Perfect time for MU to jump in and try to extend her vacation by winning the DL800m final for the bye.

That would involve actually racing some DLs outside of the States. Mu pulled out of Lausanne and Zurich is the last remaining DL pre finals.

Biggest impact is no extra spot for GB in the 800 with Keely expected to win the DL final. So 2 spots and a low margin of error for Reekie/Gill. I always wonder how her own training partners think because a bunch are up-and-coming 800m runners so this decision isn’t ideal for them.

Georgia Bell will step up and win the extra place for GB...Well maybe not but it will be worth it to see the reaction on here

If Sydney did this, y'all would call her stuck up and a terrible ambassador for the sport. We all know this is as real as the Lyles injury.

Don't bother with this nonsense narrative.

Hodgkinson has raced 55 times between the Tokyo and Paris OGs. SML has raced 29 times within the same timeframe.

Hodgkinson is a seasoned runner that actually competes year-round, globally, to promote her sport.

SML has competed outside the US 7 times in 3 years, and 5 of those races were in Paris.

Hodkinson can go out there and be terrible and nobody will care. Syd has to perform every time she touches the track. Completely different worlds.

The only people who care about SML are American track fans.
