At the British trials today World and Olympic 400m gold medalist Christine Ohourogu failed to reach the final. I think this is the end for her after winning medals at nine successive world/Olympic championships.

Any chance she can still make the relay squad for London?

Meanwhile despite cold weather & rain 18 years old heptathlete :UKR Alina Shukh has just qualified to London with 6208 pts :thumbup: (with quite strong headwind in 100mH and 200m ... -3.2 and -2.8, she managed to achieve PBs in both events). NU20R - the previous record stood for 33 years.

Is it usual for Kenya to finish the medal table with ~10 medals in the African Championships or are they having a bad year/their main athletes skipping the event? Just curious.

Kenya participated with 14 athletes ,Ethiopia 69, South africa 24   but there is no excuse as many Kenyans didn't get the minima

Major announcement just been made.

A study has revealed female athletes with hyperandrogenism get a huge boost because of their high testosterone levels

Too late for 2017 but, for example, the 800m could be very different in 2018
