Just what the qualification for the marathon at the OG need, a big mass event done just for more people to do the qualifiying mark.......
 
 

Comparison with Rio 2016. Obviously this isn't final, many teams can still return or gain quotas.

I think Dunfee and other top racewalkers have been out of the loop for years. They knew their event was going to be cut, they should have tried to do everything they could in order to show that racewalking deserved one more event. What they did was continuing to oppose the introduction of any kind of technology that would have brought a bit more credibility to the judging and accepting to star in those ridiculous 1 km runner vs walker events. They should blame themselves before crying foul.

First time ever Eritrea qualifies for women's 10000 m.

I'm hearing that the Paris Organizing Committee are very, very keen on the cross-country proposal by World Athletics. They're pushing very hard for it.

A golf team event with a Match Play format would be amazing. It doesn't need new quotas and offers something completely different. I hope they asked that cause I can see it happening

To be honest, some changes aren't even bad. It's just others are REALLY BAD, so it overshadows other decent changes.
 
 
Another Race Walk event for women is needed. High Diving is fine, I wouldt mind it taking Artistic Swimmings spot tbh.
 
Ligthweigth rowing adds nothing to the games. Coastal rowing is a developed and entreteining sport completely different to anything already on. I support that change. Same thing with Sailing. I get people not liking "mixed events", but it kind of makes sense in Sailing, and it opens the door for other exciting boats.
Same thing for Mixed Skeet or mixed time trial, I can live with it being in the games.
 
Aything else, garbage.

Futselaar's finish in 2:11.30 AKA the Olympic limit:
 

By IOC rules, FINA had to focus more on fixing the umbalance issue at Artistic Swimming before trying to add something new. Same for FIG and Rythmic Gimnastics.
 
Why try to add aerobics or parkour when men can't still compete at one of their sports? At least FINA is, slowly, working on that and male artistic performers can compete at World or European championships.
I'm still waiting FIG does SOMETHING. We all know what would happend if an International Federation would directly refuse to let the one gender take part in an sport in any way........

In one hand I would love Cross Country in the summer olympics (I'm more of a road racing fan, rather than track). If they are gpoing to add it to the summer events they have to do it right. They should take 10000m out (cause nobody cares about it), an put a full race. That rellay doesn't make any sense.
 
 
HOWEVER, id rather had cross country relay than 4x400 mixed. So if they change those events, I would be happy.

Don't you dare touch the best race on the track :<
