So...
Do you HAVE to be fat to do the shot put?
I'm guessing you do, as the all are, but why? What's the science behind it? Couldn't you excel if you just worked on your upper body muscle mass without being overall just fat?

The competitors are panning this comp as rubbish. Crowds are tiny, alas. Hope it’s not a foretaste of what the WC 2022 will be like. I hope so. Maybe thereafter things like the WC in Qatar will belong to the past.

Fuck the BBC NI. They decide to cut out their coverage just as the W 400 hurdles is about to start to put on Linfield v who the fuck knows. That's shit, that is. Managed to miss a WR now because of that. Didn't know it was free on YouTube, less UK-centric too. Actually showing every jump of the high jump too. Why didn't y'all tell me this existed?

I wish I’d known about the YouTube stream too! Loved the women’s hurdles though I’d have preferred a McLaughlin win. Great race though. Steeplechase was terrific too. Good atmosphere in the stadium with Barshim competing ... and winning.

Good article. Was reading the other night some comments of disbelief about the BBC asking and allowing Radcliffe in particular to comment on this without disclosing that fact that she is effectively a paid Nike employee with direct links to the case.

Hassan dominates 1500m and knocks 3.99 seconds of her pb.
She’s one of Salazar’s stable I just found out. Dodgy?

That felt like a proper night of championship athletics. Exciting stuff happening all over the place. Best night so far. I wish I'd have found the YT coverage sooner though, it's so much more comprehensive than the Beeb. That article by Ronay is brilliant, he's a great writer when he gets going.
