Athletics Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games

Now that I'm looking his case, I don't think he'll even need a 50km race.

 

If I'm not mistaken, the 2018 Europeans count for the olympic ranking. And he was second there with a great mark. So just doing a decent 20KM would allow him to enter easily by ranking.

 

Yes his 2018 European Champs 50K will still count towards world ranking points.  He scored 1283 points for that performance so a good 20K should qualify.  Currently 20 athletes have the 50K standard (based on 3 per nation), and quota for the event is 60.

Another one in this situation is Kevin Mayer ... Injured in Doha so no mark since 2018, he was planning to qualify in the US in April (4-5 or at least in San Diego the 17-18th)

The Podebrady 20km race in :CZE was cancelled today (rumors were saying thay should include a special 50k race there but now its gone) So last chance for Matej is the French championship. If it will be cancelled, it is definitive gae over...

 

 

quite ironic it would be to have a guy who was one of the main leaders fighters to keep this discipline at the Olympics in Tokyo missing the race itself :(

It's March 13, even if the french race is canceled he still has plenty of time to get a 20km decent race.

 

But, however, reading the "panic" around him I don't think he knows his 2018 europeans count for the ranking....

Next attempt - this May in Minsk at the team race walk worlds..the other problem would be, that only some 3 months will be between his two 50k races if qualify there and go to Tokyo :(

London Marathon postponed.  Would have been the British Olympic trial.  UK Athletics planning to organise a special closed-road event in late April, which I am sure other nations would want to join if possible.

    • Thanks for the amazing work on the spreadsheet. If my eye's read correctly you expect  to get a quota in Sprint (M) canoeing . This will be historic, if time permits could you elaborate a bit please. What are the chances we get to hold on to the quota place ? Is their a risk of missing out? Thanks! I don't follow canoeing much so had a hard time simulating the qualification scenarios. Thanks!

    • Yes, everyone is Orbán-supporter who doesn't believe Ukraine is snow white! How will change GDP if the price of the petrol increases? Because the main pipeline is shut down! And there is no any problem according by the EU!

    • Although it was a terrible Olympics for Canada, and my two favourite sports (Hockey and Short Track) really didn't work out for us, there were a couple of fun times.    -Women's Pursuit team winning gold because while it was not unexpected at all, it was still a great triumph against an amazing adversary.    -Dubreuil getting a surprise bronze in speed skating 500m.    -Really all of speed skating, Canada and otherwise.    -I really want to say Dubois getting gold in short track, but the whole thing was a mess.    -The last two ends of the men's curling gold medal game.    -Kingsbury getting gold. But it was more relief than excitement, unfortunately.    -I really like the luge relay. Canada was not involved, unfortunately, but it's always fun to watch.    -Men's freeski big air final was nuts! In all the good ways. That was truly the highest level of competition I've seen in a very long time.    -The dog crossing the finish line in cross country, which should have been the meme of the Olympics (not that...other thing).
    • Apparent Gu and Atkin do not like each other at all anymore. They were good freinds a few years ago but now hate one another.  I’m not sure Gu and Li Fanghui like each other either that much.
