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.
