    This is getting good.

    58-63 VO2max increase in 6 weeks with taking EPO. OMG and then passing the biological passport test.

    2:48 to 2:36 with 6 weeks of training for a marathon that would boil down as.

    I think eurosport are switching to Tour de France at 12pm. Eurosport 2 is showing volleyball from the university games.

    Quite right. I never checked. Ah well, Michelle Jenneke is some small compensation. :pac:

    How did John Travers go?


  • Registered Users Posts: 339 ✭✭vanderlyle


    Finished 9th. Good race. Lots of bumping though. Strong last 50m from the swede to pass two and take 3rd.

    Monaco Diamond League is live on British Eurosport. Men's 800 has just finished. A guy called Tuka from Bosnia has ran a world leading NR of 1.42.51 defeating Amos, Souleiman, Aman, Bosse and the two Poles. Never heard of him before but he looked great in the home straight, no idea where he came from.

    A guy who was running 1:51 two years ago. Superhuman improvement.

    His PB pre-2015 was 1:46.12. :eek:

    He ran 1:43.84 in Madrid just last Saturday.

    400m PB is 47.19, so not exactly earth-shattering. Sounds legit.

    Genzebe Dibaba takes down the 1500m world record!

    That is some meet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 703 ✭✭✭happygoose


    Hard to believe any of this is legit.

    Really hoping it is,diamond league is fantastic this year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,140 ✭✭✭snailsong


    At the finish of the 1500 only 1 athlete seemed to congratulate Dibaba. Most of them totally blanked her. Strange...


  • Registered Users Posts: 882 ✭✭✭Caprica


    I haven't really enjoyed the DL this year but tonight was great, full of so many outstanding performances. An amazing performance by Dibaba, I thought that WR would last forever, great times behind her as well. I agree about the other athletes not congratulating her she was just ignored, very unsporting, very odd behaviour by them all.

    Only downside was Gatlin...


  • Registered Users Posts: 601 ✭✭✭Slow_Runner


    Anyone notice the Darth Vader music being played in the stadium at the start of the 100m, tought that was quite apt:), 100m turning into a joke tough.
    Some great races, thought Dibaba was outstanding, has been pushing for that record all season, as was kiprop in the 1500. Also good to see Lavillenie back on form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,600 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    I have never seen a runner so composed and so fresh after such an effort.

    BTW, never thought I'd see EL Gs 1500 threatened, but Kiprop is very close.
