In the bizarre world of argentine athletics....

 

Today the newly crowned national champion of the men's 100m sprint with 10.60 is... a member of the rugby sevens national team 

 

To make it worse he's an 18 year old boy and he won the senior national championship lol

Technically an 18 year old is an adult in most countries. I’d be more concerned about the time he won it in myself. You guys are going to be competing with Brunei Darussalam at that pace.

London marathon is about to start, with Eliud Kipchoge and - among others - 'Sir Mo'. Yes, that's what's on his bib. Ugh, ugh and another ugh.

Better than a 35 year old winning the title in 10.60  You know, bright side and everything

Brigid Kosgei wins the women's race in 2:18.20, the 9th fastest time in history.

"Sir Mo" is heading for a European record,

Maybe after that he becomes Lord Mo or Duke Mo or even Prince Mo....

He's slowing down - may not break the record.

Eliud Kipchoge wins the men's race with a sensational performance.

The final 3000m was just cruel to the other leaders.

"Sir Mo" on the bib? Just to make him more likeable than he already is
