From sprinting greatness to sporting farce... a self-inflicted collapse

For shame @fkerley99 insideathletics.com.au/blog/…
Tough semi-final draw for Gout Gout at the Stawell Gift, up against favourite John Evans. Evans will run from 9.75m and have a 8.75m start on the 17-year-old, and was 0.17s quicker in the heats.

Brilliant running in challenging circumstances. Sadly I doubt the times will stand up being official - it looks like a single time keeper not standing in alignment with the finishing line was the backup - World Athletics Rules require three timekeepers
Bizarre scenes at Vic Milers Club at Doncaster - venue lights turning off with a lap to go in the men’s 1500m. Seth O’Donnell the clear winner in what looked 3:36ish on the live stream - but possibly not enough light for photo finish to work
Record parkrun today at Albert Park with 1,316 finishers

The Olympic qualifying period is over. There's cause for all of celebration, commiseration, hope and intrigue over the next week as selections are finalised.
Check out the summary of the Road to Paris listing - insideathletics.com.au/blog/…
Only the athletes from the nation whose National Champ it is score the Category B points. Any further competing is really only good for any Aussies chasing the entry standards.
My apologies @toriwest__ - missed that there is the A meet in Ratingen. I'll update the article. Best wishes for a great performance.
Here's how the Australian team is faring at the pointy end of the Olympic qualifying period
