At least one big-name meet this weekend - the Kip Keino Classic from Nairobi.  Here’s the Preview.

Also, it is the NCAA Regional Final weekend, so very high standards, likely WLs in lots of events esp relays.  Most prestigious meets spread across various pay services, but some free.

Two of the good NCAA Division 1 meets this weekend are FTA (although the red-hot sprint ones aren’t)

 

Mountain West (Colorado, Nevada, unfashionable bits of California etc) has its own app on Amazon, Roku, Apple etc
 

PAC-12 - ie LA, Bay Area, Oregon, so very good field & distance - has a 12 hour rolling YT stream - just rewind to get to the bit you want.

Issam Asinga :ZAM:SUR:USA 9.83 (2.6m/s) 100m at the Pure Athletics Spring Invitational:hyper::bowdown: Young rising star to keep an eye out for on the road to Paris 2024.

 

Issam has not yet decided which country he will be competing for internationally, with his options being United States, Suriname and Zambia. His dad, Tommy Asinga, holds the national record for Suriname over 400m, 800m and 1500m. 
 

Here’s a link to the race https://twitter.com/travismillerx13/status/1650295676620750852?s=46&t=Ttq53JR4XTfuqqmYe6kI9w

 

He has opted for……:SUR, so that’s potentially going to be many firsts. His mother :ZAM Ngozi Mwanamwambwa* was also an Olympian.

 

* OK, I admit it - copy & paste.  :shame:

Reynuld Cheruyiot baffles the world’s press by doing his post-race interview in :KEN Swahili.*

 

*Or possibly an even more obscure language than that.

    • Ooooooh the group of Canada , they play in Toronto then Vancouver ...look at the distance   
    • now the shooting sport takes a little Christmas break and the new season resumes in January with the Asian Championships for the Shotgun specialists ( Doha, Jan. 11th through 22nd)   the World Cup will be back in late March, beginning in  Tangiers (March 25th through April 3rd, Shotgun specialists only)   the Rifle and Pistol specialists will start their new season with the European 10m Championships in  Yerevan (Feb. 27th through March 5th) and the 1st World Cup stage for them will be in  Granada in April (5th through 13th)   300m, 25m and 50m European Champs will be in  Osijek (May 30th through June 21st), meanwhile the Shotgun European Champs will be held in  Athens from Sept. 27th through Oct. 13th
    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
