Summer RIO 2016 - Athletics (Track & Road events) 12th to 20th Aug

[PoopingHindi]

A long way ahead of kenya in terms of
Doping. Why do you think Mo goes there?

who knows, maybe he likes the scenery?
or they have really quiet doorbells

its definitely not to meet Jama Aden or train with his group though

 

[Gerry4]

Didn't 6 out of the 8 finalists in the 100m at the World Champs last year previously serve doping bans? Something like that.

 

[Unstable]

Doping in swimming is worse than athletics.

AA's Oz athletes watch

Looking forward to Mitchell running in the 400m. Looks primed for this and while I don't think she'll make the final, should progress through to the Semis easily and run a strong race there. Lacaze and Hills could both make the final of the Steeplechase.

His interview was great, so glad he got a medal

 

[Biggie]

That's long from Wang

 

[Rob]

The steeple heats will be worth a look. All 3 Australians should be pretty competitive, both Lacaze and Hills have given the Africans a bit of trouble in the diamond league.

Red flagged the local. That judge is going to the pokey.

 

[JackNah_8]

[RussellEbertHandball]

Bugger is Ibarguen jumping? Not near a TV. How is her form? Are there heaps of Colombian there cheering her on?

What's the purpose of Preliminary Rounds in the 100m?

 

[JackNah_8]

The Greek girl just had a big jump, 14.43m

So tinpot nations can have representation.

I don't mind the idea as long as there are no embarrassing Eric the eel types competing. Should be a qualifying time of about 11 seconds.

 

[Rob]

Both Lacaze and Hills are through to the steeple final.

Not that you'd know if you watched Channel 7.
