Very true my friend. The British Team is not only a joy to watch, but very talented as well. It's too bad they also have so many injuries. To name a few, Simeon Williamson, H.A.A. and Kilty to name just a few. Williamson and Kilty are out for the whole year and Harry is out for quite a while too. The British are very white friendly in track. Something I wish the US could be more like.

yep, if he took this up seriously only 6 months ago he's got some future. He DOES have about three or four young Aussies to overcome though LOL

Although australia is fast becoming a multi-cultural sewer, its good to have a respect for the past.
The only athlete to win gold at the olympics over all three sprints (100m/200m/400m) was Elizabeth Cuthbert-australia; winning the 100/200 in 1956 and the 400m in 1964(the first year it was offered for women).

When the media in australia promote non-white athletes, dont get warm fuzzy feelings mastermulti, remember the great real australians.

now here this! now here this! Cause it's the last time I'll bother to respond to your angry nonsense!

I wouldn't call a black a ******* any more than I'd call you a mongoloid! Why the hateful undertones? In my experience of rascists it's the poor whites who are fearful and disenfranchised who stir up this pot.

"When the media in australia promote non-white athletes, dont get warm fuzzy feelings mastermulti, remember the great real australians."

Not sure how to interpret this, um, sentence. The original AUSSIES are very black as it happens and the more we promote them in sports the better don't you think? . We expat poms forced our way in and I'm aware enough to know I've been a beneficiary of that. So I hope over the years we can make it up to them by helping them feel there's still room for them here.
And guess what... I thought that up all by myself....education and conscience working in unison is a godsend.. and I didn't even consult my zionist masters about what I should think(sheesh!)

Don't bother to respond with all your bile and your conspiracist theories ... I won't be expending any energy but for this ONE post OK???
Repeat, only post in response to your drivel OK YURI ??
Life's just too short!

M. Rooney drops his second sub 45 of the season to win the gold at the UK Champs. The winds have been bad all day so the conditions were far from ideal. Look at the margin of victory. He has to be the favorite heading to the Euro Champs next month.

Laura Turner won both the 100 &amp; 200 at the UK Championships. Congratulations. What a performance. Hoping she can increase her personal bests in the near future!

I was sad to see Andy Turner get beat in the 110 High Hurdles Finals. What a close race but still a solid time by Andy and he will be on the UK Squad for the Euro Champs.

To go along with Unger running a 10.14 wind legal, his german teammate Sebastian Ernst ran a 20.38 to win the 200 yesterday. This is tied for the european lead. Very nice race. It was also good to see Robert Herring finally go under 21 seconds as he has been struggling.

Another nice result was Artur Noga of Poland running a wind legal 13.29 in Eugene, Oregon against very fine competition. He is progessing nicely.

Over in Oregon, Andrew Wheating didn't win the Bowerman Mile, but he showed that he might develop into a competitor to be reckoned with internationally, as he ran a 3:51.74 mile, crushing the school record held, since 1984, by Olympic champion Joaquin Cruz (who in fact won his Olympic gold that same year). It's a truly outstanding time for a college senior or a runner of any age. Unfortunately, the bar is set extremely high right now, and he didn't win the race.

In the other mile at the Pre Classic, the International Mile, another young'un, Australia's Ryan Gregson, blazed a 3:53 for the win, and Oregon runner A.J. Acosta ran an excellent second. I don't know if Gregson has even turned 20 yet.

So we've got a lot of potential with these milers, but, honestly, to win the big events, they are going to have to learn not to race like Europeans (tactically, waiting on a kick), because Kenyans go all out from the opening gun, every race, and finish ten seconds faster than you would see in a typical European sit-and-kick race. Wheating and Gregson are showing fantastic ability, but this was the first genuinely fast race Wheating ever ran. In the past, his success has always come in tactical races. The question is whether he and Gregson are ready to junk their comfortable American-European tactics forever, grit their teeth, run so hard they want to puke, and take on the Kenyans.

Hicham ran this style too. Especially after his disaster in Atlanta when he tried to run a tactical race and tumbled during the build up to the sprint.

I wonder who's faster between Gillick, Rooney, and Borlee. Anyway, I was reading an article on Wheating, and he said he wish he'd not let the leaders get away at the Bowerman Mile because he had more left in the tank at the end of the race. Maybe he's starting to learn he can compete with the Kenyans if he doesn't play sit-and-kick. Wheating PRed by six seconds in that race. The word about him always has been that he is a phenomenal talent.

The young kid from Greece ran a 20.67 today for the win. Forgot his name.

Tommorow is the Diamond League Meet in Lausanne. In the mens 200, we will have Jordan Boase, Paul Hession. and Marc Sneeberger all competeting. Should be some fast times.

This weekend is the big meet in England. The Gateshead Meet will be another opportunity for Craig Pickering to find a way to get a better start. His season has been awful. Good luck to Craig and many of the other British Athletes we root fo.

Today was exciting at the Diamond League. Wariner won in a world lead time, Hession equaled his seasons best of 20.46, and C.Nytra finished 2nd in a new p.b. of 12.57. She lost to P.Lopes. What a race. Germany has a good find in Nytra.
