What? Oh what a disaster

 

Points will be determined on a time trial basis, so you don't know yet.

I feel like Slovakia is getting a bunch of positive surprises, yet still everyone expects them to finish last.

Well she lost a heap of time with that so that's unfortunate. Another nail in our coffin

Our junior heptathlete Kate O'Connor, doing the job for the team in women's javelin and picking up a few points

our javelin thrower will not finish last. Now this is a surprise

No PBs or SBs for the Dutch runners, but most performed well with top 3 finishes. Happy for Van Hunenstein winning in the absence of Schippers!

Irish women's relay improve unexpectedly as Netherlands and Norway both fail to finish!

 

Or in fact the Norwegians do manage to finish, but might get DQFed because there a rules governing a dropped baton.

Damn. being DSQ in the women's 4x100m relay might make this Championships much more intense then needed for the Dutch.
