Two extra shots and still Murray and Kwaou-Mathey kept on running for two more hurdles

"Fair play to the officials, they have certainly shown discretion", talking about the false starts not resulting in DQ's.

 

I mean, personally I find it great, because I absolutely hate the rule where one false start is an immediate DQ, but...isn't a false start supposed to be a DQ? It either is or isn't a false start

Was a bit ambiguous. He lost pressure on the block but didn’t actually cross the start line.

Incidentally, here are your live results. Think you need a user ID.

 Guy had to put in a bit of a sprint so he could whack the padding.

Well yeah, definitely, although I think they should have DQ'ed both  (which would suck because like I said, I hate that rule, but still..)

For the running events this is fine enough though, don't need to log in:

For the field events, you'll need the login indeed.
