It just adds nothing to the already existing relays. Why not have a relay for over 40s or something truly different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not have a relay for over 40s or something truly different? It is politIcal correctness from the IOC. All of a sudden there must be mixed team events in all sports. Some work well, others are just boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
