@RunYoung50 On the other hand, 100% of the commentators who called track and field for the BBC radio in #Paris2024 were women (#AllisonCurbishley & #KatharineMerry). :)
English

Only 23% of the journalists covering the #Paris2024 Games were women. An increase over the Tokyo Games but still a minority.
Femmes Journalistes de Sport@DesJournalistes
📢 Les chiffres sur la parité dans les médias pendant #Paris2024 sont tombés ! 📈 Il y a du progrès par rapport à Tokyo 2020, mais les femmes étaient encore nettement moins nombreuses que les hommes à couvrir ces Jeux 🎯 Changer la donne ensemble pour Los Angeles 2028 💪

@choppertune @ArtOfYrSuccess Yes it's a great event to be part of.

@RunYoung50 @ArtOfYrSuccess Not too bad thanks, tapering off now! It’s my second Marathon, i caught the bug for running last year and ran the Newport Marathon earlier this year. I booked the IOW the day after Newport 🤣. I’ve since realised it’s a landmark race this year so feeling privileged to be there

I'm using my @ArtOfYrSuccess to plan and review my training for the Isle of Wight Marathon. Just 3 weeks to go!
