Summer Paris 2024 - Track & Field

[Tall poppy Syndrome]

Just got up and all the talk is of Shelley Anne Fraser Price withdrawing/not getting in to the stadium for the 100m semis. But no one seems to know why? Anyone got the good oil?

 

[JP Sauce]

Wow the Netherlands upset the US in the mixed 4x400m!

 

[Tall poppy Syndrome]

Holland!

 

[Rustin Cohle]

I cannot believe that run from Bol. Did not even look like she was trying.

 

[Tall poppy Syndrome]

Holland!

What a run by Bol!

 

[AdelaideGT]

They changed rules so athletes living outside village had to enter by different gate.

Also she had a strained hamstring it seems so warming up properly was required.

Eddie says 9 trying to investigate but the whole internet knows..

Wowweeee, check out a replay of the 4x400m mixed relay (athletics). I won't spoil it for you.

 

[JP Sauce]

Had to rewatch that. She came from miles back and made it look so easy!

 

[Rustin Cohle]

If I heard correctly they said Bol ran a sub 48 split. That is insane.

What a relay race and that leg by Bol was just something else. Wow!

The rain is coming down very hard right now, five minutes before the 100m final.

 

[AdelaideGT]

If I heard correctly they said Bol ran a sub 48 split

47.93

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Alfred did that so easily. Awesome run.

 

[The King!]

Way to go Alfred. St Lucia's first ever Olympic medal.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Alfred dominant. And though she doesn't like running it she might even be better over 200s.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Poor Ta Lou is cursed.

Scary thought

She dominated the 100

Followed up by Dominica's first ever in the triple jump! Love seeing all these first-times.
