Greg Allen commentating on track and field is one for the things that are right thread. Himself and Gillick a good combo. Genuine positivity.
Did I mss a snout joke?
2nd last day. Women’s 4x400m relay the main attraction. Elbows Shanahan could do anything either if there’s a bit of hustle and bustle. Nothing to watch till the evening
Very wet evening in Munich - if it doesn’t clear up it’ll make things interesting later !
Slippery batons…
Will order be changed for 4x400
Adeleke to run last leg?
Same order as semi I think
You’d expect her to run last leg but maybe they have a plan
Hopefully a cunning plan
800m Womens final also ready to go
Checked Shanahan is 8th of 8 with bookies.
Relay team 7th of 8 in betting.
Here we go. Hope she does herself justice
Sub 59 first 400m
8th. Pace was too hot.
Hodgkinson wins. She’s a class athlete.
Hodgkinson is unreal
The other brit blew up badly there at the end
We’ve one weakish leg- if Phil Healy can perform to her best we’ve an outside* hope of a medal.
- puncher’s chance
Hodgekinson looked like a walk in the park. Dodnt knock a feather off her and miles clear of the others who were out on their feet. Similar enough to Paula Muir in the 1500. You’d wonder what the brits are doing at that level of mid distance to be so dominant.

Savage relay by GB&NI there. Some depth they have
