In in their next sensational revelation, scientists will reveal that rocks are hard, ice is old and water is wet. Most people do not pay attention to celebrities expressing their views in support of political causes, according to new polling. While just over half of people think it is acceptable for celebrities to raise awareness about such causes, the vast majority say they are not interested in hearing more about these issues from famous people, according to a recent survey. Little appetite for celebrities airing political views, polling suggests

So...for the first time I had a look at the timetable.....and we in Europe have it pretty easy! Only a small number of overnight sessions "Evening" sessions lasting from mid morning to early afternoon Apart from the Road Events, no stupid finals in Morning Sessions! Plenty of catch-up time at a reasonable hour Plenty of time for morning shopping, exercise etc before vegging out in front of the TV Was preparing for a State of Siege, but life will be almost normal.

Almost an epic drama from my father's team Hibernian as they score 3 in 10 second half minutes to come back from 1-3 down to lead Legia Warsaw 3-4 ......only to concede deep into Injury Time 4-4 and lose 5-4 in Extra Time . Bring back the Away Goals Rule!

These are also up on YT. UIPM – World Pentathlon - YouTube

Was not criticisng you.

Only person to manage it for sure, although Kovacs is depending on Crowser's physio making a mess of it.

Better in Zurich than in front of 50 people & 300 cows up in the valleys somewhere.

Saw the same thing last year when Louise Maraval ran I think 5 consecutive PBs. Saved her worst race for the Olympic Final, though.

Zapletalova continues her great month with a third NR.

steeplechaser, crying floods there.

Not a good time for Królik to get injured!

End the Run Under Protest crap!

Think one Triple Jumper señorita each for would be the fairest way.

Oh Lordy Jess Hull in a collapse for all time!

We are off on TV. Nasr takes the 400m.

Yeah, she did a stupid thing but like in many sports rules exist in order to prevent judges having to make a subjective decision.

Wavelight Times for tonight. Nobody going for anything too extravagant, mostly MRs Zurich Diamond League | Wavelight Technologies

Just to confirm about BBC Coverage from Zurich tomorrow - we do get the whole thing, just split. Coverage begins at 17:30 BST on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and app, with the action also live on BBC Two from 19:00-21:00.

More urban summer biathlon this Sunday, from Dresden Eurovision Sport | Mediacard - Biathlon | EVS_250831_20250831CBIDresden_1_event Participants etc. Small but varied fields. Biathlon: the full programme for the City Biathlon Dresden, a show organised in a football stadium in which Océane Michelon, Quentin Fillon-Maillet, Lou Jeanmonnot and Eric Perrot will be taking part on Sunday | Nordic Mag | N°1 Biathlon | Nordic skiing

And there are plenty of these city centre meets held every season, not just at DL level, so it all evens out.

If Kovacs is planning a Tonya Harding-style assault on Ryan Crouser he's going to need a bigger crowbar.

Still nostalgic for the days when the winners of the Golden League got a couple of kilograms of chocolate in the form of gold bars.

I guess tracks are built they can be tweaked for jumpers, sprinters or distance runners, so you might argue that it's fair that every now & jumpers get a track that is just for them.

Or get 2.00 & finish fourth......

Morgan Lake 2.00 NR in the HJ. She had been stalled in the 1.90s for years & years!
