IAAF Athletics channel is not going to cover the 50 km walk races: "Thanks for being with us. We'll come back tomorrow". Are the commentators from Svalbard or Jan Mayen that they can't stand 30C night temperature? 

 

no, they're just men of a certain age...and so they have to go to sleep early...

man! the race is going to end at about 3.30 a.m. local time...

Please speak for yourself! Why are people on here so desperate?

VPN Czech ČT Sport, they will cover the whole races from 22:35, or Slovak TV but they will start the transmission at 22:55

I mean, is no one else frankly disgusted that athletes are forced to race in the middle of the night? That is quite awful for spectators too obviously.

 

I just can't believe that an Olympic sports federation could EVER put their athletes in such position...

Welcome to the new oh-so politically correct world. People get offended by anything! Don't you love this shit?
