Emma Zapletalová 55.45 in W 400H..missed the standard by 0.05 still not even counted in the ranking because this is her first official season and has only 3 registered races, athletes must have 5 races apparently to be counted in the ranking, I swear,  if she will have to miss Tokyo it will be really unfair and sad

naaa...she has so many meets left in the calendar before the end of the OQP...

 

I'm sure she gets the qualifying time in the next couple of outings (provided she finds good weather)...

For fans of micro-athletics, this is also on YouTube with a charming Italinglish commentary.  (The picture on the link does not represent the actual event.). We’ve got a Moldovan javelin thrower at 84 metres, which is excellent by any standard.

Season goal reached 

She looked good and Doha and this track in Jamaica as very quick.

Strange that she never reached that level in Gateshead, though.  
 

Actually the True World Record.

 

1. F G-J more doped than Jimi Hendrix

2. Broken wind gauge, was reading more than 3m/s all day.

Can we find results of this whole meet anywhere? Just out of curiousity.

[heywoodu 16,000]

Still going on. This was morning heat 1 of the Jamaican nationals!  Maybe live on some kind of Caribbean ESPN or whatever.

Yeah, it helped that the video above had the name of the event (Olympic Destiny Series 3) and some tweet had a link  

 

Nothing special in other events by the looks of it.
