Well done all, team better than I thought.
Good of UKA to name those sitting on or just outside of rankings🤞for:
Molly Palmer
Joel CK
Heard
Church
Barber
Surprised not 1 M60H named in case make rankings. Had 3 within 9 places of getting in.
No men’s 4x4 is only downer 😞
So good for the sport to have Laura racing the National XC today.
Loads of U13’s stayed extra two hours after their races for 1 reason; Laura.
100’s of selfies done straight after winning 🥇… class

Enjoyed #UKIndoorChamps this weekend.
Lots of drop outs as usual from bigger names, but but these champs are always about giving opportunities to new kids on the block.
9️⃣ “Newbies” who impressed the most?
Excited for 🇬🇧 indoors?
I wouldn’t bother tuning in at 11:26 for opening 60m.
Timetable has x12, 7second races taking up 1h 40mins 🥱 (should be 30mins tops 🧮 no field until 13:03
Turn on at 12:50 & fast forward ⏩️ the fillers
Really disappointed at the price of these tickets.
Info said as low as £26, but that’s for wheelchair users.
Instead it’s £55 for a morning session in Band C! On the bend!!
Evening sessions ridiculous. It’s CWG, not Olympics.
Euros in Brum I got 4x pm sessions for £110 total
Wow excited news. Cannot wait to see how this unfolds
Hats off to to Femke to be up for the challenge. Far harder than SML’s 400 switch.
My money is on a Pb in 1st 800 race
Femke Bol to switch from 400m hurdles to 800m.
In a major career change, the Dutch athlete will move to the 800m on a permanent basis from next season.

#onthisday in 1991 two iconic albums were released;
Nevermind
&
Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic
Imagine popping down to Our Price, seeing the album covers & thinking I’ll take these two a spin 🎧
Not to sound like an old fart, but ‘they don’t make em like they used to’

🇬🇧 athletes who can be proud in 🇯🇵
All outperformed:
🚹
Hughes (200): 20.07; 19.95; 19.78 (5th) 0.05 off PB
Burgin: 6th & PB
Wightman:🥈amazing comeback
Donovan: PB & SF - 11th in 🌎
Lincoln: 8th. 2x 21m throws. Best 🇬🇧 ever at WC
Derbyshire (4x4) 45.13 leg.
Honourable mention to:
Dina: made both 100/200m finals (8th & 5th) 10th World final!
Fastest 4x1 1st leg too apparently
KJT: battles for🥉. Has high standards maybe wanted more, yet haven’t seen much this year so good result.
Keely: Out all season but still runs 1:54.9 for🥉
One athlete who went under the radar was Nicole Yeargin.
Whilst team performances were perhaps sub-par, Nicole ran awesome legs & should be proud:
W4x4 = 51.11
Mixed Heat = 49.88
Mixed Final = 50.12
Odira’s progression is quite odd. She’s 26 so not some youngster storming onto scene.
Nothing 2019-2024
<2025 PB of 1:58 (‘24)
Results in 1025 all over the place, including 2:13 for 800?
Need to know more on her story. Did she take a break then come back to sport like GHB?
