She did it Mess @ only 1 individual US Gold tho (and only 2 other relay Golds). I'm sure it was just a bizarre fluke tho

BARELY, they tied even to the thousandth and then we ended with a dropped baton in the men's 4x400 () and losing to ITALY. Really just puts the cherry on top of a disastrous meet for us

I really don't know what it was this year. It's not uncommon for us to not send all of our best athletes since there's usually a stronger emphasis on NCAA championships and high school nationals, but we had so many people just falter and miss out on gold or be way out of contention.

Anyway, I'm trying to enjoy the World Cup for what is because I do like the idea behind it but there's just so many nobodies who I'm not invested in at all. Not to mention that half of the fields are even smaller because China apparently didn't enter 14 of the events or something

Apparently there's controversy over her win or something because it was a dead heat and the rules state that lots should be drawn when ties like that happen

And yeah the World Cup is a cute idea I guess, I've always liked the European Team Championships for doing point-based tournaments and stuff, I'm just not keen on the coverage provided over here China are a mess only entering the field and sprint events tho They should be replaced with Japan or Australia or something if they can't/won't fill slots.
