Heard the ranking should be released tomorrow (Thursday, July 1st), but not sure if it is true

They've been released on a Wednesday every other week. Be strange to change that

Alfons Juck, our athletics madman, the guy I linked the tweet earlier said it in a comment in our athletics fb. I believe, he has extreme knowledge about athletics and everything in the backstage of this sport

 

the last sentence :  Dúfajme, že sa to potvrdí vo štvrtok (Gabriela moved to the the qualifying positions after the NCh and Luzerne meeting. Let s hope it will be confirmed Thursday)

 

he posted it last night, so It looks he knew something we dont as usual The guy is a true encyclpodia of Athletics

I truly hope Gabi makes it!! The bigger team is, the better .... Btw .. How about Ledecká in hurdles event?

He also announced Belarus would host the Team Championships, but then Belarus started kidnapping people so it never happened.

Yeah, that would be great, but you know, still nothing official, so lets wait and not start to celebrate too early, that never bring anything good

 

Ledecká is out for sure, just like Veszelka (sadly the surgery destroyed his Olympic dream this time, but lets hope for everything good for Paris) and Škvarková. According to his counts also Volko lost the 200m quota but should qualify at least in 100m, + we will have 3 more (and Gajanová if confirmed will make it at the very last minute, hopefully)

I have a day-off at work today, so I started to prepare top 8 lists in athletics, sth similar to what @OlympicsFan has done for swimming.

Results from outdoor season 2021, only athletes who qualified - and will probably perform in Tokyo - included.

I have put the first part (men's track events) in the Athletics at the Summer Olympics 2020 thread:

https://totallympics.com/topic/7393-athletics-at-the-summer-olympic-games-2020/?do=findComment&comment=389805

More to come soon.

Let me know if you notice something's wrong on these lists.

Some questions I have during making them:

Is this true what English wikipedia says that Filip & Jakob Ingebrigtsen will participate in 1500m only and skip 5000m?

Will Soufiane El Bakkali participate in 1500m (he is 4th on toplists in 1500m and 1st in 3000m steeple)?

And Issac Makwala - is he planning to run not only 400m but 200m as well?

[dodge 1,024]

You can see on the world athletics road to some athletes who have officlly withdrawn. including Ingebritsen in 5k

yep, would be great to be part of a +/- 100 athletes team and actually with medal chances at the Olympics for once
