  1. Back in the olden days you could do it! I remember a European 3000m Indoors where the British athlete John Mayock won Gold, it was like a rugby match against the Spanish athletes.
  2. Think Nakaayi will need to have good lawyers.
  3. Tortu is lucky loser, Italian in the World Final, must the first in a long time.
  4. Does not have to be much, .001 is a fingernail.
  5. It is like women downhill skiers with long ponytails, completely crazy was to slow yourself down when .001 can cost you a Gold Medal.
  6. Because he broke the first hurdle, he did not get both legs over it.
  7. Seemingly he has alopecia - scalp disease which causes all his hair to fall out. But even then I don't think he looks like 19.
  8. OK, I'll give you that one.
  9. Still one heat to go, mate. But a decent time.
  10. Is 2nd in the 6 fast loser list, so probably has a chance to qualify.
  11. There's not much going on just now actually. Discus quals finished a while back, men's PV still at the rubbish stage.
  12. Nijel Amos, one of the favourites for the 800m has pulled out, not wanting to aggravate a minor injury.
  13. Americans unusually poor in the women's 100m.
  14. No problems queuing for hot dogs and beer though! If there was beer. Or hot dogs.
  15. Sao Tome e Principe peaked too early.
  16. Nepal's medalless run continues.
  17. Always think that if you are going to hit a gate you should really almost destroy it, like Hedzwig did there. Get full value for your 2 seconds.
  18. Nice clean run for David Florence, needs a top 5 to go to Tokyo.
  19. Would depend on the advice given to the teams when the Championships started. Although you see people using cars for drafting in all the weekly races, if the UCI had said in the technical meeting that the rules would strictly applied here, then it’s the team’s fault for not telling their riders.
  20. Only a single medal and I think I can remember it. Anju Bobby George in the Long Jump?
  21. Crowd is not huge, but all the Ethiopian and Kenyan fans give a lot of atmosphere. This is normal for the Doha Diamond League - there must be a lot of East Africans working there.
  22. BBC says that Jakob is confirmed in the 5000m.
  23. According to the BBC Jakob did step off the track in the first heat, will go to the judges because it was on the straight. (On the bend, definitely out, on the straight, judges' decision. Three whole steps off the track in the clip
  24. Wasn't someone saying earlier that Saudia Arabla were boycotting? There is a Saudi athlete starting in the 5000m.
  25. Yes, I know. The irony is that the Ancient Greeks themselves thought the Macedonians were barbarian non-Greeks.
