Paris Diamond League results are crazy. Researching for Olympics shows most athletes have smashed pb’s and barriers are different markers today. Women’s 1500 was insane! Kipyegon is out of this world & Jess Hull has serious wheels!
There aren’t many people in Australia who know athletics more intimately than @tamsynlewis. Here we talk about Paris, Australia’s gun middle distance runners and the night she boogied with one of the greatest of all time, Michael Johnson. https://t.co/PzJ7pE8kcS

Go the Aussies!!! Stewy McSweyn so close to that Olympic standard in a ripping run over 5000m and Torrie Lewis just beat a field that included the 100m world champion over 200m.
Our Aussies are awesome. Bring on Paris!
With a clutch third attempt clearance… significant victory for Nicola. Her first global title. First time an Australian has won the high jump at world indoors (men or women).
Joins @MelGTaylor, @tamsynlewis, @sallypearson and Kerry Saxby as AUS women to win world indoor gold.
@meagen_nay You’re a legend Meagan. Athletics have done really well on this from @WorldAthletics to within @AthsAust. I’ve been lucky to be on the journey with them and learnt so much because of opportunities provided. Having the chance/opportunity is so important.
@shanemcinnes@wwos ☺️Thank you Shane. I appreciate you saying so, as I have so much respect for you and your work. Have loved working together again these last 2 weeks!!
A marathon Sunday to remember 🤯🇦🇺🔥
