Brits got us beat on 2 things and 2 things only

Sam 2 years ago
UK sports teams never really line up with national borders. It's just the way these things go. Athletes from Anguilla have as much right to compete for the UK as anyone else. It's governed by the UK. Ciara Mageean could by the UK's best female 1500m runner if she wanted but prefers to represent Ireland. You win some, you lose some.

Ok. Did u just see what happend behind Kipyegon on the insane milerun; "Behind her, every single person in the race set a personal best.

Ladies Night: Gidey vs. Chebet, Muir vs. Gang of Four in Stockholm

It’s going down yo. Will Gidey’s first race against Beatrice Chebet since World XC evoke Bathurst PTSD and elicit a case of Stockholm Syndrome? Will “The Thunder From Down Under” Jessica Hull shake and rattle the wraithlike German Koko, or will the Viking Grovdal take up Jakob’s sword and raid the podium?Can everyone’s favorite Scottish lass stave off half of Addis Ababa in the 1500, or are you investing in Birke’s stocks?
