:ITA athletes in good shape, it looks...

 

in :POL Lodz, Zeynab Dosso was second only to local hero Ewa Svoboda by 1/100 in the women's 60m, but she destroyed twice the National Record, clocking 7.09 in the prelims and then 7.05 in the final (the previous record, she was sharing with Manuela Levorato, was 7.14) :yikes:

 

Lorenzo Simonelli, instead, is the official new world leader* in the m en's 60m Hurdles after he won the race in Poland with 7.50 (new NR, also)

 

*in the NCAA season, a guy named Trey Cunningham already ran 7.47, but his result has not been recorded by WA yet (and maybe it will never be, who knows?)

 

world silver medallist Leonardo Fabbri, finally, made his debut in the indoor season and won the men's Shot Put in 21m26

 

in :ITA Padua, in the meantime, Pietro Arese improved the NR over the men's 1500m, running in 3.37.03, not a truly impressive time, but I think it's still worth to be mentioned

 

last but not least, Larissa Iapichino completed her 1st LJ competition of the winter in :ESP Sabadell...she won, but couldn't go further than 6m62 :mumble:

the Cuban, however, lives and trains (and runs for local clubs) in :ITA since 2022...going for some cheap shopping? :mumble: :fingers:

Highlighting Two male Italian discus throwers today.

 

First Off-Enrico Saccomano who started his season of with 59.87,the reasons i think he's worth mentioning Is because he's just 22[going to turn 23 on February 12.],He has never thrown the 2kg discus so far in his first contest of a season,and it's his fifth best result ever with his Pb being 60.99,from the 2022 season in the Summer,not predicting he's gonna do anything crazy this year but already seemingly not that far off his pb at the very start of the season looks like a good sign.

 

 

And the main one is- Alessio Mannuci Who threw his new PB of 64.19 in that same season opener two days ago[he will turn 26 in early July].Previous Pb was 63.61 from mid July of last year,7 off his current 10 best Marks came from 2023.Obviously it's huge to get a pb in the first comp of the year,He's 10th on the all time Italian Men's discus list,but of the ones still competing,Absolutely looks like the number one right now.Takes second place on the discus world list for this year behind Connor Bell at the moment,I know the Germans will be having their winter championships near the end of February,Ceh will Probably compete in His Winter throwing champs which will be on the 17th,But I think Alessio is likely going to stay in the top 10 for at least February and is worth keeping an eye on to see how he progresses through the season.

    • I would expect a competitive game that could go both ways.    Nicaragua will be riding the momentum from their 2-0 start to qualification and their pitching has been great so far.   Taiwan should be the favorite but for some reason, they decided to not select a bunch of players that were on the team that won the Premier 12 tournament and opted for younger players. However, the home crowd will be a huge advantage for them still.
    • Yeah, not looking good for  despite the win today.
    • Unfortunately Wierer has been sick all the time since last year. She misses an average of 2-3 weeks per season due to illness. I don't know if this can be solved in any way during the Olympic season? Immunity medications, isolation from other people during the season?   I don't know what will happen with Vittozzi. However, the completly miss of starts throughout the all season will be a problem for her. Especially since a lot of younger rivals have appeared since last year.
