@dcro Would've been fun to see Vlašič in this one. On the other hand, what happened to Šimič? She looked very good a couple of years ago, but recently has been struggling around 1.90

Okay, we're safe over 1.89. It's actually very sad how I have to be worried at 1.89 for a person that jumped 2.01 a couple of months back Injuries took out around 30% of our team and when our numbers are small, it really takes its tall. Edis and Airinė were the only ones who decided to participate during rehabilitation of their injuries, whilst other 5 athletes declined participation and a few capable ones were taken our earlier in the season.

For Airinė Palšytė this is only the second competition after a bad injury two months ago, she had troubles with 1.90 after that, but hopefully she'll make the final.

He is badly injured, after breaking our national javelin record, he damaged his elbow and couldn't throw. In those two months until the World Championships he only appeared in Lithuanian Championships and U23, those two appearances was the only throwing that he did during his injury, so he couldn't work on his technique.

Woah, Totallympics really loves Athletics, already 100+ pages of content. Anyhow, I am very happy that Balčiūnaitė made the semi-final, it was very unexpected.

Yes, it was a long wait, but definitely worth while. Too bad that Airinė Palšytė is badly injured, so there's no other chance for a medal for us.

OMG. Gold is ours!!!!!!!!! First World Championships medal after Virgilijus Alekna back in 2005.

Well, I wouldn't say that Gudžius was irrelevant, he had thrown 66+ metres before and this season consistently throwing 67+, but he usually didn't perform well in competitions, apart from the fact that he had multiple medals in U23 and youth categories. We deal with doping in our country.

OMG!!! I expected there could be a medal, but PB with 69 metres is amazing. Nice work by Gudžius!!!

I think that if I'd ever go beyond 10km's, I'd die. Of course, I'm running without water on hand and I still don't have the perfect clothing that I need, so it tends to get uncomfortable

I managed to run 10km for the first time in my life this year, the journey took over an hour I ran 5km nearly every day, but now it became too hot and I became too lazy.

There's nothing more painful/embarassing than comparing my running time with the professionals Let's just say I'd struggle to get inside 30 minutes with 5km

Never gonna trust Ethopia ever again.

1st day and I can already throw my predictions out the window

Ooh, that's nice 67 metres for Andrius Gudžius and a Q to the final after 1st throw. Also, noticed that Milanov is probably out after group A, so our chances for a first medal in twelve years are growing.

Also, this thread is a pretty good representation on which sports categories threads are dead on this forum

Basically nothing has changed for me over the years. 1. Athletics 2. Swimming 3. Rowing 4. Modern Pentathlon 5. Cycling Track 6. Canoe Sprint (was really close to get into top 5)

It would be 'Snieguolė' in our language

I believe she's been in Ireland for a while, only returning to Lithuania for some competitions and what not

@OlympicIRL Hey, I have a funny story for you Don't know if you've noticed, but there is this athlete Snezana Bechtina, that registered to the European Veteran Championships whilst still being Lithuanian, but decided to represent Ireland in this competition and won a 400m. bronze medal in W35 category with a time of 57.52

Eh, so only three finals for us so far in these World Championships (+ another one for Meilutytė tomorrow in 50 breaststroke). Titenis and Bilis underperformed horribly, Rapšys should have taken 100m. backstroke as well for at least another final. Perhaps there's a chance to get a medal from Rūta, since she has a very good start and it's only 50m. Still, pretty bad championships for us.

Honestly, it sucks for everybody, because you want to be able to achieve PB's and possibly other competition standards in competitions like these. Good thing there's still a full year for that before U18 ECH. Basically, athletes from smaller countries have less chances for that, because in most cases there's no one to challenge them in their own country.

If I recall correctly, it was the women's 100m. final where the wind was +6.6 ms and three girls ran under 11.60 There was also +3-5 ms wind jumping around in the semi-finals of 110m. Hurdles And +4 ms during the long jump competition.

We're still at two 4th places in this festival, I wonder if anyone is capable of getting a medal.
