Steiner 21.77 WL. Has done extremely well to maintain great form through her long season. The vaunted Gabby Thomas last in 22.47.

[trevorp]

3 women under 1:58 in the US trials. Mu run close by Ajee Wilson 1:57.16 to 1:57.23.

20.51 WL from Chase Ealey in wSP.

Also picked up on a 20.33 from Canadian Sarah Mitton.

Gabby Thomas struggling in her 200 semi. Seems her pulling out of New York earlier this month wasn't precautionary as she's been struggling with a hamstring injury. She scraped into the final but don't fancy her chances in the final unfortunately.

[Occasional Hope]

But that was just in the street, wasn't it? This was AT THEIR CHAMPS.

[Ursus]

6 men have now gone over 80m in the hammer, the most since the 7 in 2012. There are also a couple more over 79.85. WC could be lively.

Reigning discus World Junior Champion Mykolas Alekna, still only 19, threw 69m at the Lithuanian champs today.

Wow! Not discounting Stahl at all, but watching Alekna and Ceh in the coming years will be fantastic.

I remember that nasty assault on Bosse a while ago too.

Shocking breach of security at the French trials: Hurdler assaulted 20 minutes before race becomes champion despite ‘coughing up blood’ - Mirror Online

And Dai Greene won a Word Championship a while ago now, but a lot more recent than Akabusi.

[Runner88]

And yet Alastair Chalmers got the World qualifying standard making him by definition world class. But don’t let facts get in the way of your pessimism.

[RunUnlimited]

Ahh, thanks for clearing that up for me... I always imagined that the first three past the post rule meant that if those that did have the standard, but didn't get into the top three would be left out.
