James Corrigan Hits Olympic 3K Steeplechase Standard In The Nick Of Time

 

https://www.flotrack.org/articles/12694161-james-corrigan-hits-olympic-3k-steeplechase-standard-at-the-buzzer

 

Corrigan finished third in the US trials but only went below the Olympic standard at the Penn Relays on June 29. Just in the nick of time.

Grandma, 58, Gets Third Place at U.S. Olympic Trials for Race Walking

 

A Pennsylvania grandmother placed third at the Olympic trials — in a sport she previously retired from!

 

Michelle Rohl, a distance runner turned racewalker from Wisconsin, previously competed for Team USA in the 1992, 1996 and 2000 Olympic Games, but retired from the sport over two decades ago to homeschool her five kids, The Morning Call reported.

 

Now 58, Rohl, who just welcomed her first grandchild three months ago, returned to the sport by competing in the 20-kilometer race walk in the U.S. Olympic Team Trials on Saturday, June 29.

 

However, because the United States doesn’t have a spot for race walkers in Paris at the 2024 Games, she likely will be unable to compete.

    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
