    Updated the tracker with the qualifiers throughout this weekend: Athletics - Diamond League Monaco Rhasidat Adeleke (Women's 400m) Ciara Mageean (Women's 1500m) Swimming - World Championships, Fukuoka Ellen Walshe (Women's 200m Individual Medley) We now have 41 athletes qualified for Paris 2024!

    Ellen Walshe achieved the OQT in the women's 200 IM, just missing out on the final in 9th place.

    Who an earth is in charge of the Diamond League graphics these last few years? They are just truly terrible as always and not visually appealing. It is also annoying how they show start-lists, particularly in the sprints and relays where they can easily show the 8 names on the screen at once, but no they decide to show 6 and then scroll through the remaining ones. And then the results are always annoyingly bad, takes an age to find out where everyone finished and the times. And the field events are another cluster. It's seriously not that hard.

    Don't forget there were also qualifiers in the women's 1500m from the mile race at Monaco. Anyone running under 4:20.90 in the mile got the Olympic time.

    Rhasidat Adeleke becomes the 39th member of Team Ireland with a second place finish over 200m at the Gold Label meeting in Hungary this evening. Her time of 22.36 secs is well inside the Olympic qualifying time of 22.57 secs and just 0.02 secs off her own Irish record she set earlier in the year. Her main event of course being the 400m which she will hope to achieve the Olympic qualifying time at the Monaco Diamond League on Friday!

    Andrew Coscoran has become the 38th qualifier for Team Ireland with an impressive 4th place finish in the men's 1500m at the Diamond League in Silesia, Poland. He ran another new Irish record 3:30.42 mins! Seriously good time
  7. OlympicIRL
    3:30.42 for another new Irish NR for Coscoran . Qualifies for the Olympics too!
  8. OlympicIRL
    1-2 in the women's 1500m . Maybe in the reverse order that paper suggested but O'Sullivan is a fast finisher so not surprising that she got the better of Healy in the sprint finish.

    It looks like we have our 37th member of Team Ireland with Brian Fay breaking Alistair Cragg's long-standing Irish record in the men's 5000m tonight in Heusden-Zolder, Belgium. His time of 13:01.40 mins dips well below the Olympic qualifying time (13:05:00 mins).
  10. OlympicIRL
    Brian Fay 13:01.40 mins for a new Irish NR in men's 5000m in Heusden this evening and an Olympic qualifying time

    Wow, the discus official doing some gymnastics there

    Ta Lou missing the opportunity today to become the first athlete to qualify for Paris. It’s only a matter of time of course.
  13. OlympicIRL
    The last 3 Olympic champions all competing today in the men’s pole vault (Lavillenie, Braz and Duplantis). That’s something you don’t see very often in athletics. I love it when the former winners continue to compete and add a rich history to an event

    Sarah Lavin becomes our first athletics qualifier for the Paris Olympics. 12.73 secs for second in the Diamond League today and a new PB too
  15. OlympicIRL
    Sarah Lavin is qualified in the women’s 100m Hurdles
  16. OlympicIRL
    2nd place for Lavin in women’s 100m Hurdles with a new PB of 12.73 secs! She qualifies for the Olympics too
  17. OlympicIRL
    Stop the count!!

    Out of curiosity, is it still possible for a nation who qualified here to try to qualify another boxer at the same weight at the World qualifying tournaments and then have a choice of who to select? Or is there a hierarchy in place preventing that or how does it work?

    Leathan le leathan.... that brings me back . I'm not sure of the linguistic side of things but that's how I make sense of it
  20. OlympicIRL
    The io is pronounced as a slender vowel, as if the o doesn’t really exist.
  21. OlympicIRL
    Exactly that And Caolan is the male equivalent.
  22. OlympicIRL
    One of my colleagues is named Caoilfhionn
  23. OlympicIRL
    Pronounce it like E-fa (the first part is pronounced like the -ee in the word “see” if that makes sense?)
  24. OlympicIRL
    I will keep my fingers crossed for Ela in the WQTs and the other Poles too. It’s heart-breaking when you get so close to the quotas and just miss out. You would think at least a few of them can get over the line at the remaining qualifiers.
  25. OlympicIRL
    I didn’t see the fight, just the result so I honestly hope it was a fair result.
