The listed times could be at Rieti (about 50 miles northeast of Rome) and that would require some conversion to the time zone of persons reading this post -- or going to the website for details currently available in Italian.

This is the last meet to achieve qualifying performances for the "World Athletics Final" on Sept. 12-13 in Greece.

well of course the times listed are local times, would it make any sense whatsoever to list times relative to some other time zone?

Anyway in the italian section of the site the timetable is the same, so it should be pretty much official.

No official start lists seen as of Saturday morning, the day before 2009 Rieti meet. But some athlete names are provided at this URL: http://www.rietimeeting.com/files/4settembremed.html

Anyone have a link for a webcast of this event?

If SAF and CJ are in the 100m and no AF or VCB in 200m and there's prize money for places, it would make sense to me.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I think she is sadly tapering off for the season it seems.
She peaked perfectly for the WC though, lol.

Its a pity that SS won't make the World Athletics Tour Final in the 100 or 200 it seems. She needs a LOT more points to qualify

gabyanderson has asked for the following link to a stream for Rieti to be on-posted here (from the AW forum):

(By the way, if any moderator is reading,
gaby explains that s/he has been banned here due to her/his error, due to an imperfect understanding of English "rude words".
Maybe the punishment could be kept to a minimum in light of that reason? English is not her/his first language.)

[hemlock]

18 starters in the W1500m.
Let's just hope Shannon Rowbury doesn't try to complete her collection of Charlene Thomas's spikes. :twisted:

[croflash]

Thomas wins the 110m hurdles in 13.36 (-1.3).

[JWiz]

Foster-Hylton wins in 12.78

Yay for Nickesha Wilson in second!

[croflash]

And Foster-Hylton continues her streak, taking first with a time of 12.78 (-2.5).
