    British athletics, which i guess i am a member of via english athletics which i am definitely a member of (subs overdue at the moment, lol), are a disgrace.

    The whole governance of athletics is rotten to its core and its top.

    It is appalling that all these mandarins milk the hard working individual athletes and the coaches at the grass roots level.

    Hi Seb.

    I completely agree. Ever since they intervened to hush up the Wikileaks on Sir Doped Farah, I've had zero respect for them. No integrity at all

    re: florence 2019 was short for everyone

    Exactly correct.

    If you look at the "FLORENCE MARATHON" segment on Strava, there are very few entries for 2019.

    This is because anyone outside about 2:40 pace was affected by the gas leak.

    All the faster runners *thought* they ran the correct course, but they ran only one side of a market, whereas every runner in 2017/2018 ran 3 sides of the same market place.

    You're right, this is very perplexing, as Purdue is the best supported athlete of the three.

    Another strange move from BA!

    Today is the self-imposed deadline for British Athletics to provide their reasoning behind not including her.

    No one has ever been deselected, so expect them to dig their heels in deep with some well-thought-out boilerplate (oxymoronic, I know).
