800 Heat of Death on the track
800 Heat of Death on the track
Dragged hand....
His left arm hit back behind the 8m line
He was way out over 8 meters not even close to 7.78. It looked like a gold medal jump!
It looked like his left hand hit the sand back behind 8m area
Didn't get a chance to see the replay but I actually kind of hope that's the case (the L hand dragging). Would hate to see someone short changed by an official error.
The mark was a divot in the sand separate from the imprint his body made though. His left wrist stayed in the sand parallel to his body the entire way through the landing so it couldn't have been that little divot back at 7.78.
BERIAN MADE IT
I said it earlier, but I'll say it again. I'm watching the "track Feed"on the NBC sports app on apple TV. There are no announcers. No field events. And no commercials. Just shots of the stadium or the guys getting ready for the next race in between races. I highly recommend it.
Headed out now. Farah...thanks for getting me f'd up early on.
Semi Final #2
Kipketer wins and Berian second.
Aman out. Time to leave Oregon bro
My mistake. The left hand skipped off the sand before being dragged through.
Great run by Berian. Slowing down for 1:44.
crazy long jump, I'm very happy to see rutherford go down.
Heartbreaking for Lawson, that was one of the best long jump finals I've ever seen
Also berian made it out of quite the competitive heat. good stuff for him.
Berian through! Times have been fast, Murphy will definitely struggle to qualify on time.
Tuka must also be off the special sauce

It is slightly behind "live" since people posted about the fall before I saw it on this feed.
Boris proving that he is a smart racer
Reply looked incredibly close. Some shots it looked like his feet landed first a the wining spot. Others sort of look like his hand landed back first. That really sucks. Did he medal?
