The Official Doha Diamond League Thread 5/11/2012 8:26AM Reply | Return to Index | Report Post
So Diamond league returns tonight in Doha, Qatar. You can watch on Universal sports or BBC red button.

Preview & Startlists: http://www.letsrun.com/2012/doha-0510.php

Russell Brown chasing the A standard in a stacked 1500 featuring Kaki, Kiplagat, Kiprop, Komen.

Rudisha runs the 800m. Watch out for the Czech Holusa, I'm expecting big things from him this year.

The 100m has Powell, Carter, Gatlin & Rodgers. Could see some fast times there.

The women's 3k has a host of 8:30 Africans.

Men's 3k possibly the race of the night with 5 guys that have gone sub 7:30, including King Kenny Bekele.

Any predictions gentlemen? This is where the big boys start to come out to play.

So, if I miss the live part on USports, should I buy it to watch it after or will the videos be up all over letsrun for free?

The videos of some races will probably turn up somewhere. Can't guarantee it though.

I've never used Universal but I've heard good things about it. If you use the code “C2LTRACK”, you will receive $5 off the package. (I've just taken this from another thread but I assume it works)

It's free on the BBC website but you will need a UK proxy to get it to work.

There was a B 800 before the live broadcast won by a French guy Pierre Bosse in 1:45. According to IAAF he is 20 today. Nice birthday PR!

1:56.9 for Jelimo. Looks like Semenya might have to start trying a little.
