It looks like Krawczuk doesn't have any injury cause he start today at 200m (he won gold) and later in relay. And talking about relay, very interesting squad of RKS Łódź: three middle-distance runner (including Adam Kszczot, another absence at this Championships) and one sprinter. Effect? Gold medal :d

Good to hear that, he deserved to have medal :d 

 

If I good remember last year (or two?) Kszczot also didn't start on 800m and started only in relay like this year, I wonder what is reason.

 

I'm surprised that Jaszczuk didn't win medal, 4th place is highly disappointed...

despite the inclement weather, earlier today Leonardo Fabbri scored an amazing 21.99m in the men's shot put at the Italian Nationals in Padua...:yikes:

 

he improved his PB by 40cm and his performance is the world no.2 (behind the 22.91m shot by Ryan Crouser) and the european no.1 this season...:bowdown:

 

unfortunately the awful weather did really influence in a negative way all the other results: Marcel Jacobs won the men's 100m in 10.10 (but with +3.3 wind) after Filippo Tortu pulled out just before the final, Luminosa Bogliolo easily won the women's 100m Hurdles in 13.03 (regular wind), Larissa Iapichino won her first senior Italian title in the women's Long Jump (but with a vey modest 6.32m and -1.7 wind), Gianmarco Tamberi won the men's High Jump with 2m28cm and finally, in absence of Davide Re (injured in the Stockholm DL race last week), Edoardo Scotti won the men's 400m in 45.77...

 

all the remaining events are not even worth mentioning...

Fragments from her run in the first 2 minutes of the video. She won the race almost 7 seconds ahead of the silver medalist :lol:

Makes me think about the Netherlands in the same event: the general level is not really very good at all, but apparently both you and we have one young and very talented girl making up for that :cheer: 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!
