World Mountain Running Championships from Stubai  this week. Bit of a strange event in that most of these guys are real specialists unknown to the general public, but there’s a bit of crossover to several other sports.  YT has 6 different language streams.

Day 3 at the NCAA Outdoor Championships

 

Unfavorable weather conditions prevented many great times, but did offer spectacular competition.

 

Courtney Lindsey (Texas Tech) steals the show in the 100m. Commentators did not even mention his name pre-race.

 

Emmanuel Badimele (Florida) swipes individual 400m championship from teammate Ryan Willie in 44.24.

 

Ky Robinson (Stanford) became a double-champion winning the 10,000m on Wednesday and 5,000m Friday.

 

Florida wins the team championship with a Collegiate record in the 4x400m (2:57.74).

Martynas Alekna goes HUGE in Latvia,first going out to 65.35,before finishing off the series with 67.23,battering his less than an old week pb by over three meters.comp still needs to be confirmed to be a valid one,and that would mean a ticket for him to his first world champs,and three Lithuanian discus throwers at the event . 

Disappointment for Mykolas though, can only manage 207ft 6in  for third place in the NCAAs.

Quick question regarding Budapest. Are the entry lists that are up on Road To Budapest for the marathon and 35k race walk the final ones or can athletes/countries who have originally rejected the quota still accept it?

Ernest John Obiena  clears 6.00 meters in Bergen, Norway. Pending ratification, this is the new Asian record in the pole vault.
