Karsten Warholm opens up his 2022 season and the men's steeple and 800s are LOADED. We can't wait. *MB: Official 2022 Rabat DL Discussion Thread (2-4 pm ET Sunday, CNBC)
The long jump has started. It's a super good field (Tentoglou, Harrison, Ehammer) but no great jumps yet, unsure what the conditions are like. Ehammer leading now with an 8.11 jump
The guy I only learned about this week but now am obessed about - Simone Ehammer - the multi athlete - has the lead in the LJ halfway through. Only guy over 8 so far - 8.11.
World leader Marileidy Paulino, the Olympic silver medallist from the Dominican Republic, was a dominant winner in 50.10 as Sada Williams of Barbados was secondein 50.74 with Olymic 4th placer Stephanie Ann McPherson third in 51.37.
Interesting to see how Jake Heyward will do in the 1500m. Welshman Joe Cordina won the world super featherweight IBF championship yesterday, Wales just beat Ukraine to qualify for the World Cup, and now hopefully Jake will set a new Welsh 1500m record (3:33.99).
Lol, I wondered what had happened then when I refreshed it and tried to post and it had gone! Sorry rojo, I did have a look to see if there was a thread but I must've missed this one.
Mahuchikh wins the women's HJ with 1.96. Levchenko is 7th with 1.85m. BBC says it is 23C in Rabat, will be 21C and sunny at 8pm, 21C and cloudy apparently at 9pm. Men's 1500m underway.
The men's 1500m, two athletes stayed on the start line...
A weird 1500 but a pretty good one. Nice run for Wightman. I fell like Katir kept attacking on the curves and running extra distance as a result and paid for it in the end
