Has the mile been added as an event?

No... It's still only the 1500m. However, times set on the mile can be used as qualifying time to the 1500m.

Also our Marathon runner Tibor Sahajda (one of our 6 athletes qualified for Doha) decided to skip the WCh, the reason being obvious, the qualification for Tokyo. the next day is scheduled the traditional Košice International peace marathon. which is classified as SVK national Marathon championship and this can obviously bring him a lot of extremely valuable Olympic Ranking points, since the National Champs are the most counted for this ranking, clearly much much more than the amount he would gain in Doha difficult unusual night conditions.

 

I expect many athletes skipping this by similar reasons though.

Apparently Storl will miss the world championship after an injury :(

Yeah, he has finished his season. After a back injury in spring he simply isn't in good enough shape to participate and will focus on Tokyo.

  • 2 weeks later...

Ján Volko sadly did not qualify for the WCh. :( Today was his last chance at the :SVK National League finals, 10.57 in 100m and 20.70 in 200m in very hot weather means he is officially out of contention for the world championships.

 

So we qualified only 6 athletes to Dauha, but only 5 will compete since the marathon runner Tibor Sahajda announced already that he will not travel to qatar but instead of this he will run the Košice marathon (SVK national championship) with bigger chance to collect valuable points for the Olympic ranking.

 

the 5 athletes for Dauha are if nothing else will happen Marcel Lomnický in Hammer M, Martina Hrašnová in Hammer W, Gabriela Gajanová in 800m W, Matej Tóth in 50km RW M and Mária Czáková in 50km WR W.

Television rights? Is Eurosport bailing out of this just like swimming? I'm really getting worried now...

This is like the 50th time today I try to find something on Wikipedia and realize Wikipedia is still down :mad: 

 

They've been showing a lot of athletics, surely they're not dropping the world champs..?!

According to this site, Eurosport will broadcast it in every European nation. Or that is what I think "Pan Europe" means?

    • So I was watching a replay of China-Germany in between Canada’s game against Sweden and this one against Italy and… it seems like China cheated during it which could’ve been critical in them winning the match?    During the 1st end, Xu with his last rock had an easy hit for the single against three German stones. One of the sweepers for China (I can’t tell which one, this team is quite new to me) “accidentally” kicked their own stone, which redirected one of their own stones into the rings, and Germany only got the steal of 2. HIS FUCKING FOOT IS TOUCHING THE ROCK   Now after, Team Xu was claiming that the stone was picked (it was not) and Muskatewitz was arguing that it couldn’t possibly have been picked. China wouldn’t admit it, and they ended up winning the game 10-9. BOO.    Hope these cheaters don’t qualify for the Olympics. 
    • Edin usually has mediocre seasons though (that being said this has been worse than usual), then really starts to show up for Worlds. He’s only won 4 GSOC events in his career.     They’re at a 4-2 record at the moment, so seems to be the case again. Plus, they played really well in their loss to Canada. 
    • I'm in tears, finally I have access after months. For some reason I can only enter the site from my phone. Surely it must be a problem with my home internet connection. 
    • With a week to go till the deadline for the world invitational,the rosters look beefy for the discus on both sides.24 entries for the men[19 accepted in so far] and 25 for the women[18 accepted so far] For the men so far there are three 70 meter throwers[i count Denny as that since it's just 4 centimeters off his pb]10 from mid 66 to low 69,three of 65 and over,four from almost 64 to almost 65.On the women's side the 18 accepted throwers all have a pb of over 60 meters.11 of them have  pbs over 64 plus.of the ones still not there besides Valerie and Yaime who have been marketed so i can only assume they will join,such names as  Sandra Elkasevic,Bin Feng,and jordine van klinken aren't signed up yet,jordine's probably the most likely of them to join in tough feng would be a cool surprise,i somehow don't see Sandra doing this,but it would be awesome if she did.Stahl and ceh aren't in yet on the men's side,ceh has been marketed while stahl hasn't been mentioned at all,[pretty sure stahl will not be there],Lukas[last name is too wild for me to even try] and lawrence okoye aren't there yet either but i'm betting both will be joining in.
    • What a shame. That would have been amazing.
    • It's complete American domination in the women's discus rankings so far this year,they occupy the top 4 slots,and the WORST result of those four was achieved at Ramona .Third place currently belongs to Ciera Jackson who had a huge almost 4 METER pr at the west coast relays on friday-64.42[previous best was 60.77 from march of 2023,and she opened her season a week ago with at that time her second best result ever of 60.14]she also had a 63.66 throw to back this new pb up,and finally with her new personal best she took down the school record that stood for 36 YEARS[Btw Valerie Allman actually competed in Ramona on march 30th but conditions were apparently far from ideal and she fouled four times and her best was a 63.61,i don't doubt that in the event that she competes in the  world intational,the conditions will be perfect,i wouldn't be so bold as to say she wouldl get the world record but for sure i think she could get a new personal best.
    • So after finding this this morning     I started to search for more news about the date and ticket prices all over the world web !   I found this then       to just notice later that   it was April fools     so yeah, that was my day
