first time since 1988 that no jamo woman won a medal in da sprint
Very unfortunate case for Jamaica women 100m

Their top woman runner, sustained achilles injury before olympic trials and didn't participate. She was the former olympic gold medallist in Tokyo.

1st seed for the jamaica 100m olympic trials, decided not to run 100m and focus on 200m instead since she feel that she got better chance winning the 200m if she focus on one event.

2nd seed 19 yo, first time in olympics and don't have much competition experience, so not as experienced. She made the finals for olympics.

3rd seed, didn't run the semis due to injury during warm up.

4th seed, got eliminated (6th for her olympics semis for her group)

The men 100m look more promising for this olympics though.

400m workout for olympics, featuring previous tokyo gold medallist.

- 3x200m (2 min rest) - 5 min recovery between sets - 3x200m (2 min rest)

- pace: 800m WR pace




This guy got called up to run for the UK in the 800m 6 days before the race while camping in Switzerland. He is planning to leave his tent there and go straight to Paris, run the race then come back the following week. Managed to ask someone else to take care of his dogs/tent.

Thanks! Will watch and try some of these.

I'm enjoying sprints more and more. Mainly because less time needed.

A good running, jogging, walking shoes will hv the impact on your running, jogging or walking?

Especially speed n distances that will not make your feet n toes uncomfortable in the long distance?

I intend to buy crocs to standby when raining, change into crocs. And when feel toes or instep painful, change to crocs.

Need your advise.
