Alastair Chalmers is 2nd overall in 400m hurdles at the Florida relays in a time of 49.54. That's a decent season opener and is just 5 hundreths of a second slower than his best time from last year. 

 

The qualifying standard for Paris is 48.70 seconds so he still has a way to go - UK Athletics will not be accepting any world ranking invites for this event.

I wonder what the chances he become a Guy Leamouth and goes to the press when they reject a world ranking.

Innes Fitzgerald has rejected the offer of place on the World Champs squad, opting instead to focus on her A-Level studies. 

So having said she wasn't going to compete at the World Champs because she didn't want to fly and taking the train would take too long to get there, Fitzgerald does a U-turn, flies out to Serbia and finishes 17th.

1:27.05 being better than the world record, but because its a mixed international team, will not be credited as such. Alfred, Adeleke and Dina all clearly on scorching early season form...

Asher Smith looked pretty good in the video of the 4x400 - seemed to have plenty of strength and pace going into the final straight.

    • What I'm surprised at here is that the sunrise and sunset both change by 27/28 minutes over those two weeks, providing almost an hour more of sunlight from the beginning of the Games to the end. I didn't realize it changed that fast. Growing up in Canada, I always felt like one day in late October we suddenly got 4 hours less sunlight, and one day in early April we suddenly got 4 hours more.

    • He's a businessman and the world simply doesn't remember what the world looks like when USA adopts isolationism. Trump will get involved if only he can make a profit. And his #1 geopolitical enemy is China. Not Russia, North Korea or Iran but China. Modern society especially in Europe simply doesn't understand that becuse nobody is old enough to remember the Monroe Doctrine which predates fascism by a full century. I don't think even in USA they call James Monroe a fascist
    • Fans of FC Heidenheim making a lot of noise outside my front window just now.  
    • Vast majority of Americans will disagree with you. That's all that counts. I dont see many differences in so called fascism between democrats and republicans. Both were bombing any country they picked, both were ruining systems they wanted to.  I prefer reds more because they are at least honest about it. Also, i dont like what this ultraliberalism brought to our whole Earth. Whoever opposes this level of insanity will have my vote.  
    • YEC Semi-Finals are set:   Aryna Sabalenka vs Cori Gauff Barbora Krejcikova vs Zheng Qinwen   Krecikova beating Gauff in two sets means Iga Świątek was eliminated with 2-1 record. Sabalenka clinched Year-End #1 after winning the first two matches and Świątek not winning all three RR matches before already.
    • He is fascist. Even use the same narration like famous german/Austrian painter.

    • I remember a couple of years during the athletics worlds in Oregon one of the British athletes wasn’t able to enter the US due to visa issues. I feel like something similar will happen in LA, and I don’t envisage Trump succumbing to an appeal to let an unfortunate athlete in.
    • thats true. If anyone observes the US election map then he can see that Harris dominated in NorthEast states and the Eastern Coast, exactly where the big economic centres are based (New York, New Jersey, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco etc).   Also what i observe regarding politics in western europe is that Socialdemocratic/centre-left parties have become extremely pro-market and even neo-liberal and some traditional right parties have become euroscepticist and protectionist, exactly the opposite as it was in 70s-80s
