Oscars related talk: Im fine with any of the films winning best picture except nickel boys and of course emilia perez. In terms of acting, i preferred Chalamet over Brody, and im ok with Mikey Madison or Fernanda Torres for the best actress. Im kinda not ok with Culkin and Saldana winning supporting because they are basically lead in the film (especially zoe saldana), so i would like if Yura Borisov or Jeremy Strong wins it. My biggest wins of the night would be if Im Still Here or Flow win best international instead of Emilia Perez and if the scumbag of Jacques Audiard goes empty handed.
the weather forecast was completely wrong...
very nice sunny day in Rieti, Today
despite that, "only" 59.71m for Daisy Osakue in the women's Discus Throw (still enough to win the Winter Title, in any case)
later in the afternoon, the men and women's Javelin Throw competitions will close the Winter Throwing Champs down
Been some great cross country races. Let’s hope the rest remain competitive and we don’t have too many meals being won by massive distances.
The British commentators complained at the end as they felt it should still be 15km.
Plus they think Johaug will stay for another year and do the Olympics. Is that likely?
Lordy, Slind has the worst equipment change in the history of all Olympic Sports, goes from medal contender to also ran in about 10 seconds.
Then compounds the error by trying to charge back right away, instead of taking her time.
