Adrianna Sułek with some major turbo...
 
Two results over 5,000 points?

Sułek crying on Polish TV... not all super happy with silver

5,014 points for Sułek but Thiam 5,055 WR. Amazing.

Kambundji wins with ease 7.00 CR. Silver for Swoboda. Neita bronze.

men's team sprint was fourth yesterday and neither of Żurek, Kania and Michalski wasn't even in top5 today, there goes all our chances for medal at these Worlds 

Some good results today. Highlight definitely "two" world record(s) in heptathlon. Thiam was marking Sulek throughout the whole five disciplines. Every time Sulek broke away with a good jump or throw there was Thiam with an equal or better attempt. Shot put was good too. I thought Italy would suffer without the man the myth the legend Ponzio, but Weir came out swinging with a new NR. Other final result were more or less as expected. In 60m all three medallists were by far better than the rest. Nice try from Rosius who got a PB twice if I'm not mistaken, once in semis and then in the final. Jakob controlled the race in 1500m, and Koko and Klein in 3000m for ladies. Tomorrow is D-day for us. Šutej is arguably the nr. 1 favorite in pole vault. I hope she finally gets her gold. 

1-2-3-4 again. Yawn.
 
Doherty 18th @RobtheAggie and Zakhna 19th with some noticeable results.
 
PB for Kresimir Crnkovic in 31st.

I miss the guy with the flag  

Yes, as NearPup points out, Whistler is basically only for elite jumpers with two hills K-95 and K-125. Those are not hills for pre-high school teenagers, beginners, semi-pro or whatever you call it.
 
For comparison the 'Middle Krokiew' complex in Zakopane has five hills (K-95, K-64, K-37, K-23 and K-15). K-64 is for 15-16 year olds, K-37 is more for 13-14 year olds and the last two are for little kids. Poland has four K-64-ish hills and twelve K-37-ish hills in operation right now.

I'm not sure where to post this but there was a train accident in Greece a couple days ago where so far 57 people died, 85 are injured and 56 are still missing. Emmanouela Katzouraki, who is 21 yo and currently holds the number 2 ranking in the women's skeet shooting, is one of the 85 who is injured. Everyone please keep her and the other victims in your thoughts.
 
She is currently back at her home in Thessaloniki so it seems that she will be okay. Some other, lesser known athletes died (many of the victims were university students going back to Thessaloniki after the holiday of Clean Monday). I apologise for not knowing/remembering their names.

At last, the straight up / battle the world has been waiting for!  
 
 Loses, so has to change their name to the Japanese spelling.

Much ado anbout nothing so far. I'll be amazed if anyone actually boycotts Paris 2024 but it's long away enough that a lot of countries think they can bluff IOC with a weak hand. Watch that tactics ho nowhere the closer we get to 2024. NBC didn't pay billions of dollars for TV rights to have no US athletes involved either

Like who's going to believe in European Parliament having any integrity as they're embroiled in a massive corrpution scandal right now? Or is Eva Kaili & friends swept under the carpet already?

@hckošiceApparently Martin Mesik wants to kick out the ski jumping fed boss over not selecting any Slovakians for the Planica WCh and lying about consulting with him about it. Mesik will inquiry with the Ministry of Sport

As some of you already know, on Sunday I went to Planica. I am regular guest of Ski Flying for 25 years, so though I heard, how high they put prices and there is not a lot of home crowd, I decided to visit our treasure in heart of national park.
 
Luckily I am quite frequent Totallympian, and with that I had an honour to meet in person our star, future Olympian. I know I have already thank you, but once more, @brunamoura, thanks for those five minutes of your time and of course, though I would come to see competitions anyway, thank you for tickets.
 
Only thing I regret is we did not have time for a bit longer talk, because your story is fascinating, but did not wanna bother your pre race time.
 
So, @heywoodu, take good care of her, when she comes back home, and when you are next time around (maybe both), do send me a PM, and maybe will grab a coffee.
 
 

Silver for Esteve Altimiras in the non-asthmatic category.

No way!!!!  I was hoping that one of our girls could bring home a medal here but I never expected this. This is incredible! Really hope this helps bring in some more funding

By God Watson, Canada can fly!   First ever medal at WC, men or women. Imagine, that random Olympic medal being the turning point for these and upcoming successes.  

Just a crazy achievement by  Loutitt. This sport gets no support and no coverage in Canada. This team is really doing it on their own, that they could produce a world champion is insane.

She's DOOOOONEEEEE ITTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Alexandria Loutitt is World Champion!!!
