7th August 1995 is the actual 30th anniversary. I hope it lives till then

qui, ce serait fantastique. - We've already had an Aussie woman raped by 5 men and two of our Olympic officials assaulted in an unsuccessful robbery attempt so some good news would be nice to hear

word from the inside is that Browning has had great uninterrupted training for the past 6 weeks and is easily the fastest he's been all season. Time (ie 2 weeks) will tell

I would have thought they would be over doing service in the Ukraine - only politicians' and oligarchs' kids get a free pass

as my old mum used to say "she's a bit chocolate boxy". I'm with you (maybe our age mate) - I like them to look real - like just after washing their face in the morning. If people are too concerned about how they look I always wonder how much is inside them to admire

amongst all the big guns getting ready to run all over Europe I see Christophe Lemaitre ran a season best to win a race in Germany o'night. 10.66 - I'm always happy to see he's running and would love to see him getting down around 10.3's

AA always wanted him in but as at closing of qualifying period he was just a few places behind the 56 qualifier limit for the 100m event. Now with 3 of the original 56 out for one reason or another he has moved up the list to become number 56 qualifier.

great news, thank you. Maybe they can honeymoon here in Sydney and start 2025 training here too. I'd show him the ropes. All the best to him

Good news for us here in Australia. Josh Azzopardi has been added to the Olympic Games individual 100m. He deserves it for his 2 x 10.15s here and recent 10.14 in Europe. He hasn't peaked yet and said after his call up yesterday they'll have to fast track it by a week now since he has been...

the altitude there at the track is 996 metres, just under the "altitude" limit. That's 3265 feet so that's why athletes flock there to get great times. Which is totally sensible if they're to add to their international points totals.

other Chaux-de-Fonds results: Dutch girl Nadine Visser and Poland's Pia Skrzyszowska both set PBs in a close 100m hurdles final, Visser improving her Dutch record to 12.36 (1.6m/s) and Skrzszowska 12.37. Simon Ehammer leapt 8.36m. Norwegian Henriette Jaeger, 21, took almost a second off her...

y yes, 0.3 behind McLaughlin now - Paris could be quite something

conditions must not have been great I guess. Our Australian relay team was 1/2 second slower than they've been running and Ireland's weather can never be counted on

I often recall that passage from Isaiah and the calling of good as evil and vice versa. I know as a christian that all who come to Christ in repentance will re-examine their lives. Otherwise what they have is a false belief. "We played the flute for you but you didn't dance" .... there are...

I'm glad he's cut that mullet. But after this interrupted season I'd be surprised if he approaches 10.10. But of course I'll hope for better. Unfortunately our relay anchor Josh Azzopardi was 57th in the rankings after his recent 10.14 and missed out on the individual event by one place. He'll...

impressive bow work. If we still had to go to war with them as our weapons today I imagine they'd be quite a bit better than 800 years ago

Patrizia is so good to watch. Good knee lift so she exerts quite some force onto the ground. Great leg cycling - compare her with Swoboda

Patrizia Van der Weken of Belgium just won the Paris Diamond League 100m in 11.06 with Swoboda in 3rd. She has run 11.10 or under now 8 times in less than a year. She's 24 years old. Better still, her 11.06 run tonight was into a 2.0m wind - better than her PB 11.00 which had a 2m following...

interesting re: Dobson, since their 400m record holder raced and won the 200m instead. Looks like Hudson-Smith will have a team-mate in Charlie Dobson for the 400m in Paris. So glad he's finally had an injury free preparation

that is interesting - the fastest human might get to the 55m mark as the greyhound crosses the 100m line. Unbelievable!

I see Jamaica has a new threat for world sprint dominance. There will be some great sprinting generally in Paris. I'd love to see someone knock Bolt off the records perch

Good to see the young man from Denmark hitting his straps. This year and the next worlds should see him peak in his career. Pleasantly surprised Volko ran that time. I hope the wind was negligable. He was in Browning's 10.01 heat 7 win at Tokyo and looked like he was running through syrup...

oops! yep, I've got it now - cheers

he's a good 6 ft (1.83m). In whose world is that short?

a small article on the now 22 year old Amy Hunt who ran the world 200m under 18 record of 22.42 before tearing her quadricep and doing an English Major at Cambridge University. She's just got down to a 11.12 and is back into the 22s for 200m. She was 3rd leg runner in GB's relay win in Rome and...
