Thanks for those points, they are enlightening, so her target tomorrow should be to go below 9:20

sure if she is able to do that it  would be  an excellent improvement and she can position herself as one of the athletes who can be in the top group 4-6 race leaders at Rio  ......also importantly for us she would be seen as the best in the Asian context ...currently Ruth jebet from Bahrain has been doing 9.21... this has been her progress over the last 2 years 

 

Twenty-six-year-old Lalita, who switched to 3000m steeplechase two years ago , bettered the National record for the fourth  time in a span of about 18months to underline that good work ethics could never go unrewarded.

In the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, Lalita had clocked 9:37.35 to go past Sudha Singh’s National record of 9:47.70 and bag the bronze medal. She achieved her personal best again in September last to claim an Asian Games silver medal.

Lalita, hailing from Satara district of Maharashtra, left an impact in the Wuhan Asian championship where she cut more than a second (9:34.13) to claim the gold medal and make it to the World championship and next year’s Rio Olympics.

 

In Beijing, she once again raised the bar to time 9:27.86 to come fourth in her heat and eighth overall to qualify for the finals in great style.

 

after that had broken that again in the fed games just last month .....................

 

so it possible for her to better her time but 6-7 seconds may be a lot

I watched her in the Fed Cup achieve the new NR with ease in the sapping, polluted weather in Delhi, she was not stretched at all and immediately after the event ran to the scorers, to check her timings, so maybe going below 9:20 tomorrow with stiff competition is a possibility.

Kalpana Devi ( thoudham - nice name for a fighter ) points will go up...................... but I have been disappointed in her performances this year ................................ I think avtar has done better this year in Judo  ..................... his fight is tomorrow I think so hope he does better and stays ahead of kalpana

at the archery world cup at medellin ..... Indian second string team provides no upsets .............no individuals reach semis ...... 2 indian men reach compound quarters ( abhishek and gurwinder ) and 1 indian women in compound quarter lily paonam ...... the only person who stood out was Lily .... I think she may be a good talent for the women compund team with jyothi .........................

 

we lost in the mixed and recurve teams in the 1st and 2nd rounds 

 

so our only hope rests with the compound teams ...India has reached the semis in women compound and quarters in men compound

    • All Milano-Cortina Olympians are to be find in the first posts of the respective threads just like in this one.
    • Almost sadder than a university hall of residence
    • Big shock as  beat the all-conquering  Men's Team Sprint team in the Heats!
    • sure! in every Italian bedroom you normally have every kind of table, chairs, furniture, tv screen  to me, this really look an unfinished room, you normally don't see such a sad place even when you buy a new house 
    • Canoe Sprint There is a now a cap of 5 athletes per gender in the kayak events (down from 6 in 2024). The World Championships has been replaced by the Olympic Qualification Rankings.   K2 lost 2 boat quotas while K4 has gained 1 boat quota. Quota distribution is quite complicated as it usually is for canoe sprint. They also force nations to compete in a minimum number of events based on the number of athletes qualified; 2 and 3 athletes per boat class must compete in 2 events, 4 must compete in all 3 events and 5 must compete in all 3 events and have two entries in the K1 event.
    • Wrestling will have a completely new format, I do not like the changes. ranking isn't really a good idea in this sport, this will force wrestlers to compete in so many events to collect points. which is not good for their health. specially with the current UWW ranking points distribution system which is plain stupid   they are also gifting 18 quotas to very weak countries by that last qualification event. but I understand their point of view. can't wait to see lots of Russian wrestlers compete for weak countries for that 1 available quota.
    • Canoe Slalom Quotas from men's/women's K1 have been moved to men's/women's KX1. K1 will now have 14 quotas while KX1 will have 10 quotas. C1 remains at 17 quotas. Athletes may participate in other events up to a maximum of 2 athletes per NOC.   The World Championship qualifier has been dropped in favour of the Olympic Qualification Rankings (7 K1, 10 C1, 3 KX1), afterwards you have the Continental Qualifiers (1 per boat) and then a new Global Qualifier (2 per boat).   There were a few changes regarding ways to ensure an athlete can only obtain 1 quota. The biggest being at each stage the boat priority is K1 > KX1 > C1 for the rankings and KX1 > K1 > C1 for the continental/global qualifiers. This basically means if the same athlete qualifiers in multiple boats then the quota will be given to the kayak over canoe.    
    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
