Not yet available on demand at the above link. The latest 1 hr 43m video includes all the events at that meeting up to, but not including, the 5000m.
The 5000 was definitely streamed live. I tuned in but the stream was buffering a lot so I decided to watch it later instead.

[LuckySpikes]

Still not available on demand. Maybe they had problems streaming - that might explain why I was getting bad buffering when I tried to watch.

Live streams/broadcasts for Wednesday 12th May to * Saturday 15th May:

* There will be a separate post on Thursday evening for all the other events streaming this weekend.

Wednesday

• Men's international 5000m (Bergamo, ITA) - see post above
• Meeting Desafío Nerja (Nerja, ESP) - Mid-distance & field meeting; Good fields in the track events here. Katir, Oumaiz, Hassaous & Bedrani (FRA) are amongst the M 1500 entries. Marta Perez & Irene Sanchez Escribano are in the 2000. Ignacio Fontes will attack Fermin Cacho's 2:16.13 NR in the 1000, and Esther Guerrero will try to break Mayte Martínez's 2:33.06 NR for the same distance

Thursday

• Meeting International Città di Savona - Memorial Giulio Ottolia (Savona, ITA) - European Area Permit Meeting; Some decent line-ups here. The highlight looks to be the W 200 with Dasher, Lalova-Collio & Dobbin. Bogliolo vs Kozak (HUN) in the W 100H. Pozzi, Ta Lou, Lansiquot & Tuka are also competing

Thursday to Saturday

• Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) Championships (Duluth, MN, USA) - Quite a strong NCAA D2 conference with 2 Women's teams in the national top 12 (Minnesota State #8 & U-Mary #12) and in the Men's national rankings, Minnesota State #22

Next major post tomorrow evening (Thu 13th) for the weekend's events including Sunday's European Race Walking Team Championships, Saturday's WACT Bronze "Track Meet" in California and Day 3 of the Pac-12 Championships.

The Italian Federation were very quick off the mark to upload the broadcast recording of the Savona meeting - less than an hour after the broadcast finished. It's at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9h7PVGkOA1c

The post for the weekend's live streaming is coming in an hour or two.

Live streams/broadcasts for Friday 14th May to Monday 17th May:

What with FloTrack and ESPN channels that we can't access for free, we're denied all the big NCAA invitationals and most of the best conference championships. However, this weekend we can watch the final day of two of the "Power 5" conference championships - the SEC and the Pac-12.

There's 3 Japanese regional Corporate Championships streaming this weekend. I've included the best one of the three - East Japan. Since it's the job of athletes in Japan to run for their company, and since there's such depth in Japan (including East African athletes) these regional championships are often pretty loaded and that's certainly the case with the East Japan championships this weekend.

Thursday to Saturday

• The ongoing Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC) Championships (Duluth, MN, USA) - see two posts above
• Mountain West Conference Championships (Clovis, CA, USA) - NCAA D1 conference; Actually taking place on Friday to Sunday for us due to the time difference; A pretty good conference that includes the likes of New Mexico, Boise State, Air Force and Colorado State

Saturday to Sunday

• East Japan Corporate Championships (Kumagaya, JPN) - See notes above; Sorry, I don't have the time to translate the startlists for this!

Saturday

• Laufszene Invitational Run (Chemnitz, GER) - 5km & 10km road races; OK fields it seems for this
• Lange Laufnacht (Karlsruhe, GER) - Mid-distance meeting - 800s through to 5000s & Steeples; This meeting has been a nice addition to the circuit in the last few years; There are international fields this year but not as international or strong as they usually are; Nevertheless, there are some good athletes competing; I'm liking the look of the Women's 5000 'A' race with Koster, Dattke, Euro U20 champ Klara Lukan, van Es, Hendel, Lau, van Accom & Senechal
• Memoriał Zygmunta Szelesta (Warsaw, POL) - This is usually a decent international meeting; The entry lists only cover Poles and Polish-based athletes (incl Peinado in the W PV) and there's some good athletes listed; No idea about the international entrants though because there's absolutely no other info about this meeting on the net!
• Mid Summer Track Night (Vienna, AUT) - Austria have expanded their "Top Meetings" series to 6 meetings this year (from 4 in 2019) and it looks like they'll all be live streamed - good news because, in the past, live coverage of Austrian meetings has been spotty; There's quite a lot of nations represented at this meeting and some decent fields, e.g., Tapper, Pesiridou, Schrott & Loncarek in the W 100H; The Czechs are travelling in force and making the W 800 look like the Czech Championships final! The morning session referred to in the linked preview is the Austrian Steeplechase Championships - I haven't included the stream for that session
• Track Meet (Irvine, CA, USA) - WA Continental Tour Bronze meeting; Some very good fields including various Brits; The W 1500 sees Jemma Reekie & Katie Snowden against the likes of Hull, S Johnson, Rowbury, McGee, McLean, Grace, Coburn & Bishop; Unfortunately, all the mid/long-distance races outside the TV window are Pay-Per-View ($5.99 for the weekend). They've said though that these races will be uploaded to YouTube later in the week.

Sunday

• European Race Walking Team Championships (Poděbrady, CZE) - on a 1km loop; Even in an Olympic year these biennial championships are a big deal for the top athletes, as evidenced by the stellar fields assembled here; Already one of the world's top RW meetings, Poděbrady will host these championships for the next 3 editions; Much more pleasant than your usual narrow up-and-down-the-road 'loop', this event takes place on a loop in the park; The morning races (M 50km, W 35km & U20 10k's) have some crossover but in the afternoon both the Men's & Women's 20km races have their own space
• Pac-12 Conference Championships Day 3 (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - NCAA D1 conference; The preview linked to in the document is pretty good, highlighting the top athletes

Monday

• SEC Championships Day 3 (College Station, TX, USA) - NCAA D1 conference; Probably the strongest of all the conferences, there's a lot of NCAA title contenders competing here

All the links & details at https://www.dropbox.com/s/fodcbs6m28...05-17.odt?dl=0

Next major post maybe on Monday 17th or, if not, on Tuesday 18th for Wednesday's Ostrava Golden Spike and the Castiglione meeting.

There's also a WACT Bronze meeting in the States today - just sprints, hurdles & field. That's behind a paywall but I'll link to some race videos, hopefully tomorrow.

Wednesday

• Ostrava Golden Spike (Ostrava, CZE) - WA Continental Tour Gold meeting; The first hour of the Main Programme is on Czech TV before the WA stream starts at 5pm; The preceding National Programme that includes the international Men's 10,000 (Jacob Kiplimo etc) is being live streamed on YouTube
• International Meeting of Castiglione Della Pescaia (Castiglione Della Pescaia, ITA) - European Area Permit Meeting; Decent meeting including a couple of big names, Mekhissi-Bennabad in the Steeple & Marie-Josee Ta Lou in the 100 & 200

All the links & details at https://www.dropbox.com/s/y1g95bd0kz...05-19.odt?dl=0

Next major post on Thursday evening for a stacked long weekend that, as well as Gateshead, includes 4 Continental Tour meetings (Dessau, Andujar, Rehlingen & Boston), a mid-distance meeting in New York, the Kurpfalz Gala (Weinheim) and presumably the Loughborough International, though that's not yet listed on Vincosport.

[LuckySpikes]

In the latest document above, there's now a link to videos of the Finals & 'A' races from yesterday's WACT Bronze meeting in the States.

Confirmed live streaming of the national programme at Ostrava (including the international M 10,000m) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckzXSI7SmN4

[Stew-Coach]

some very good match ups in this.
Interested personally to watch Lina and Jessie (1st race back this side of the pond for Lina after a successful period in the states)
Fred Kerley is down for the 100 and 200 (Leaving late to open up over 400m)
And of course the w200 with Richardson is interesting (she tweeted stating she was bored in Ostrava and not impressed lol)

[LuckySpikes]

Just to be clear, this YouTube link is for all the action up to 4pm UK time. See the latest document above for the streaming links for the Main Programme.
