Well, there is no "long throw" events and Blanka just retired few days ago Makedonas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malwina Kopron said Swoboda got infected in Spala from one of the training athletes that don't take part in indoor sports. Second positive test for Swoboda. She's out 100%. Meanwhile Malgorzata Holub is pulled from the 400m individual races and won't be replaced by anyone leaving Swiety-Ersetic as the lone entry. Then what's the point of having SIX 400m runners if there only will be a relay final contested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focusing on relay isn't enough good argument and yet Lesiewicz had a standard that could start on 400m individual... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it would make sense to at least put Lesiewicz in the individual. Due to her lack of experience I think she won't make the relay despite finishing 2nd at the Polish indoors.

GB obviously sending their reserves, which is smart. Compared to the Olympics, this event is irrelevant. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
