Will this be streamed anywhere ?

It's on Eurosport if you have it.

I have just been looking at the British Eurosport schedule on the TV guide and according to the guide, they have shunted the athletics for a repeat of the bloody football :roll: Quite frankly, the Eurosport coverage of athletics this year has been absolutely abysmal.

[Matt]

Nev, it still appears on today's Sky Guide and on the GB Eurosport website so I am assuming its on.

[nevetsllim]

Thank goodness for that. I hope so! I have Virgin TV and the guide says football but fingers crossed for the athetics!

BTW, Ohuruogu has withdrawn.

[Powell]

Ohuruogu is still on the startlist, but Kim Gevaert has apparently pulled out :?

[Powell]

Krystyna Zabawska won the SP with 18.68 to qualify for her fourth OG.

[nevetsllim]

Thank goodness - it's live! Bydgoszcz looks resplendant with the blue track 8)

Is Zabawska 40 now? It occured to me recently she looks rather like Anna Jesien recently :wink:

w100 now. No sign of Gevaert as you say.

[nevetsllim]

Any live results, Powell?

Yes, she is 40. And she is about 3 times as big as Jesien :wink:

Just out of interest Powell, why are there so many Brits in this meet?! And so few Poles! Only one in the women's 100 and 200 (Bejnar in both). (I know the Polish NC starts on Friday.)

In any case, Laura Turner is improving - 11.33 (admittedly 1.7). She beat Douglas 11.35 and Onuora 11.39 (Laverne Jones won with 11.27).

Not sure about the Brits, but yes. I'm pretty sure the NC is the primary reason some of the top Poles are missing. The sprinters will be fighting it out for OG relay team spots in Szczecin, so obviously it's pretty important to them.

Tatyana Dektyareva won the 100h with 12.81 (wind +2.2). Aurelia Trywianska got left way behind at the start, but almost caught the Russian in the end, finishing in 12.82.
