Molly Caudery fails to qualify for the women's pole vault final due to not getting a result. 11 women jumped over 455, 12 tied so 20 women in the final.

Thomas running reminds me little of Allyson Felix. Such graceful running.

Valarie Allman wins women's discuss. If the ancient Greeks had made statues of female athletes, then hers would've been the template.

Again on the second. Looks like he has plenty of height but he got the bar with his arm both times.
Actually, 2nd time looks like he grazed it with his legs.

All the advancements in this sport, the 100m finals best time was still the same time as 1988. Ben Johnson probably smokes these guys.

He beat the old Olympic Record by 22cm. Gonna be a while before we see someone else set an Olympic Record.
Who knows how much PEDs any of these athletes are using. Its quite sophisticated these days. Even air humdity can impact times.

I honestly think it’s extremely unlikely for someone to obliterate a world record that was seen as unbreakable set by a genetic freak who was juiced to the gills, and do it entirely naturally.
I’d assume doping is much more common than we actually think, especially because testing for it is such a reactive science.

Yeah, I haven’t seen that at all.
I just see a lot of happy people seeing an impressive athletic achievement.
It’s not always about that giant chip on your shoulder.
I Obviously dont mean this forum. Because there are much bigger forums out there discusing track and field.
