Katarina Johnson Thompson got her outdoor season underway last week competing in three events in Florida at Hurricane Invitational.

 

She clocked 13.70 seconds in the 100m hurdles. That is marginally faster than her 2023 opener.

 

In the long jump, she went out to 6.05m which is a modest start to the season.

 

Finally, in the 200m, she clocked 24.28 seconds.

Men:

Tade Ojora - 110m Hurdles

Yusuf Bizimana - 800m / 1500m

Ricky Harvie - 3000m Steeple

Zac Seddon - 3000m Steeple

Efe Uwaifo - Triple Jump

Bayley Campbell - Hammer

Lawrence Okoye - Discus

Jack Turner - Decathlon

 

Women:

Dina Asher-Smith - 100m / 200m

Yemi John - 400m

Victoria Ohuruogu - 200m / 400m

Chay Clark - 400m Hurdles

Jessica Tappin - 400m Hurdles

Poppy Tank - 3000m Steeple

Temi Ojora - Triple Jump

Definitely get the feeling that the athletes have started their season a bit earlier than usual as they go in search of the all important Olympic qualifying standards.

:question: Something's not quite adding up on these KJT results so treat them with caution. They were sourced from her performance page at World Athletics but when I checked Po10 they're not included and I've just had chance to cross reference the event's results for other British performances and she isn't listed there. 

 

Think I may have been taken in by WA's fake news :mad:

I’m still amazed just how long David Weir has carried on competing for.

    • Ben Hebert: "... We have a hockey mentality on our curling team, we’re not going to be bullied and pushed over by a bunch of Swedish guys out there that are getting their a**es handed to them." “We didn’t have any of that, we finished at the top of the podium with the gold and they finished dead last, so I think that says a lot.” Hebert is long known in curling media circles for not being afraid to speak his mind, and he didn’t let up in his ire when it came to the genesis of the entire situation -- Eriksson. “That snake in the grass,” Hebert said. “The stuff he tried to pull at the Olympics is not very Olympia of him… I lost a lot of respect for him with the stuff he tried to pull. He’s won the Olympics, they’ve won Grand Slams, they’ve won World Championships, and when they were at the high of their peak, you never saw that stuff from him. These last two or three years, they’ve been on a brutal stretch and pretty irrelevant in the curling world, haven’t won anything, they’re out of the Grand Slams, dead last in the Olympics puts a stamp on that.."
