Official 2023 Lausanne DL dicussion thread (Live reaction show to follow at 4:05 pm ET)

I'm a big Keely fan but I have to agree with you, anyway tactics are part of the package. No point in being 'good, apart from my tactics'.

So why were the other athletes so much closer to Keely than in Paris. No, even before the race started, Keely looked stressed. It's clear to me that, mentally ( because of the Commonwealth Games ) Mary is more of a problem for Keely than Athing.

Yeah Peacock is $5 a month and you get every DL, US Champs, some major marathons and you can watch actual TV shows too if thats your thing. 99% of the time in T&F streaming I feel like Im getting ripped off, but Peacock is a great deal if you are a fan of the sport. $20 and you pretty much cover the entire track season

Has to be Peacock premium as of today.

Not enough drip 💧 for Ingy

Crouser looking human last two outings. Does Kovacs have a shot next week??

All the DL meets are on Peacock. Just get Peacock and you never have to worry about Nord locations. 🦚

Are you serious? Because of Moraa’s tactics.

Another useless pacer

Seriously there's no excuse for these idiots with the lights right beside them

Slowing dramatically before every barrier is not a good trait for a steeplechase pacer.

He's the wrong sex for Keely to be interested.

Oh dear! If Mary "slowed Keely up", then Keely should have been able to blast the final 300m ( which was the strongest part of her race at the OIympics and the World's. ) No, it's clear - very clear-to see that Keely has a "head problem" with Mary.

My goodness, stepping on every single barrier... that was so painful to watch.

Almayew can really run to come second, but she has to learn to hurdle.

Australia! This works. I am in. Thanks.

Kipyegon was losing to Hassan from time to time before July 2021.

Although she had maternity leave in 2018 until May 2019.

This race was clear confirmation of what I thought - it's hard to win with Moraa (and probably with Mu too) in ~1:57 region. Pure tactics, slow race by Moraa (~0.7 from her PB while she was targeting sub 1:56 PB as was reported).

Times seem a little slower than expected so far. I wonder if the chilly temps are slowing things down a bit, especially in the sprints and middle distances.

Not overly optimistic for a fast time from Jakob later.

I know its been said but I'm a huge huge fan of the Nike gold medalist uniform and I wish other brands did it too. Fantastic for spectators and new watchers.

Still no SAFP or ETH appearances in any big events...
