That’s the rub with sports that have historical records and tainted histories. All decent performances are raked over because of previous ridiculousness

Seems weird that they had the 100m champion running a bend and the 200m champion running a straight

Great run from Hawkins in the marathon overnight. I don’t think there was ever a chance of him getting a medal, but he’ll have scared a few people on the way in his attempt to avoid a sprint finish.

I think that the Olympics will have a stronger field though, as quite a few of the top runners skipped this race in favour of Berlin. A top 5 finish should be the target.

If only Lynsey Sharp had been around in those days - she’d have managed to get rid of her.

Ach, they were in last place anyway and weren’t expected to do anything. I feel sorry for the anchor leg though, he didn’t get a chance to get involved.
