Zürich DL 2021

[FleetingRedux]

I get the same sense from Mboma that I often got from Semenya--that she's sandbagging so that she doesn't run too fast

I believe she was running all out, but when age and more coaching she will be WR holder. They will probably stop her before she breaks 21.34. It's not going to look good for a DSD athlete to break a 30+ year old record, given her age.

But he got the one that counts
And has a faster time

Yes, tough to knock him off but Kerley's finish has been strong.

The tap dancing around her issue by the commentators really grinds my gears. I'm sure their employers have forbidden speaking about it, but c'mon man. She and Masilingi are not allowed to compete in the 400 for a specific reason.

On Peacock, the commentator has talked about it several times.

[Atticus]

Shericka Jackson needs to do some serious work on hip strength. Her legs are hardly coming up. She will be more dangerous when she can get those legs up and out.

That's already been trademarked by ETH.

Sometthing needs to be done!!
No woman with higher than normal testosterone should be allowed to run in ANY all-women's event!
She's a woman, but she has an unfair advantage over women with natural levels of testosterone!
Same goes for Niyonsaba in the distances!

21.78 Mbomba. Another WJR. Great time that adds further to the controversy surrounding her. Next year will be interesting in Eugene.

Nope, her first 100 so awful she has to come full throttle in the second 100. I'll tell you what Id like her to get into the 21.6 range because then Thompson would feel like she has to go even faster because Mboma imo will be the person who pushes her over the next year over the longer distance.

Did you take a poll?

Don't need to, I have my metaphorical finger on the metaphorical pulse of the metaphorical Body Athletics!

Speaking of breaths of fresh air . . . Tamberi.

[booond]

That's on you. To most of us, it is a breath of fresh air.

I don't mind it as it is branding for her and a women's discus thrower needs all the recognition help she can get.

[JMysterio]

Wardude certainly has to deal with having run 45.x. I like his idea of trying other events.

At the press conference he addressed what he would need to do to run the 800 but didn't say he was going to do it.

[Atticus]

There's lots of smoke around the DSD issue, but Mboma sure looks 100% female.
