Was quite windy there apparently in Long Jump there were readings as high as 4.8 m/s. But who cares doesnt effect a discus record

Also great that Abdul Buhari went over A standard with 65.44!!

Channel four are asking for comments about the type of coverage you want to see of the Athletics coverage in Daegu. So here is our opportunity to comment so that they hopefully avoid the mistakes BBC repeatdly makes such not showing enough field events or excessive talking by the pundits. If you hav...

She has posted on her twitter account that she is struggling to be fit to compete this season. Can only assume from that she has struggled again with injuries through winter and pre season.

What a weird meet. Started off great and then like the weather gradually got worse to the point where the wrong sprinter got dq'd! With the exception of Felix the show stoppers were beaten. I hear what you're saying 1937 about the next diamond league meet, however before then are the US & JAAA ...

Lets hope steve. Bev Kinch's British needs to be broken its been there to long

Shara Proctor has Jumped a new PB of 6.81 in a small Meeting in Claremont Florida puts her equal 4th on the all time list and an A standard as Well!

Well athletes need to get used to this weather probably be like this in London next year!!

thanks for the link!

Kelly Sotherton has withdrawn from her race as she is suffering from food poisioning.

Thanks Fangio. I was about to say we suddenly just found out we had a world class runner we never knew about!!

Just been looking at the power of 10 all time lists for 100m and 200m for women and Dominque richard has suddenly appeared at the top of both with times set in 2006 of 10.74 and 21.78.

Anyone know who she is and why she has suddenly just appeared?

No it doesn't sound like he is injured and he has defintley said he will be competing in the New York diamond league on saturday. I Don't think the european team championships were ever part of his plans. Makes you think It would make sense for Uka to contact athletes before they select the team to ...

Phillips Idowu has annouced on his twitter account that he is pulling out of the European Championships. Such as sham edefintley weakens the time as the replacement will be some 2 meters down.

Looks like there are still 2 rounds to go in discus. Javelin comp had four. Not sure what to make of Brett yet this season. Great that he has got some good throws out there but never seems to do it away from the minor meets at home. Valid or I am being to harsh? Lost me on that one as he has had on...

Dai Greene has said on his Twitter that he was "disgusted" with his run even though he ran a PB and was in lane 8. Good attitude.

He can defintley run faster than that.

Jenny Meadows comes in only 5th in 2:01.89. Dissapointing considering her start to the year.

Katarina Johnson-Thompson seat A PB of 5571 in bedford a Euro Junior Qualifying Mark.

we have commentary!!

And from your stats D pIckup doesn't it make it the fastest time in the last 5 years as well?

Have to agree steve. Defintley the best race I have seen a British distance runner on the track since Paula in Manchester in 2002.

Surely he has to do the 5 and 10k double now? Assuming there is enough of a gap between the two at the worlds.
