UK Outdoors June 2022

Well then.... Looks like Keely Hodgkinson has got another one to think about other than Mu come Eugene... Moraa is dangerous new element to add to the mix in an ultra competitive 800m field.

[Occasional Hope]

None of the British athletes is looking great in Stockholm. Ugen and Sawyers down the field in th LJ.

[Grassmarket]

All in a heavy training block, of course.

[Occasional Hope]

Ooh, Ugen proves me wrong with a fab 6.81.

Spoke too soon, Ugen 6.81 SB for the lead

[RunUnlimited]

Lorraine Ugen with a great jump of 6.81m SB in the LJ!

[Grassmarket]

Gets the win!

[MysteryBrick]

Ugen has always been phenomenally talented but supremely (and indeed, irritatingly) inconsistent. Maybe she can get it right in Eugene.

[trickstat]

Given 6 jumps, she tends to get at least one decent one in. Trouble is, in the qualifying round she'll only get 3 so she's always a worry.

[Occasional Hope]

Dina back in form at last.

[RunUnlimited]

She scraped and clawed for that one, great win against the much-improved Kambundji. And I'm convinced that she is (like many of the athletes competing here) coming off heavy training. I'm predicting something pretty special in Eugene.

[Occasional Hope]

I feel much more optimistic than I did at the weekend. a medal is still going to be a challenge, though,

[Chafford1]

Great bend by DAS, still not quite there in the final 50m but a good battling win against Kambundji in 22.37.

[marilyn1]

A challenge... a great challenge. I predict no medal in the 200m for DAS

[marilyn1]

I already said after the Kenyan trials, Moraa looks a medallist and has a sub 51 400m in her locker.! Keeley was poor tonight but I do not pay attention to this race as far as she is concerned.

[marilyn1]

Hmm, not great from Keeley. 🤨

I await the Prescod fans predicting his level of performance in Eugene. I predict he does not make the final. Of course, miracles happen

[marilyn1]

Painfully grumpy and negative. Can't you just switch him off

You mean doesn't agree with your constant flag waving nonsense. The cancel culture children should go and form their own Forum, and leave us all to talk sense about world and GB talent.

[MysteryBrick]

Cancel culture children? To much Daily Mail, I feel.

[Sprintfan]

You cannot tar me with the same brush as those you criticise. Very often those that are continuously critical of other are deeply unsure of themselves. Do you need help? Or are you, as I believe a lost cause?

[Walsh7]

Marilyn1, you're so negative, cantankerous, and curmudgeon like. You must be Philipo's twin sister!
