Athletics/Track and Field

Getting underway tomorrow with the 20km walk and 10,000m women's

Looking forward to the Athletics. Not sure what our chances are for Medals though, maybe the 50km walk,

Tallent isn't 100% fit that's why he pulled out of the 20km to focus on the 50km walk, still hopefully will medal.

Women's 100 heats on, Mel Breen in heat 7

Aussie got third in the 20km walk.

Mitch's little brother about to jump in the high jump

Did a white guy just win the 400m?

And took Michael Johnson's 17yo world record

Phelps who. Only word is BOLT

Should keep going even after London 17 world champs

Bolt is a beast! What a Champ....

Aussie girl Kim Mickel, dislocated her shoulder during the javelin. They were looking for medics to help her but they were all at the soccer teaining, it is believed that a butterfly was on the training pitch, and 5 players went down with ankle injuries.

Gotta love some of the sensationalist headlines going around. "Brandon Starc falls just short in rio high jump final after scaling the heights in previous round".

Falls just short of what? second last?

Shouldn't Brandon Stark be guarding the walls of Winterfell?

I think you'll find he's north of the Wall.

Bolt gold in the 200m, 19.79

official 19.78
