waiting for athletics and diving

^ Athletics is on the red button now, although it's just heats

Dai Greene pulled out of the 400m Hurdles, only it's a pisstake the amount of times he's withdrawn from stuff through injury, I get that he's been out of action for about 5 years due to surgeries and injuries but it's not like he's getting any younger - all these preservation tactics are just prolonging inevitable retirement

[Twosugars]

Dai has been very unlucky over the years

The fire at the pool is a mess

I love all the lasers tho

[Headie]

Just catching up on the red button coverage now, why are we hearing the Long Jump/Hammer Throw commentary but seeing the 100m races?? Hope they fix that for tomorrow

[Headie]

Pretty poor opening day for GB Athletics... only 3 of the possible 7 athletes made it through in what were supposed to be pretty easy heats... and they all had to qualify a 'q' marks instead of auto qualifying.

Tomorrow is when the real Athletics action starts tbf

What didn't she say sis! Lmao, mostly just casual shade every couple mins

[Ross.]

Our Helen Skelton deserves to shine again though why has she been axed

[Jack_]

Not Efimova vs Peaty

Looking forward to this

[Ross.]

Efimova vs. Peaty is a MESS

[Ross.]

Not Peaty scalping Efimova

Becky in the studio screaming?

The Russian charging on the freestyle leg was a scream

Great race

Here she goes about Adam vs Efimova <3

[Ross.]

Screaming I KNEW Becky would be cackling at Efimova

[Headie]

Efimova is only 26 which means we've got at least another 4 years of Becky dragging her <3

[Jack_]

Oh I just googled and appaz they're doing another one in 2022

Makes sense

[Headie]

I'm SO excited for tomorrow, the Men's and Women's 100m semi finals and finals, there's a very good possibility of us snatching both Golds

I'm most interested to see who's gonna come out on top between Hughes and Prescod (if Vicaut doesn't beat them both )

This elimination cycling track race is my favourite non-Athletics event I think, it's so fun to watch <3

Is it a standalone event as well or just part of the Omnium?

Stand alone in everything but Olympics. Laura Kenny won it yesterday. It's been her speciality event.

Katie Archibold!!!

Is the mixed relay in the Tokyo programme because that is so exciting and I need Peaty to get more than one medal x
