@skep_observer Vibe is that Singapore tends to be pretty pro-incumbent if they're competent

Is no American ET people going to talk about this?

@TrackGazette WHAT THE HECK

19.67s!!!🤯🤯 World U20 Record ☑️ National Record ☑️ 18-year-old Gout Gout 🇦🇺 has just run a blazing 19.67s (1.7) to win the Australian men's 200m title!! He breaks the World U20 Record of 19.69s by Erriyon Knighton and goes 16th on the alltime list. Aidan Murphy 🇦🇺 was 2nd in a massive PB of 19.88s, while Calab Law was 3rd in 20.21s (PB).

@Predamame Everyone didn't break 2:00 in their 800m splits, but the 4 x 800 is sub 8:00

I didn’t actually break 2:00 in my 4x800 relay. APRIL FOOLS!

@Predamame The funniest timeline

USATF is being rewarded for going the extra mile in their Half Marathon Championships.

@CitiusMag The funniest outcome

🇺🇸 On a strictly one-time basis, World Athletics has approved an expanded seven-woman U.S. team for the women's half marathon at the 2026 World Athletics Road Running Championships in Copenhagen (Sept. 19-20), up from the standard four. This comes after three American women (Jess McClain, Emma Grace Hurley and Ednah Kurgat) were robbed of a likely podium finish at the USATF Half Marathon Championships in Atlanta after a police injury caused the lead vehicle to direct the front pack off course The seven spots team will be: 3 off-course athletes: Jess McClain, Emma Grace Hurley, Ednah Kurgat 3 official top finishers: Molly Born, Carrie Ellwood, Annie Rodenfels 1 world ranking selection (as of May 5) 🗣️ CEO Max Siegel: “From the moment this happened, our focus was on doing right by the athletes. Jessica, Emma Grace, and Ednah had clearly separated themselves in the race and we are sorry they did not get to celebrate their accomplishment by breaking the tape. On behalf of everyone at USA Track & Field, I want to thank World Athletics. Their council and leadership are committed to a fair and athlete-centered solution that preserves the integrity of competition while recognizing the reality of what occurred in Atlanta.” How will it work in Copenhagen? USATF will designate four scoring athletes and three non-scoring athletes. The non-scoring trio are full Team USATF members and will earn World Athletics ranking points, but cannot contribute to team scoring, win medals, or receive official prize money and will wear a distinct kit. USATF will cover all additional expenses and will pay out any prize money non-scoring athletes earn on their own. 🔜 The full U.S. team will be named following the USATF 1 Mile Championships (April 22) and USATF 5K Championships (May 2).

@glblathletichub Of all the timelines, this is the funniest timeline (yes quite unfair though now)

@Predamame Hol up-

Don't blame me, I voted for Nader.

@jgault13 This is probably more astonishing than the 800 time

50.10 split for Keely Hodgkinson on the 4x400 anchor -- fastest of the entire race! -- less than an hour after winning the 800m world title (in 1:55.30, the #2 indoor time ever). What a night.

@TheErinBrown Not beating the Asafa allegations

Kishane Gets Silver Again😭🕊️🕊️🕊️

@iam_deevhyne @TrackGazette Kishane not beating the Asafa Powell allegations

@TrackGazette "added to his collection of silvers" is crazy work 😭😭😭

Jordan Anthony 🇺🇸 is the World 60m Champion!!!🥇🥇 He strikes GOLD at the World Indoor Championships in Torun with a PB & World Lead of 6.41s. Now the 4th fastest man in history. Kishane Thompson 🇯🇲 added to his collection of Silvers, finishing in 6.45s, while Trayvon Bromell 🇺🇸 got Bronze with the same time.

@CTDemocrat8 They're amongst the most vulnerable on fundamentals, but probably amongst the least likely to be caught sleeping

I find it interesting how a lot of people think the most vulnerable R incumbents are Kean and Lawler since I def disagree

@TheErinBrown Yea my personal opinion for a while was that the 10K should go to the roads. 5K is pushing attention span but is probably the limit of what can be a stadium event

Track & field has way too many events. The sport is trying to be so inclusive that it’s become impossible for the average fan to follow. Nobody knows what actually matters. Move the long distance races to the roads, cut most of the event list, and yes get rid of field events from the pro product. A simpler sport is a marketable sport.

@electionsjoe Chaos election timeline

OH GOD NO, PLEASE GOD NO

@_fat_ugly_rat_ Truly no one knows election LMAO

Very strong result for Crockett from Fort Bend

@Blake_Allen13 @admcrlsn This

@admcrlsn Maybe not a formal call but I think an “I would be shocked if” could be warranted depending on other datapoints

PSA that anyone that calls this race before 10pm ET — when Dallas County Election Day drops — is a deeply unserious person.

@umichvoter No

The last 3 #TXSen polls really pushed up the confidence on Talarico. But would you be surprised if Crockett won?

@PW26228 @stevemagness On paper, it seems like top 3 here, and the last spot is a discretionary pick based on World Rankings of who isn't qualified from this race. But who knows now.

@stevemagness How does the selection work in reality? If two of the top three declined a place, would it go to 4th & 5th in the first instance. Or can the selectors pick who they want?

This is a really crappy situation. Sucks for all involved. But we can do the right thing... -Organizers & USATF should own it. Pay prize money to those who lost out. -It was pretty clear who'd make the world team. Athletes should do the right thing and give the spots to them

@VoteHub No one knows election

Texas DEM Primary Polls 1/21: 🟣 Crockett +1 (Slingshot) 1/31: 🟣 Crockett +8 (YouGov) 2/12: 🟠 Talarico +4 (Impact) 2/16: 🟣 Crockett +12 (YouGov) 2/22: 🟣 Crockett +18 (UT Tyler) 2/24: 🟠 Talarico +12 (Blueprint) 2/25: 🟠 Talarico +6 (PPP) 🆕 2/27: 🟠 Talarico +5 (Emerson)

@jgault13 Just purely off an Ethan Shuley comparison, his HM would probably mean a 2:08 in his legs now; probably slightly faster

Ruichi Hashimoto finished 39th in 2:11:21. Final splits 1st half: 61:29 2nd half: 69:52 Seems pointless to waste decent fitness by going out so recklessly hard for the first 13.1

@TrackGazette This man is a prodigy and is on the way to PV GOAT, if Mondo hadn't existed 🙃

6.17m!!!🤯🔥🔥 World Lead ☑️ 2nd best alltime ☑️ Emmanouil Karalis 🇬🇷 has gone over a massive 6.17m in the men's Pole Vault at the Greek Indoor Championships!! He becomes the 2nd best Pole Vaulter in history, only behind Mondo Duplantis. Wow!
