Huh? What's the irony? Reekie & Hodgkinson's results speak for themselves. Sharp has minimal chance to regain #1 UK status at 800m and I presume she knows it full well.

She's had a good career but she's over 30 and unlikely to improve.

 

I do feel sorry for her at being the victim of bullying by Semenya fans who thought she said worse things about Caster than she did.

 

What she actually said in 2016 was "“It is out of our control and we're pretty much relying on people at the top sorting it out,” . “The public can see how difficult it is… but all we can do is give it our best.” I can't see much controversial in that

How is it an European junior record when 5 European women have been faster in the U20?

It was Burgin not Hodgkinson who set the EJR. Hodgkinson's effort was a NR.

1) I know that it was an EJR for Burgin

2) Did you even read the comment I replied to?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

It’s a double bill on Sunday night with the Gateshead DL (other thread) and then 30 minutes later the Boston World Continental Gold meet on YouTube.  It’s street racing, but many big names.

According to the weather forecast it'll be a lovely day in Gateshead until about the time the athletics start. Then we'll have the steady heavy rain as usual.

Yesterday in Birštonas, Andrius Gudžius took the WL with a 68.62 in the discus.

 

Same competition, Indrė Jakubaitytė improved on her W45 Javelin World Record that she achieved a week ago, it's now 54.56.

Yes I did, which is why I was trying to point out that your question was irrelevant given that it was based on false information.

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
