This past weekend the 2019 IAAF World Relays were held in Yokohoma, Japan. It was the first time the World Relays were not held in the Bahamas. And since the relays were in the early morning hours of the US we assume many of you missed them.
We’ve got video highlights of all the finals below starting with the new mixed gender 2x2x400.
Talk about the action on our fan forum / messageboard. MB: Are you kidding me? USA manages to lose both men’s 4 x 400, women’s 4 x 400 and men’s 4 x 100 at World Relays.
Donavan Brazier and Ce’Aira Brown Win the New and Bit Crazy 2x2x400
Each runner ran 400, then their teammate ran 400, and then the process was repeated, and men and women could go in any order which made this interesting.
