First time since 1991 (!) that there's no Jesus Angel Garcia in the 50k :cry:

 

Did he retire?

No.

He didn't compete at National Championships because he expected his performance in 2016 to be enough to be added to the team, but 3 men match the qualification criteria and he was left out.

Also, any news in the women's 50km race walk entrys?

 

Inês Henriques and Erin Talcott both confirmed they would compete, but what about the other three girls that matched criteria?

Has Henriques definitely been confirmed as an entrant?

Her qualifying time was set in a race that wasn't approved as a qualifying competition so the IAAF would have to change the rules to get her in.

Well, her time there was ratified as a World record. Makes no sense that it doesn't count for qualification. :dunno:

I'm sure they will change the rules to allow her to compete.

And maybe the Brazilian will also be allowed to race (as the best South American) - making a maximum of 6

According to portuguese press, Inès is compiting in 50km:

Well I hope the 2 chinese athletes and the brazilian compete. In my opinion IAAF should open their hand a little bit and invite up to 10 athletes, at least for having an accepting number...

Or, like Evan Dunfee suggested, tell all 20km competitors they can start in the 50 if they want. It's not perfect, but surely there are several who'd like to give it a try.

    • 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.
    • Thursday April 30th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 2 Results (GMT +8)   12:30   Estonia  5 - 1  Netherlands 16:00   South Korea  6 - 4  Spain 19:30   Romania  3 - 4OT  China   Provisional Standing After Day 2:   1.    6 ----------------- 2.   6 3.   4 4.   2 5.   0 6.   0
    • 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
