Two good FTA events this weekend, both on the European Athletics YT channel.

 

  1. Night of the 10,000m PBs from London on Saturday. Whole lot of races, top of the bill races start at 20:00 UK.
  2.  

 

 

Enjoying the early stages of this.  How is it that all amateur club athletes know that if you are being lapped, it’s your responsibilityto run into an outside lane & get out of the better runners’ way?  :clap: 
 

Yet hardly any elite professional Olympic athletes ever bloody well do it?  :stop::redcard:

News of the new mixed relay in walking.

The 22 best teams of the Antalya 2024 World Team Championships (April 20-21) qualify for Paris 2024

There will be no disqualifications for red cards but there will be time penalties for infringements.

World Athletics have invented a totally new sport called running...

So 11 NOCs with 2 teams :p

At least only 5 NOCs can qualify two teams.

"Qualification pathway
- The Marathon Race Walk Mixed Relay will replace the 35km at the 2024 World Athletics Race Walking Team Championships in Antalya and the top 22 finishing teams in Antalya will qualify automatically for Paris.
- Up to five of the 22 teams can be a second team from the same country.
- Three additional teams (which cannot be from a country already qualified from Antalya) will qualify through the Marathon Race Walk Mixed Relay top performance lists during the qualification period (31 December 2022 to 30 June 2024)".

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
