Abbey Caldwell 1:58.92 in Manchester

When I first saw this result I thought 'yeah yeah musta been paced by some Brits'. Then when I looked deeper and saw she won, dragged Mageean to a new Irish record and (apparently... can't find a video) no pacemakers, it's a ton more impressive,

First Aussie woman to run her first 800m races in a calendar year under 1-59,

[Vault-emort]

Ash not looking very happy with his disc - understandable with his best today being 5m below his PB.

[typpo]

In Gotzis after seven events, Moloney 6094 (4th, looking flat after yesterday, untidy hurdles and underwhelming discus, still only 14 points off third), Golubovic 5923 (12th after a strong discus, with some good events to come), Dubler 5827 (15th, will be hoping for a good performance in one of his strongest events, the PV). Crase is on 4426 (15th) in the heptathlon after five events.

[Vault-emort]

Crase having a decent comp but unless she can produce a huge PB in the 800 is unlikely to trouble her PB for the event.

[typpo]

Gotzis - Golubovic 8301 (6th), Dubler 8009 (14th), Moloney DNF (pulled out of the 1500 after an indifferent discus, PV and javelin; looked injured); Crase 5925 (18th)
Rabat DL - Bisset 2.00.11 (2nd), Hoare 3.33.39 (3rd), Hall 4.03.56 (6th)

Thank you Mr Jacobs..

[proofs in the pudd'in]

Thank you Mr Jacobs..

Hopefully Mr. B can get that sub-10.

[Vault-emort]

Good performances by Nina (SB) & Browning, Hall & Caldwell overnight.

But of course the MVP was Jess Hull with that 1500m AR, Was worried she wasn't gonna be able to stick on that WR pace but she backed herself and had an amazing run.

Nice work

[DET59]

El Toro, enjoy your Aussie posts! I'm very curious how the Aussue 'elite of the elite' deal with a year like '23 with an August WC and Sept DL final.... do they just have one long 10+ month track season?
