:GRE Polyniki Emmanouilidou (19 yo) ran 100m in 11.21 today :hyper:

 

Fastest 100m by a Greek woman since 2005! Her improvement each year has been very impressive (11.94 in 2019, 11.71 in 2020, 11.55 in 2021, 11.44 in 2022, now 11.21 in 2023 and it's only June). I think as long as she stays injury-free we will see her in Paris, and I think we also have a good chance to make it in the 4x100 relay.

And now she got 22.94 in 200m, which is a new U23 NR (the previous one was a tie between her and Maria Belibasaki, who both had 23.18!) :yes

 

Of course her improvement each year in 200m has also been very impressive:

2019-24.64

2020-24.25

2021-23.77

2022-23.20

2023-22.94

Kristjan Čeh threw 71,86 m in discus today in Estonia (Heino Lipp Memorial), which is the furthest anyone has thrown in the last 15 years! It's apparently the 4th longest throw ever made!

Daniel Stahl :SWE threw 71.45m also.

Together with Ståhl yes. Ståhl’s PB and NR is also 71,86. It’s from

2019.

I've talked about 18-yo talent Niels Laros before. He's having an absolutely stellar season once again in 800m, 1500m and 5000m!

 

Yesterday he equaled the 1500m Dutch senior NR of 3:32.89. He equaled a 22 year old national record at 18 years old:yikes:

Indian interstate meet ...... Sreeshanker has a massive leap of 8.41 in long jump which takes him to position 2 on world leading times this season .... position 1 is also held by an Indian Jeswin Aldrin with 8.42 ...A rare sight to see in world athletics 2 positions held by Indians 

 

The Neeraj Chopra effect on Indian atheletics has been great he has ....we have great world season positions  right now in 3 events .... Triple 4th with Praveen chitravel , Long jump 1 and 2 , and in javelin 2 ( Neeraj)  and 9 ( manu) ...

strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi

    • 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.
