How many last ever races is that for Mo now?

[LuckySpikes]

Live streams/broadcasts for Saturday 9th September to Sunday 10th September:

On BBC1 at 12.30pm on Saturday there's a half-hour programme, Mo Farah's Last Mile ... "Sir Mo Farah revisits his incredible career with fellow athlete Sir Brendan Foster as he prepares for his final race."

Saturday to Sunday

• Finnish Relay Championships (Turku, FIN) - A lot of Finland's best sprinters are entered at this meeting with all sorts of relays

Saturday

• European Road Mile (Brașov, ROU) - The Men's race is definitely the better of the two for this inaugural edition with a decent field that includes Mohad Abdikadar Sheik Ali (ITA; 3:33.8 PB in Padova last week), Brian Fay and a couple of guest athletes such as Garrett O'Toole (USA)
• Ivan Ivančić Memorial (Zagreb, CRO) - Men's Shot Put by the city fountains as part of the Boris Hanžeković Memorial Conti Tour Gold meeting; There's a loaded field for this with many of the best putters bar Crouser

Sunday

• Brașov International 10km (Brașov, ROU) - WA Elite Label race; The latest entrant info is a couple of weeks old but these (separate M + W) races are likely to be loaded. They certainly were last year with 3 men running sub-27 and 3 women going under 30:40. Expected to head this year's line-ups are the likes of Weldon Langat (2nd last year in 26:55), Edward Zakayo and in the Women's race, Agnes Ngetich (6th Budapest WCh 10,000) and Esther Borura (30:15 PB). Sam Harrison is also entered
• Great North Run (Newcastle-upon-Tyne to South Shields, GBR) - Half Marathon; There's been some high-profile withdrawals in both races so the Men's will likely be billed as Mo Farah versus Muktar Edris. There's also a quartet of good Japanese athletes and Ireland's Efrem Gidey making his HM debut. In the Women's race Peres Jepchirchir & Sharon Lokedi head the field that also includes Purdue, Markovc and Japan's Wakana Itsuki (70:23 PB) wearing the terrific black and yellow kit of Kyudenko
• International Pole Vault for Women (Beckum, GER) - WA Continental Tour Challenger meeting; There's a good line-up of 15 women for this including McTaggart, Caudery, Svabikova, Bradshaw & Chevrier
• Boris Hanžeković Memorial (Zagreb, CRO) - WA Continental Tour Gold meeting
• 5th Avenue Mile (New York City, USA) - Road Miles; Josh Kerr heads a good line-up for the Men's race but it's the Women's race that's really loaded with 10 women who've run sub-4 including Jess Hull, Reekie, Snowden, Courtney-Bryant, Hiltz, Nozomi Tanaka, Elle St. Pierre and Sarah Healy. This stream is dead easy to watch for anyone in the UK

The next major post will be on Wednesday for the start on Thursday of the four-day Japanese University Team T&F Championships (usually more loaded than their Individual Championships and there's excellent streaming coverage) and hopefully also for the Ibero-American U18 Championships and Brazilian U23 Club Championships, both starting on Friday.

Live streams/broadcasts for Friday 8th September:

Friday

• UK 5km & Mile Road Championships incl British Trials for World Road Running Championships (Gateshead / Newcastle-upon-Tyne, GBR) - Last week's Big Half winners, Jack Rowe & Calli Thackery, are both back in the 5km here with Rowe saying he'd prefer to run the 5km in Latvia on 1st October. Others entered in the Men's 5km include Tom Mortimer, Osian Perrin & Henry McLuckie. It's a good Women's 5km field that also includes Nuttall, Eloise Walker, Nesbitt, Quirk & Ockenden. The Men's Mile includes Adam Fogg, Elson & West. However, the Women's Mile is no longer on the timetable. With a chance to run in a World Championships it's very, very poor if they couldn't raise a field for that
• Zagreb City Challenge (Zagreb, CRO) - M & W Long Jump in the city square; Part of the Boris Hanžeković Memorial Conti Tour Gold meeting; There's fairly good line-ups for this, 7 athletes in each field, including Sawyers, Gardasevic & Tiffany Flynn in the Women's and Gayle, Will Williams, Konate & Adcock in the Men's
• Memorial van Damme - Brussels Diamond League (Brussels, BEL) - If you want to watch some of the field events before the main TV window, Belgian TV are broadcasting from 6.15pm UK time (VPN needed)

Live streams/broadcasts for Wednesday 6th September:

Wednesday

• Palio Città della Quercia (Rovereto, ITA) - WA Continental Tour Silver meeting; There's really good fields across the board (not a weak one amongst them) with quite a lot of the athletes who competed in Bellinzona also competing here. It's hard to pick the stand-out events but the Women's 800 looks like it will be a another good one including Hurta-Klecker, Vivian Chebet Kiprotich, Shanahan, Bello, Coiro, Abigail Ives & Yarigo amongst others. A total of 14 Brits are entered here, also including Alex HW, Hannah Nuttall. Tom Gale & Molly Caudery
• Memoriał Wiesława Maniaka (Szczecin, POL) - WA Continental Tour Challenger meeting; This is always a nice little meeting with a good atmosphere. The line-ups are decent and the Men's Shot Put is the strongest with Walsh, Otterdahl, Steen & Sinancevic included. There's a combined competition & prize money for both the Men's and Women's 100 & 200 hence why so many of the athletes are doubling here; In all, there's 6 Brits due to compete including Amy Hunt (200) and Charlie Dobson (400) although Laviai Nielsen is double-entered with Rovereto

Sorry, no teaser notes tonight except to say ... If you don't have a VPN you can still watch ISTAF Berlin (live) and Padova (on-demand) without any geo-blocking. ISTAF isn't what it used to be but the fields are still good. The Padova meeting is one of the top Bronze meetings and Monday's Bellinzona meeting is always very good with a cracking atmosphere. The Czech Club Championships have good domestic fields entered as well as several good foreign athletes based in Czechia such as Viktoria Forster (SVK), Majd Eddin Ghazal and ... Haruka Kitaguchi ! The streams produced by the Czech federation are always very good.
