Disaster for Amit :IND Was with the leading pack of 3 and made his move, was so fast in that last 500m that had 2 loss of contact and DSQ 100m from finish line. Would have medalled at least if not for that error. 

 

:OMA Being a great host of world team race walking  championships nonetheless

You know that Lithuanian race walking is fucked when there are 5 teams in the Women's Team Championships, no Russia, Portugal, Italy or Spain, but we're still not medaling. :p 

 

Why did Živilė Vaiciukevičiūtė have to retire so early :(

Christina Papadopoulou speaks English so well :yikes:. I know she lived in Australia for a few years but she speaks with almost an Australian accent. Well, she didn't make our Tokyo 2020 team because she was 4th for Greece and we could only send three girls, but we are lucky that Australia also qualified three so they didn't need to try and 'steal 'her from us or anything :p

 

Now we need a second male race walker who is good enough, this way we can qualify the mixed 35km team for Paris, so we'll be able to send the maximum amount of 5 female race walkers to the Olympics. Drisbioti said she wants to go to Paris, and she'll be 40 then. Tsinopoulou will be 33 and said she also wants to go to Los Angeles at age 37. Filtisakou, Papadopoulou, Fiaska, Kourkoutsaki, Antonopoulou, Alikanioti, Bochori, Seferiadi etc. are all much younger.

      The full schedule in shorttrack always appears very late, like the day/evening before the first day. So tomorrow evening, you should see it here: https://www.shorttrack.swisstiming.com/?evt=11213100000127

      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.
