Ján Volko destroyed today the 100m National record running (for Slovakia) a incredible 10.16 :hyper: but still 0.04 behind the WCH qualification standard :( this is too harsh standard IMO

It is not harsh, it is outright INSANE. It is higher than our National Record and the person that is behind our NR has ran in semi-finals in Olympics, has been to the World Championships and nearly even medalled in the European Championships, but got an injury right before the final, was only behind Vicaut and Lemaitre after semis.

Ankle injury for Filippo Tortu. He tripped on a step yesterday night. His coach and father says that he will skip the u20 European Championships in July and is not sure about the World Championships.

Oh come on, that is terribly unlucky..

From what I've read, in 2014 he run the 200m at the Youth Olympics, fell after the finish and broke both his arms. The last time he officially run the 200m before yesterday (2015) he then had to stop for 6 months for a muscular injury. He has been very unlucky with this distance.

 

However, he will be evaluated again next week.

Menno Vloon had a PR of 5.60m, jumped 5.70m yesterday to get the standard for the world champs, then moved to 5.85m and cleared that as well, new national record :d:NED

 

 

How do you improve PB by 25 cm. :p

    • Interesting remark by the  Comms - apparently FIS have restructured their definitions of Cross Country wins, to reduce the impact of all those semi-wins in stage races with a start advantage, so Johaug is now put on 82 wins.   Obviously prompted by Shiffrin on 99....

    • Who wins today? Johaug and Klaebo???   No  or  flags on the start so i cheer for Jasmi Joensuu  she’s the girl to watch this season, mind my words 
    • Sarcastically of course, cheering for the fact she basically received no punishment     Tennis and football are jokes in terms of combatting doping.
