50k to go in the Womens' Paris-Roubaix & all of a sudden we have a group of 4 big names off the front...... .....and immediately they back off & let other dangerous contenders back in.

And some more events. The European Running Championships from .

gets a lot of bad press, but every now and then they get one of the big calls right. China tells people who weigh less than 110 lb to stay indoors Quite right, they are making the rest of us feel bad in the lead-up to the Easter chocolate season.

Rowing season starts tomorrow afternoon & ends tomorrow evening with The Boat Race. Some familiar problems - water quality like a 50s horror film & disputes as to whether those recently arrived 28-year old Olympic gold medallists really doing that degree in Sanskrit Philology & Euclidean Geometry.

This is true. In you get bigger turnouts for winter sport events if you hold them in a village - because everyone turns up - than you would if you held them in a huge city.

Sure, people had to race for places, not just wins.

Another FTA meet tomorrow from Florida - mainly.sprints & US or West Indian.athletes.

Now of course we're having touching arguments every end.....

start with a nice 3 against

Just the same - it is in Canada. We need to wait 12 hours.

Going into the last 3 rounds, the only sure Q at 9-1. The only teams surely eliminated are & , so lots of drama coming.
