Lyles is so unbearable with his pre and post race antics...trying to constantly remind you he's the "cool guy" and coming off as an arrogant and let's say not-so-smart weirdo.

A lot of sprinters run on confidence. Might be his way of "staying in the zone". Or he just wants to be the next face of athletics. Who knows.

:USA Provisional Olympic team after Day 3 (23 athletes)

 

On Tuesday, when the US Olympic Trials are taking a break (not sure why), I’ll do a rundown of the events where the US hasn’t qualified a full Olympic team ;)

They always run it over two weekends.   Maybe goes back to the day where athletes regularly doubled up at Olympic events.

One way to solve the :NED v :TTO debate…

FWIW this time hasn't been ratified by World Athletics yet (ie it isn't list on the Road to Paris section or any toplists). There's been some question marks about timing at the African championships

It's difficult to say. A lot of these US runners peak at the Trials especially if they don't have international experience like let's say Felix.

Natalia's time is significantly below theirs too. 

 

All medalists will run under 49s to win a medal in Paris and I don't think any of the American women can (at the moment)

 

Medals should go to 3 of (barring injury) :DOM:POL:IRL:BAR :JAM 

 

I'm also starting to worry about the cheat representing :BRN coming back into "form"

Aha, possibly.  World Athletics were, for the first time, pretty sceptical about last minute miracles in the weeks pre-Tokyo.

    • With a week to go till the deadline for the world invitational,the rosters look beefy for the discus on both sides.24 entries for the men[19 accepted in so far] and 25 for the women[18 accepted so far] For the men so far there are three 70 meter throwers[i count Denny as that since it's just 4 centimeters off his pb]10 from mid 66 to low 69,three of 65 and over,four from almost 64 to almost 65.On the women's side the 18 accepted throwers all have a pb of over 60 meters.11 of them have  pbs over 64 plus.of the ones still not there besides Valerie and Yaime who have been marketed so i can only assume they will join,such names as  Sandra Elkasevic,Bin Feng,and jordine van klinken aren't signed up yet,jordine's probably the most likely of them to join in tough feng would be a cool surprise,i somehow don't see Sandra doing this,but it would be awesome if she did.Stahl and ceh aren't in yet on the men's side,ceh has been marketed while stahl hasn't been mentioned at all,[pretty sure stahl will not be there],Lukas[last name is too wild for me to even try] and lawrence okoye aren't there yet either but i'm betting both will be joining in.
    • What a shame. That would have been amazing.
    • It's complete American domination in the women's discus rankings so far this year,they occupy the top 4 slots,and the WORST result of those four was achieved at Ramona .Third place currently belongs to Ciera Jackson who had a huge almost 4 METER pr at the west coast relays on friday-64.42[previous best was 60.77 from march of 2023,and she opened her season a week ago with at that time her second best result ever of 60.14]she also had a 63.66 throw to back this new pb up,and finally with her new personal best she took down the school record that stood for 36 YEARS[Btw Valerie Allman actually competed in Ramona on march 30th but conditions were apparently far from ideal and she fouled four times and her best was a 63.61,i don't doubt that in the event that she competes in the  world intational,the conditions will be perfect,i wouldn't be so bold as to say she wouldl get the world record but for sure i think she could get a new personal best.
    • So after finding this this morning     I started to search for more news about the date and ticket prices all over the world web !   I found this then       to just notice later that   it was April fools     so yeah, that was my day
