Obiri 14:21.75, Hassan 14:22.34 new European record!
Obiri 14:21.75, Hassan 14:22.34 new European record!
Top white guy honors!!!!!!
What does he get for that?! Extra money?! A higher placing?!
That's not a real thing we need to track. We can be excited about his time all the same.
Was that really a 19s pb for Hassan? And European rec too.

She didnt run many 5000 before so yes.
Why does Molly Huddle still run track? Thought she retired from that.
One quick thought before the 100m begins: Why has the coverage completely ignored Arthur Cisse? Admittedly, I don't don't expect him to win, but his SB/PB is only a few hundredths off what we might expect for the winning time.
Great run by Filip. His second 3:32 in the last few weeks, both runs just tenths off his PR. He is ready to pop a big one in Monaco. 3:30 and Jakob at 3:32.
Huge run for Stewy. Buster 2.0 indeed

maybe they knew he'd run a 10.22??
Surprisingly good pacemaking from Williams as opposed to the normal trainwrecks we've seen this year

Ok, then are you going to yell at the post before this one that talks about top European records? Why even have national records by your rationale?
I mean they are all arbitrary categories. I'd argue genetics is a bigger factor than place of birth in athletics.
Total idiot.
Look at the steeple. Tehre is nothing under the water barrier. I thought it was a rule you were supposed to have plants or a screen under the barrier. It's really hard to do without some perspective. ANyone know if it's a rule?
