Nope.

Bottom!

I'm likely to miss this afternoons Red Button coverage. Was it on iplayer afterwards for Doha?

If the red button doesn't show up on the screen still press the button - that's what I did on Friday. As for those complaining about not showing the earlier field events what do they want the BBC to do? Show up with their own cameras? The red button programme is the official IAAF broadcast, all the...

Justrunfast Fair points. But I'm really just suggesting that in the future he might be better without barriers. He doesn't seem very accomplished getting from one side of them to the other. Which is pretty important if he is ever going to make a world final. I'm sure he will prove me wrong. :) jack...

Ah, to dream!

Scroll to the bottom for confirmation of Red Button commentary 5-7pm. Nothing about future meets though.

I doubt Mr. Brownlie will seriously target track and field. Why would he, as the worlds best triathlete by a country mile? He will never be able to devote the time needed to take on the worlds best. If he runs in Glasgow it will be for a bit of fun. I think he will dabble in track and field as its ...

Yes I know, Sidelined. And you are absolutely right that there should have been a GB womens sprint relay team competing. But there wasn't. So they are all still waiting patiently in the wings until someone organises a race for them. It WILL happen, ...eventually. And when it does I hope they get th...

"@JRNHeadlines: Yomiuri news confirms 17-yr old Yoshihide Kiryu's 10.01 (+0.9), equal to Jr. WR and all-time JPN#2, at Oda Memorial: http://t.co/Wk5dogzcSL"

The word on Forums is that when the British runner in the Medley fell, said to be Rooney??, he threw a tantrum with his batton and did not even get up. Another runner , possibly Morroccan also fell, but got up and finished. Any truth in this story? Anybody see the fall. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v...

Saw his interview yesterday during the San Diego World Series coverage. Been waiting a while to see how he'd fair on the track. He's already proved handy over Cross Country.

Sophie Hitchon 70.53 at Stanford

I actually quite like it, because it means the athlete coming in can step out of the way much easier. Perhaps that's their reasoning on that one?

Looks like he's signed with San Francisco 49ers. Very good luck to him. My team is the Steelers, but I will keep a eye out for his progress.

3:22.68 for the ladies. 0.02 behind US!

Rooney fell halfway round apparantly.

Me too!! Bjoerndalen's my favourite!

Lewis taking a calculated risk, passing at 5.76.

Excellent performance and what a shame it was in front of a few hundred people. Helped somewhat by being in Albuquerque New Mexico. The city acc to Google varies from 1490 metres upwards. Jenn Suhrs PV in Albuquerque was marked as at altitude officially so the best sea level performance is still Is...

Is it me or has no-one on here mentioned James Dasaolu as a medal contender? 6.52! I was going to bring that up. He looked to be going full pelt though and I don't know how much the others eased it. Awful start though, so if he gets that straight for the final....?? Just great to get two in the fin...

Clitheroe 71:47 for fourth in the ladies race.

Scott Overall 64:52

A win for Mo in 61:00

Anyone know if there's live streaming for Mo's Half Marathon tomorrow?

How absolutely gut-wrenching. Can't even imagine how he must feel. My deepest condolences.

Where the heck did this stuff about Mo running in ther London Marathon come from. Is it official,?; like you posters I read all the media stuff and no way was Mo's name mentioned when the fields for the Marathon were announced a few weeks ago. No reference in Track and Field News or in letsrun.com....

Mo is training for the London Marathon, which is only nine weeks away. What do you know that we don't? I thought Mo had already said he is planning to do the 5000 and 10000 in Moscow, and possibly do the London marathon in 2014. He's down to run a half marathon on the 24th Feb. http://runrocknroll....

World lead for Holly Bleasdale. 4.77. Must make her favourite for the European Indoors. Please not the kiss of death. No favourites; its not a comp at the Europeans with no one remotely to compare with the winner as today when you know you've won before the start; there are some experienced vaulter...

He won that too!!!
