Mixed Relay Final up now.

BBC coverage is excellent as always

The brittle dutch mentality on show tonight

5th for us was it?

Presume the Dutch are disqualified?

Yep, dropped baton

I didn’t think after the rout at White Hart Lane this evening we’d see anything to match Coach Ten Fag for the Dutch falling flat on their faces for a while. How wrong was I.

Sharlene ran a fucking stormer. Her legs will be in bits for the individual 400m tomorrow morning

6th for Ireland. Sharlene ran 50.02 on her final leg, the only runner who went faster on that leg was the winner

Sharlene and Rhasidat out in the 400m heats from 8.35am. Sharlene in Heat 1 and Rhasidat in Heat 5 or 6.

Those legs are fine

Anywhere we can see the schedule for all Irish athletes for the day?

I must be slipping up

Thanks

Sharlene up now.

First 3 go through and 6 fastest after that. She’s up against the 2nd fastest world ranked from @balbec’s neck of the woods

4th I think. Tied up in the last 100. Fair gap to 3rd so she’ll do well to qualify I’d say

Won’t be one of fastest losers anyway

51.17 so a PB for Sharlene. That’s fair going after 2 massive runs yesterday

That’s a great run from Sharlene, all you can hope to do is a PB and see where that takes you.

Here’s hoping.
