This new event will be ridiculous...is IAAF trying to show that race walk (50km in particular) is a joke, so they will have more support when they decide to remove it? :p 

It looks like IAAF doesn't even know their own sport and because of that are indeed trying to show this :rolleyes:

 

They'd better take a look at the last 50km races, which have almost all been a lot more exciting than the average major champs 100m final. 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

New U20 WR in Peru for Pan Am U20, USA Men's 4x400m 3:00.33

 

Full results http://www.tiempodellegada.com/Results/2017/INTERNACIONAL/PANAM_U20/

 

USA wins medal table easily like always: 22 golds, 14 silvers, 18 bronze, though in 2015 they had 30 golds.

Canada has probably their best ever Pan Am U20 performance with 6 golds, 9 silver, 7 bronze. We got two National U20 records with Anastas Eliopoulos 13.36 (-0.6) in Men's 110mH, and Camryn Rogers 63.42m in Women's Hammer. Rogers now has broke her own Hammer record 5 times this year (4 competitions she broke it in, but she broke it twice today) :d
