Athletics IAAF World Championships 2017


Recommended Posts

Odds of 1.4 for Ines Henriques to take the women's gold. Sounds brilliant judging by her PB being 14 minutes faster than anyone else, but I guess with all of these women having walked only one 50k it's a bit hard to really know what anyone's capable of :p

Eurosport Player is live, my fear that it wouldn't be shown anywhere was incorrect:woohoo:

And I get to watch it on an actual TV screen :thumbup:

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

No live timing so far, even though they've already come past the start line two times. These championships really are not very good in terms of these kind of organizational stuff.

That will only makes things more complicated and harder to see for viewers, plus you'll get all kinds of protests and video reviews to see if it really was touched or not etc. Nothing but disadvantages.

Well, if you rest the bar on narrower plates the bar will fall off if you touch it!

It would still be possible to touch it without having it move. If you make it so narrow that with every possible touch it falls, it could just as easily fall from a breeze of wind and you'd go to video reviews to see if it was touched, or if it only was a bit of wind etc

    • After all, Trento is the capital of Alto Adige... For me personally Trento is nicer places than Bolzano, but I haven't been there for many years, so maybe I would have a different opinion now.

    • A comeback would absolutely be doable  - Joe Pavey, Mara Yamauci  & Georgia Hunter Bell all rejoined the sport very successfully after many years out with careers or family.
    • That's great, congratulations to both of you! I wish her a good recovery. 
    • This is not a full retirement, but kind of a break/sabbatical due to...reasons.    For those who have been following @brunamoura's journey towards and last February eventually, finally, at the Olympics, this might be an interesting update. The 2030 Olympics are still in her sight, but next year's world championships in February seem...unlikely.   She still needs to do at least two surgeries, one on her nasal cavities due to a chronic inflammation that has been bothering her for years, and one on her legs. In the Olympic season she struggled immensely with pain in her legs, which in the freestyle technique made her sometimes just not even able to move and therefore finish or even start the races. The Olympic 10k freestyle was hard and painful, but she managed to get through it. We knew she was dealing with compartment syndrome, which is quite serious and certainly needs to be dealt with surgically, but the recovery time for that meant that doing so during the season would likely jeopardize the Olympics - again.   The plan was to do the surgeries this year, but that's unlikely to happen now...    
    • My admittedly tiny sample at least made it feel like the safest and nicest place     Milan....I was very glad to be out of there, Bologna almost felt even worse, and I was also happy to leave Trento behind after barely a day there   Livigno didn't feel bad like that, the issue there is that Livigno people seem to believe the world outside of Livigno doesn't really exist.   Every time I have been in South Tyrol though, it always just felt...lovely, cozy, nice, friendly, and so on.   But obviously that is all a matter of opinion. Besides that I mostly went on statistics and Alto Adige generally scoring very high in things like quality of life and low crime rates  
    • Very interesting Article, not a lot of vast shocks in it, but great that she's found some happiness. She switched allegiance to Ireland from the US quietly a few years back, but I'd say the odds on her acting on it are pretty long - still, it maybe feels like a little statement of emancipation to herself, in which case, good on her.
    • That Kazda´s first goal was also something else
