Really didn’t think the first ‘proper’ sub-2 would be at London

Well done Josh Kerr breaking the mile WR, excellent run to take half a second off of it.

How on Earth did Werro get let through to the 800m final? Trips herself up, face plants, trots in last and still gets a pass. No way a lesser name would have got away with that.

I know. They are now saying the French athlete’s hand lightly touched her foot? I’ve watched it again and can’t see it!

I was pleased that they put Gabija Galvydyte through as well.

That would have been a travesty if they hadn't. It does mean it will be a bun fight with 10. KH needs to stretch it out from the front.

i watched all the replays shown in teh aftermath, admittedly not looking for a french lasses hand as I hadnt heard that excuse, but it looked for all the world that she kicked her own leg, possibly due to unbalancing herself by clipping the kerb.

it was also apparent in Werro's post race chat she didnt think she'd been clipped, she just opitmisticlaly mentioned hopefully getting thru on appeal. the was no - "i felt a clip on my 'insert body part' "

Just like for the American 4 x 400 team recently in whatever games it was (see a couple of pages ago in this thread). It’s
disappointing.
