7 Alek Walerianczyk 2.10 :shock:

Marcin Jedrusinski was the fastest in men's heats with 20.98.

[Powell]

Dariusz Kuć won the final with 10.27 (+1.7) ahead of Marcin Nowak 10.33 and Marcin Jędrusiński 10.35. Korczyńska first in the women's sprint with 11.29 (+3.3). Tomasz Majewski won the SP with 20.50. Marcin Starzak jumped 8.20, but was unlucky to have wind of +2.3, so still no A qualifier for him. Krzysztof Lewandowski was second with 8.07 (also +2.3) and Tomasz Mateusiak third with a legal 8.00.

The 400m specialists didn't impress in qualifying. Piotr Kędzia was the fastest man with 46.43, Agnieszka Karpiesiuk fastest woman with 52.91.

[Powell]

In the heats of the men's 100, Marcin Jędrusiński ran a legal 10.31 (+1.8) and Dariusz Kuć a wind-aided 10.24 (+2.5).

[Powell]

A nice PB for Daria Korczyńska in the heats of the 100: 11.34 with perfect +2.0 wind. Fastest time by a Pole since 2000, I believe.

The time is 0.02 outside the A standard, but I presume she will be entered individually in Beijing anyway, since she will be a member of the relay team.

[nevetsllim]

Jakubczak seems to perennially underperform in every single race outside a major champs, but can peak for the champs e.g. 4th at the 98 Euros, 6th and 7th at the 2000 and 2004 Olympics etc. I'd chose Edyjs, Chojecka and Jakubczak.

[Powell]

I can't see a 200 (men or women, heats or final) listed in the timetable on forsport.info (though there are heats at the end of tomorrow's session and the final earlier on Sunday according to the timetable on your second link), and therefore no startlists.
I presume the race will happen ?!

Yes, there certainly will be a 200

[andyjgt]

Agreed Nevets though based on their last encounter maybe it should be Jakubczak and not Chojecka who is left out (I do know Anna has the A).

[nevetsllim]

Like I said before, I think Janowska is being greedy because she has doubled up at the 2005 and 2007 WC and underperformed in both events on both occasions.

[Powell]

Did Jesien get an exemption from these champs? I see she isn't in the 400 flat either.

Also, Rostkowska is in the Madrid startlists as well as the NC, but they're on the same day - which one will she do, since she lacks the A?

In principle there are no exemptions (unless you get a doctor's certificate stating you are unable to compete). I don't know what the deal is with Jesien - perhaps she is doing the 200?

Rostkowska could potentially run the 1500 in the NC on Sunday.

[andyjgt]

I notice Plawgo didn't get one.

[Powell]

Małgorzata Pskit 56.22 in the heats of 400H. It looks like she went for the A qualifier (she won the race by over 3 seconds), but she didn't get all that close.
