The 2017 Worlds kick off today in spectacular fashion as Usain Bolt will race and Mo Farah will go for one last 10,000 gold on the five year anniversary of his first Olympic gold medal on the very same track.
To get you ready for the action, we recorded a 44 minute podcast this morning. With there only being a few morning sections, we hope to do near daily podcasts from London.

The marathons are Sunday - men at 555 am and women at 9:00 am ET. They will be shown live on NBCSN in the US. -
Over/under on when Mo starts the MoBot? 50 m from the finish? How early will he have it locked up?

What is with the 100m prelims/heats and entry lists? Explain please? The good runners aren't listed, do they only come in under 'Heats'?? I was trying to see which heat/time Bolt first shows up in

Clearly Bolt's not running as per the heat sheets...

the 100 'preliminaries' are only for people who haven't hit the standard (every country can send one athlete in any event who hasn't hit the standard, to achieve maximum representation).
bolt and everyone else who has hit the standard will be in the heats, later today. -
Why is there no option to pick the medalists in men's decathalon in the contest?

Without looking, I would bet this is the preliminary, preliminary round. Usually filled with "subpar" 10.4-11.0 runners from smaller countries that have to advance to the normal preliminary round. -
Please stand for the anthem of the USA! retrospective medal ceremony
