Lineup looks tasty.

@hckošice and at 6 p.m. it is Swimming ECh & Zlata Tretra together. A swimming-athletics combo, like a rehersal of days 7-9 at the olympics ;-)

for me it's no. 1 and 2 sports at the olympics, so the choice depends on which event is going on at the time ;-)

@hckošice have you ever been at Zlata Tretra to watch it live on the stadium?

For me it's very interesting how Patryk Dobek performs in 800m. He won 800m in 2021 indoor Ech, but he has been running 400m hurdles during previous outdoor seasons, not 800m.
