My proposal for the mixed event for the Olympic Games: It would be a 1m/1w team, during 3 days of competition and woukd race a total of 50km. Multiple day events are common in RaceWalking, with a event in China hosted yearly being super popular. The four first events would work as qualification for the last event, a modern-penthatlon style. First day: men's and women's 35km race walk. Different qualification for sex. First place gets 0 penality seconds, 2nd gets 20, 3rd gets 45... and so on. Second day: rest day Thrid day: 5km time trial. Different sex qualification. Same puntuation as the first event. Fourth day: 2x2x5km rellay. Here is where the total penalty seconds "won" in the 4 prior events get added. The relay starts in the order of the time penalty, just like in modern pentathlon. Every 5k theres a racer change. First athlete to cross the finish line, wins, and so on. Something like this would have 50km raced by every athlete, a 4 day event, a mixed event, different types of races and a "chase" style finale already proven a hit in modern pentathlon or the EuropeanGames DNA event.

A lot of countrys (Spain, Portugal, Ukraine...) hosted 35km women national championships these year instead of 50km cause timeline for the Standar for 2022 world championship was already open. Some of the spaniards already have the standar but it's imposible to find a world list and I dont know why.......

Anyone knows if there's a "Road to Tokyo" style page for "Road to Eugene"'??? I can't find anything. Also, somewhere to look at the women's 35km toplist results? It's nowhere to be found and the qualification for that event already started.

Would it stay, though? Caught cheating with the shoes...

Jon Rahm OUT cause of COVID. For some reason, they dont let Spain anyone in his place...

+1 Reallocation quota in Women's Skate due to a positive COVID from another athlete

US would only had 3 women in individual since Coco's withdrawall happend after closing the list. Her place went to the best placed only doubles player already in Japan, #137 ranked Renata Zarazúa from Idk who replaces Coco in doubles, but considering Riske and Brady are there, I imagine one of them would play with Melichar.

-1 in athletics. Irene Sánchez-Escribano (Women's 3000stp.) injured.

Equestrian OUT. Roller Skating IN. Karate/Breaking OUT. Obstacle Racing IN. Weighlifting OUT. Baseball5 IN. I would love Basque Pelota back at the Olympics, but I tried to be realistic.

More Men's 100 universiality quota changes: to men's 200m to men's 110 hurdles And Women's 100m universiality quota changes: quota changed to Mulern Jean in women's 100 hurdles

According to wikipedia, there are at least 33 only double athletes in the men's category.

Yup, that's weird. If they are on, a lot of couples had to withdrew before. Like Seguel-Guarachi, a couple, a couple......

My bad, I though a country can only had 2 athletes in doubles. But is 6 in total so it doesn't mather cause doesn't have 4 singles.

So WA changed some things around according to this: https://www.worldathletics.org/competitions/olympic-games/the-xxxii-olympic-games-athletics-7132391/athletes?urlSlug=the-xxxii-olympic-games-athletics-7132391&competitionGroup=olympic-games&disciplineCode=&sexCode=&countryCode= is now on men's 800. in women's 1500, in womens 400 hurdles, and in men's 1500, in 110 hurdles. doesn't have a female listed anymore, and is still in 100m. I don't know if any other changes where made.

How can qualify Marcelo Demoliner, Marcelo Melo and Bruno Soares just for the doubles tournament? Doesn't make sense at all with the qualifying process

WA doesn't make sense at all. I just found the case of D'Jamila TAVARES (a not-so-good 3000stp athlete) given an universiality quota in 800m when the country has a much better long jumper in Agate DE SOUSA that also is a 11.81 sprinter (much better than most of the girls that got universiality quotas)...... MAKE IT MAKE SENSE....

There's a weird thing with Martinez, he's still fighting to be selected and could end up in the games still.

We are such clowns....... I dont trust our cycling federation for anything, so I'm going to be nervous until I saw the riders at the starting line lmao Thanks!

Sorry I'm lost. I'm not understanding. So today was the last day to confirm the quotas? But not necesarilly name them? And in that case, when's the deadline to name the athletes?

So, at least they had to name the five today. Then you can do small changes but today at least they had to name the vast mayority of the team. Well, I just hope we didn't loose the quotas....

Yes I was looking at the qualification process just now..... And we didn't name our team lmao. Do we lose our quotas? or the deadline changed? Cause I don't trust our federation, it's not the first time they mess up with things like this (we lost chance to qualify in Track in Rio due to a similar mistake...)

Does anyone know when the last day to name the Olympic squad is? Spain hasnt decided the team jet and apparently they are waiting at least a week more to decide. But I dont know when's the last day is for naming athletes...

And I don't know why not give invitations to the marathon. They gave just 1 to a athlete who probably is going to end like at least 25 minutes behind everyone. Invite 3/4 more athletes, so they can form a small "pack" in the back of the race and run with each other and no just one, cause then it's going to be too obvious. And is the easiest to allocate athletes cause always is going to be an athlete with the olympic standard that struggles and goes over 3 hours for the women, and 2:30 for the men. for the men all have decent marathon runners. And for the women. It creates a decent secondary field that is not going to "humilliate" themselves in the track.

I dont get why just put those athletes in their events. You're going over the limit want it or not, at least gave the best athlete of each country a try. I read thta the athlete their federation propose where all marathonians and WA rejected their quota and asked them to invite their best 100 athlete instead.
