So, this time swimming is going to be held in another place rather than athletics

Or they’ve hopped back on the European Games train.

I don't know if anyone other than the event organisers are still conceiving of this as a genuine multi-sports event, rather than a whole lot of different Championships that just happen to take place in the same city at the same time.  In case anyone is, I've made up a brief spreadsheet showing the times of all the main events, and have incorporated my world-wide time calculator option. I started off to do a much more detailed one, but soon realised that only people imprisoned in dungeons for many years would be interested in that level of detail.  It might be useful to people who are equally fans of table tennis and canoe sprint who can't decide what to watch.

Schedule for day one of the European championships next week:

Does that mean the women's all-around final will be part of the team qualification or how should I read this? It kind of comes across as if the all-around is sort of snuck into something else. Same for the men later in the week.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Apparently on the forum it's seen as one big multisport event, wihch might be making things rather difficult...

 

Instead of at least being able to read and post in for example the athletics thread (for which it's simply the European Championships) even if I haven't seen any other sports yet, I'll have to avoid the whole event in terms of Totallympics and refrain from reading anything here :p 

 

@Sindo Surely before the event starts we'll get separate threads for the separate sports? As in, an 'Athletics European Championships' thread, a 'Track Cycling European Championships' thread and such? It'd be nearly impossible to follow stuff otherwise unless you really have the whole day to spend on it (like, no work or such).

I guess we will have Athletics at the European Championships thread. :p

I don't think we need a thread for each sport. We already have the one about Athletics, maybe we can have as you said Artistic Gymnastics and Track Cycling, but other sports can be discussed on here.

In the Commonwealths this week the Team competition was incorporated into Qualifications & the team score was derived from best-four-out-of-five performances in the Qualifiers. The All-Arounds were then held on a separate day as a completely blank slate competition, using the top 18 qualifiers.  In the Europeans the All-Arounds will be the derived score, and the Team Event will then be the separate events.  

 

Why the difference? I guess at this stage in the Paris 2024 cycle establishing national rankings is more important than individual ones.

    • Only WCh 2016 was worse than this one. I saw some great bouts but overall, this Ch was unnecessary.
    • There might be modern tracks for lots of sports in Ashgabat actually. They organised some Asian martial arts competition some time ago and for that they built all sort of megalomaniac infrastructures (you see the picture of the gigantic horse head? That’s part of the main stadium), all in white (there’s some rule from the president that everything needs to be white in that city), and all pretty much abandoned since that time.   According to the delusional/brainwashed local people we met, “all those investments are understandable because Ashgabat will organize the Olympic very soon”.    That’s because the dictator is obsessed with huge buildings, if you see my third last photo, that is actually an indoor ferry wheel (yes, it’s a thing apparently), the largest one in the world (Guiness world record), and it looked really abandoned. Me and my wife were the only ones going on it.   Everything in that country (but especially in Ashgabat) is bizarre.
    • Baku is a large resort. There is a modern track in cycling in Ashgabat. The World Championships were supposed to be held some years ago.
    • There are some government allowed routes that go to the West, but the usual one is just around the two main cities (Ashgabat and Mary) and then crossing the desert to that gas fire crater.   thats what I did, entered from the east from Bukhara (Uzbekistan) and left again to Uzbekistan but in the Khiva border.   Not sure how’s the caspian sea there, but the only time I saw it , in Azerbaijan, didn’t look very clean to swim.
    • ...and this is how I learned Costco sells poutine in Canada    Is it a food court item there, or something you buy and prepare at home?
    • I don't see any photos from the Caspian Sea? I wonder if there are swimming conditions there?
    • Some other fast swims today include a new commonwealth record by Duncan Scott in the 400m free and a European record in the 100m IM by Marchand. Watch out for some quick swims in the 200m free and 200m IM later on. 
    • Last stop on this TISC Central Asia tour: Turkmenistan    One of the most closed and censored lands in the world, Turkmenistan is a place with incredible things to visit, with a beautiful desert landscape, historical ruins from ancient civilisations, and the unique "Door to Hell".   But it is also a country where everything is controlled and restricted (we had no access to social networks and tons of blocked websites, can only enter with invitation letter, with a predefined tour and accompanied by a guide at all times), with giant megalomaniac buildings created in order to maintain a cult of the leader and its regime. It basically felt like what i imagine is North Korea (but without the hate for americans).   It is eccentric, it is impressive, but above all, it is bizarre. Here is a patriotic catchy song i heard when was traveling there. .      Mähri Pirgulyýewa – Halkyň arkadagly zamanasy
