Brilliant final leg in the Women's 4x400m by Femke Bol

One of the best comebacks I’ve ever seen.    Femke is a real tough athlete

British Olympic athlete was supplied with banned drugs by US therapist. https://www.bbc.com/sport/athletics/67733746

I wonder if it's the little fella who made the famous slacks.

He failed to make the Olympics that year. Don't think the description fits, although technically there is no UK team...

World indoors Glasgow.

Brilliant night. Almost another Super Saturday.

Gold for Josh Kerr - 3000m
Gold for Molly Caudery - Pole Vault. The new Golden girl of British Athletics.

Caudery is going to be very special, her technique is exceptional and I reckon she'll break 5m in the next 18months.

Phoebe Gill. She looks a bit special.

On the same night, in Doha, Mary Moraa, the World Champion, and Gemma Reekie, in a quite high quality field, in a paced Diamond League race, were not as fast.

I see George Mills, son of former footballer Danny Mills, is running very far and quite fast at the European Championships.

Karren Brady was pleased to see that Dean Smith's daughter won the 100m.
