What's attendance been like? From all the photos I've seen, it appears that crowds were quite small.

The covered "Grand Stand" area is full. Rest of stadium is sparse.

HS Championships normally has a full stadium.

Yohan 1st Bolt second.

I'm wondering how this is gonna affect the psyche of some of these athletes...I also wonder how this affects Ver's mentality...Not that she's scared or anything, but I bet she would have liked to run at least one round of race before the finals...It's gonna be an interesting finals later...

Stewart's not running the 200! We only have 6 competitors I hear

Lane 2 Fraser
Lane 3 Bailey
Lane 4 N. Anderson
Lane 5 Facey
Lane 6 Veronica
Lane 7 Anneisha

[jamaicantrackfan]

A couple withdrawals in the womens 200m including Kerron Stewart. Only 6 women in the 200m final later.

Very disappointing news because Jamaica was assured at least a medal with Kerron in the 200m.

Lets see what Fraser can do however.
