Athletics at the Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024

Sharon Firisua competed in Rio in 5000m.

In Tokyo was part of marathon race.

This time she competed in 100m. 

[rybak 3,161]

Michał Haratyk and Konrad Bukowiecki in shot put not only failed to qualify to final but both of them also failed to throw over 20m  Eurosport commentator was right that if they aren't sure about their form they shouldn't be here, as they can't throw over 20,50m since few years already....

I agree, maybe i'm not the fan of NZ system or Dutch story in beach volleyball but i think we also must have some minimum standards. Well Haratyk ok after EC, but Bukowiecki? They knew his shape, this is a joke like in W 200m back swimming.

World Athletics have their own timetable/results system which is way better than the Olympics.com one.

Sabino  false starts & gets the long walk 

[Monzanator 4,442]

Here come the 800m repechages. Only winners will go through + 2 LL.

[Josh 10,135]

 Obiena in some serious trouble here with two X’s at 5.60m. He passed on his final attempt and will take on another height in a bit.

Allie Wilson with a Johnny Gray tribute run. Wielgosz with a truly pathetic effort. Looked even more tired than yesterday.

“Ally Wilson determined not to make the same mistake twice” say ES commentator as she makes the same mistake twice.
