    LOL, yes I keep on getting my minutes and seconds mixed up

      Something bonkers about Charlie Dobson - he's now only ever raced 400m 5 times, he's run sub-46 every time and he's never not won a 400m race!!! And his 3 recorded relay splits on Power of 10 are 44.44, 44.30 and 43.75...

        He's just ran a 43.7 relay split and a 45.1 individual time in a race where he wasn't pushed, all after another season of injuries. Put him in a fast race next week and he's probably capable of getting down towards 44.6-44.7. With a good pre-season concentrating on 400m and if he stays fit, he could definitely have a chance of getting to Matt HS's level.

        There's a reason Iwan Thomas was saying he thinks Dobson could hold the British 400m record.

        Charlie Dobson has been hailed as Britain's brightest hope at 400m, a distance he has only run twice.

      Ian Hodge notes ... 'Great to see world champs 8th placer Jess Judd take 6 secs off her 5000m best tonight with 14:51.53 (seventh quickest Brit all time). Always gives 100%'

      To my mind she really has taken up the mantle of Jo Pavey for this generation ... ​

        I always felt like Jess belonged at shorter distances than this, but she loves what she’s doing and is having solid success. Would love to see her medal at the Europeans

          Yes, I do wonder sometimes if she should have stuck at 800, maybe she could have cracked on there.

              Just read from t and f forum of the death of Peter Matthew's peacefully. Every fan of athletics knows of his majestic contribution to our sport. Glad to hear my old friend Stan Greenberg is still ok

                Really really sad news. A wonderful man, a statistician without peer and a first class announcer. Had the great pleasure of working with him on his annual rankings and also commentating alongside him on a couple of occasions. A great loss.

                Wonder if she can keep it going into next year
                Another pleasing pb.

                  Yes, good progress which is always nice to see, but with five British women faster than that this year, Revee is still going to struggle to make GB teams.

                  One thing to bear in mind with Revee is she beat out everybody in the trials for Tokyo 2021 including Katie Snowdon & there were 5 faster than her that year as well. I don't think even now with her revising her PB three times in quick succession we have seen the last of her improvements. She has not had any of the benefits bestowed on our other ladies running paced Diamond League's etc.

                  That's true, she could beat out someone better (on PBs) in a trials race, but she'll have to get the standard of 4.02.50 to be considered.

                Kerr and Mills first and second in the Fifth Avenue Mile, while Jemma Reekie wins the women's race with Melissa C-B in third.

                  Molly Caudery wins in Germany with 4.70. Sh retired after one attempt at a pb height of 4.76.

                  Holly B continues to struggle with a best of 4.48.

                      Mo ran a lot better than I was expecting.

                    Charlotte Purdue an excellent 2.22.17 in Berlin as noted elsewhere.

                    In the men's race Scotland's Weynay Ghebreselasie ran a 2 min pb of 2.09.50.
