dcro 10,179 Posted September 5, 2020 #313 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Not just a Russian, she is also a convicted doper and a well-known case of a running race walker. She should be uneligible for any kind of records. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,557 Posted September 5, 2020 #314 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Lashmanova, that's long ago I heard that name. Basically the whole thing started there (at least the Chegin-saga) if I'm not mistaken 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!

Monzanator 3,595 Posted September 5, 2020 #315 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Lashmanova was like the new sensation... in 2012! It's been so many years I thought she simply retired after her ban and the whole Russian race walking went belly up since then anyway (like the whole event in general). Nobody cares about race walking apart from Latin America & Eastern Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in Russia the word “ban” is interpreted very loosely. Plenty of training facilities and domestic competitions held in the likes of Mezhdurechensk, Votkinsk & Yessentuki, where the eye of Lord Sauron never looks. dcro and PHI2019 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also had 94.84 m, which is also better than anyone else except Zelezyn has ever thrown. Vetter said that it would have gone over 100 m if it wouldn’t have been in a closed stadium. Edit: He improved his own German record by 3.32 m. I feel really sorry for him, he can only lose at this point. Unless he wins Olympic gold next year everyone will say that he messed up. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
