Thanks!  I wouldn't say I have "endless resources". I just love watching and following athletics. 

My go-to site is watchathletics: https://www.watchathletics.com/schedule/cat/latest-results/. They usually have links to many athletics meetings/events during the year. Then I also check European Athletics' calender to see which meetings there are the upcoming week: https://www.european-athletics.org/calendar/index.html#date=20190716&view=month&comp=

I often check IAAF's season top lists for new Olympic standards once or twice a day, just to stay a little updated.

Did Nelly Jepkosgei (2008 Olympic silver medalist) switch countries to Bahrain? Or is the diamond league and IAAF incorrect?

 

You'd think there would be more news of such an event

I think you confused Nelly Jepkosgei with Janeth Jepkosgei.

Anita Wlodarczyk has undergone a knee surgery and is done for the season. There goes our safest gold pick for Doha

Apparently Dutch 400m runner (important part of the relay) Madiea Ghafoor has been arrested in Germany a few days ago and is still in a cell there  

 

The whole thing is rather unclear, but rumours have it it has something to do with the smuggle of 2kg cocaine, 6kg amphetamines and 10.000 XTC pills. Not sure if the two things are connected, but that's what the rumours say.
