Just to try to keep things semi-organized, this thread is for non-USA, non-NCAA info. There are separate threads for each.

Chris Thompson was 2:10:50
Steph Davis won the women's race in 2:27:16.

If that were with the old shoes (which I cannot believe it was) . . .
Vaporflys (disguised, according to LR) confirmed.

[TN1965]

If that were with the old shoes (which I cannot believe it was), I'd say good job. but now, 2:10 and 2:27 are mid-pack at the OG.

Being mid-pack at the OG is a lot better than staying at home and watching the race on TV.

In Florida today:

Long Jump:
Chantel Malone (British Virgin Islands) - 7.08m (+1.4)
Daria Klishina (Russia) - 7.05 (+2.7)

Blessong Okagbare - 53.21 PB in the 400m

I'm a bit dubious re those wLJ results. And how is Klishina even competing, I didn't think any Russian athletes were cleared internationally yet

I know it's at high altitude, but this one is the sub10 with the strongest headwind. Gatlin had one 10.02 with -3.5m/s in Tokyo

A 9.99 0.0 at Tuks Stadium, Pretoria (1,358m) is worth 10.03 at sea level, so altitude has an effect, but not huge.

Simbine's 9.99 -3.0 at Tuks is worth around 9.87

Gatlins' 10.02 -3.5 at a trivial 35m altitude is worth around 9.79

Calculations using JRM's adjustment formula.

ATK & @gm
thanks for those. Ok, so, I'm not being thick here - or difficult - but those don't seem to help me. Re the 10 Russian athletes eligible for competition this year, I can't see anywhere that Klishina is one of those? Have the 10 been named yet? In fact, before that 7m+ LJ, I would not have thought she would be in the 10, but with that performance she may well be considered by Rus Athletics now.
Re gm's link, unless it's taken me to a different page, the latest article I can see is from 2016 when she was granted neutral status...but I thought that had been gazumped & everything was re-set? It didn't mean she was forever competing as a neutral?

Am I missing something?

You'd probably get a better response asking in an appropriate thread (this is about US outdoor results). But I honestly haven't seen anything that said Russian athletes cant compete outside of major competitions. But I dont follow this whole Russian story very well anyway.
