Athletics 2021 Discussion Thread

Ultimate commentators curse moment for Donovan Brazier in the US 800m trials. Had been getting mega-hype all week, flopped in the final.  Meanwhile Clayton Murphy won with a 1:43.17 WL, almost unnoticed.’

Another national champs for you - . Starting tomorrow, to Sunday.  And of course  resumes tonight on the audaciously bootlegged Sprint King YT channel.

A lot of our athletes will miss either or both nationals and Olympics. 

 

Kołeczek (100 m hurdles) and Ennaoui (1500m) will miss both due to injury, Różnicki on 800m will miss both events too, but in his case it was coach decision due to "too young age"...

 

Swoboda and Bukowiecki for now, at least, will be in Tokyo.

 

Again Karol Hoffmann (triple jump) will miss nationals and that means Tokyo too.

Looks like Patrycja Wyciszkiewicz-Zawadzka on 400m will watch Olympics from home as she didnt make final, same about Aleksandra Gaworska. First race after injury from Anna Kiełbasinska and already had very good result, 52.72.

Maria Andrejczyk in javelin isnt medal contender in Tokyo anymore. Nationals was her first event after European Throwing Cup in May due to injury and she still isnt in fully shape, but despite not being fit she takes gold with just 59.79m...

Wyciszkiewicz was relay depth anyway. Likewise Gaworska who is like heats depth at best. Swiety, Holub, Kaczmarek & probably Baumgart make up the quartet.
