Easy mistake to make. 😀😀

[Ursus]

A superb world record.

(In my eyes 6.20 is the indoor world record not THE world record. Indoors and out are 2 very different disciplines...

[Ursus]

69.81 PB in round 1 from Alekna. This could become very tasty.

[Ursus]

Some high class spearing in Stockholm. Peters 90+ again while Chopra usurps Helander for the longest PB under 90 with another NR of 89.94. 3 others over...

Agreed, although being the pessimist I am I’d already written her off for Eugene.

Hope I’m very wrong but I’m getting the vibes that...

[Ursus]

Just watched East’s throw for the first time. Definitely a lot to build on. He looks both decent sized and athletic (too often it’s one or the other)...

[Ursus]

Why is everything selection related so ruddy complicated?

I’ll wait until the final team is confirmed, but as it stands I’m warming up...

[Ursus]

It’s also uninspiring for athletes and spectators. Much better to hold any event in a smaller stadium where whatever crowd there is will be nearer the...

[Ursus]

Social media is definitely divisive. I’m not going to wade into that particular argument, suffice to say some use it very positively while others very...

Maybe, but flip side how many fantastic American athletes miss out because they can only send 3, while a load of just scraped the standard mediocre athletes...

[Ursus]

Times has a charming picture of Burgin vomiting after his race. Apparently it’s quite a regular thing for him. Is that normal?...

[Ursus]

Maybe McKinna’s on to something. All 3 20m women this year use rotational. Sarah Mitton’s comparatively small, but very dynamic. Her 20.33 is worth...

Maybe not Russia right now….....

5 under 20 in m200. Lyles 19.67 edging out Knighton by 0.02.

[Ursus]

20.51 WL from Chase Ealey in wSP.

Also picked up on a 20.33 from Canadian Sarah Mitton.

[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....

[Ursus]

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

[Ursus]

Didn’t see too much of the action today - just the first couple of rounds of the disc and a bit of jogging later on - nice to see Burgin looking good....

[Ursus]

That run from McLaughlin means she has 4 of the 5 fastest times in history.

Gunnell is now only the 11th fastest all time with the 10 ahead...

[Ursus]

Here it is. Made to look ridiculously easy....
