Not sure the DL will be decimated, but isn't there the Michael Johnson thing with track events only, in yet another blow to field events?

Oh totally, I’m just not sure why they would call it “the breakaway” when the actual name is nowhere close to it. Then again given some of the stuff they share on here, I’m not really that surprised.

I assume because it kinda feels like it's marketed as a breakaway event, an alternative for the Diamond League. Anyhow, we'll see how it goes :p

Jakob Ingebritsen's Half Marathon debut in Copenhagen was not really an roaring success.  I'm sure he'll put a bit more planning into it next time.  He set a :NOR 10k road record on the way, but seems to have turned down the thermometer after that.

Road Running and Marathons for the next few weeks, but we also have the Third Edition of the European U-20 Club DNA shootout from Portugal this weekend.  The Format is 12 teams from different European Countries, two quick (circa 150 mins for a range of events) Cup Matches of 6 teams each on Saturday, then a B Final and A Final on Sunday.  All live on YT.

Does anyone have some more info on the Athlos thing in New York in two days? The official website lacks most basic information, like even a timetable.

Info is at that link now.  It's really more of a promo than a meet.  But it's on YT anyway.

Not typical a sport news, but worth to mention. Konrad Bukowiecki and Natalia Kaczmarek did married today. From now officialy Natalia will change her surname to Bukowiecka, she will not follow her team mates and will not have double surname :p

      Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.

      Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.

      Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig

      2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.

      Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.

      Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
