasse in the men’s 100m. 
 

Might be some names that are missing, full entry lists aren’t out yet for a lot of events.

Nope, that was a mistake by me, I was looking at a Twitter list and they didn’t have LePage on it. The official Instagram for the event has confirmed that he’s entered on one of their posts. 

Lepage has now withdrawn from Gotzis

CANADIAN RECORD ALERT!!
 

Celi McCabe goes 9:20.58 at the LA Grand Prix in the women’s 3000m steeplechase, smashing the previous mark of 9:22.40 by Lalonde in 2021! Of course, it goes without saying that it’s an Olympic qualifying time.

Other notable results in the race include Regan Yee registering a DNF (hopefully not an injury), while Grace Fetherstonhaugh recorded a new SB of 9:39.62.

      I think you're doom spiraling too hard after just a few races...   Giacomel is very strong and I think that he might definitely land on a podium this season. The Italian women's team has a lot of very talented juniors that just need some time to grow. Dorothea Wierer also took her time to grow into her best form, so why is it not possible to give some time to the other talented athletes? Not everyone is bound to crush it at 21-23 y. o.

      Of course they could make lineal world records, but they don't want that, because those records would never be beaten. And it's way more marketable, flashy etc. when you have "modern" WR and they happen regularly. Athletics have started mastering this in their course of upgrading the old WRs with "exciting new stars".   There is absolutely no reason, when your current weight is up to 89 kg for example, and the previous WR has been set in the old weight at 85-86-87 etc. that it's not automatically taken. It has been set under the current limit, there is no difference if the person weighted 85 or 88.5 kg it's within the range.. Now if the old category was over 89, then there would be an advantage, so those WR shouldn't be taken.    The best way is, like you mentioned, to use the bodyweight of everyone, but that is an impossible ask for any weightlifting governing body. I'm not even sure how they are able to run a normal excel..

Olympic sports Canoeing, Field Hockey, Golf, Modern Pentathlon, Shooting, Sport Climbing, Tennis, and Weightlifting will not be involved in any matter while the non-Olympic sport of Karate was also dropped. Baseball/Softball, Dancesport, and Wushu are non-Olympic sports which will get to participate in some capacity.   22/31 Olympic sports will be present (surfing has yet to be involved at a Youth Olympics).   I know we can't (or should) emulate the Olympic program, but hosts should try to include as many sports as possible, especially the relatively cheaper ones like shooting, sport climbing and weightlifting. The good thing is that it looks like the mixed NOCs events are gone (I think they mentioned this earlier).

      schedule of events is always the same, you can look at the previous round and see how normally things go   no finals on Friday (qualifications of all events only), medal sessions are always only on Saturday and Sunday (alternating men and women's distances on the 2 days, mixed relay normally ends on Sunday)

      There are both positives and negatives in this situation. The negative is that we are once again changing the weights and erasing records in an attempt to forget the past and "start all over". Nothing speaks more about the integrity of a sport, when it changes it's system every 5 years.   On the positive is that they are actually reducing the number of weights and not keeping the absurd 10. And i know, that for a long time in the past they were always 10, but i think 8 is the perfect balance.   If only wrestling could reduce them to 8 as well.. Boxing could have 10, but that would still be a plus from their current 13-15, or whatever number they have.
