Anyone know the story with the dark sand in the jumping pit?
The sand in the 1991 Worlds (the Powell vs Lewis classic) was light colored.
Looks like volcanic mix beach sand

I'm pretty sure the sand was light-colored at the beginning of the meet. I think they wet the sand because it is just fine glass and must be burning the skin after cooking in the heat there
man am I getting slaughtered in the LetsRun pickem contest.

That was the greatest LJ competition ever. Poor Carl Lewis had the best series of jumps, bar none, but was just a tad short of the win and the WR. Unbelievable competition.
Who was that woman in the yoga pants and baggy T-shirt? Almost looks like they grabbed one of the volunteers or someone off the street to fill up a spot

Yeah, 28+. Rough.
Nambundji ?
What's up with Harrison? Way off his PB. Noticed he is taped up a bit.
Gabby Thomas looking good.
Mboma - wow. Give her a couple of years and learn how to start and she'll challenge the WR. And she's even better at the 400?
Well, Mboma just ran a .5 second PR
The Gabby "Whereabouts" Thomas love fest continues. Hope she gets 4th in the final.

Yeah, he's not looking good. Wonder if the HJ took more out of him than he thought. This is the Olympics...
some of the runners in that heat looked... interesting. And even though Thomas is a smoke show, I still don't trust the dirty cheater. That must have been the cheater heat.

I put money on him medaling and he’s not producing so far.
Ok...Amoeba runs down Thomas...yeah it's a prelim but she was busted for whatever they call it and moved down from the 400. Thomas even tried to respond and couldn't keep her from passing.
Damn, that Gabby Thomas is a looker.
