Her voice is borderline the most unexpected part of the night

LOL, the interview was class. I’d say she’s hard going - but who gives a shite when all we have to is watch her race

Kipchoge running Tokyo on Sunday - I wonder what the plan is? Must be a very different 2024 for him now that Kiptum is not going to be around for Paris…

Patrick Sang will be channelling his inner Brian Ashton this morning. "That was someone's game plan, not my Game plan"

I missed the morning session but PB for Lavin in 7.9 and a NR and q for the 4x400m is a great mornings work. Lavin is just supreme in her consistency. won her heat easily by a couple of 100ths

Caught the interview with Mawdesley, Flanigan, Becker and Healy. They were buzzing you love to see it..Big evening ahead

There is something about the joy she brings to proceedings. She was dancing away waiting on Will Dalton to ask his question.

Compare to aule Misery guts Sydney McLoughlan.

The age of Kipchoge must be over. Will they even pick him for Paris?

Well that's the question now - he didn't make the Kenyan top 3 today. He's hardly going to run another marathon before Paris.

Lavin was unreal her interview afterwards was class.
The 50.odd last leg in the 4x400 was incredible too.

You'd have to give him credit for not DNFing when he slipped off the pace.

I presume Evans Chebet is running Boston and there are bound to be a few fellas in London and Rotherdam who could go sub 2:03.

Squeaky Bum time
