@polevaultpower I think the “Whereabouts” ADRV (3 filing failures in 12 months) is the third time he has been sanctioned. It looks like one for a +ve test. Not sure what the other was for. Thus the lengthy ban.

Maybe they should run the 400m final at the World Indoors as a pursuit race. Start 4 athletes on each bend with finish lines on each straight. 😁🤪

[Sex Matters @SexMattersOrg]

We are delighted that @ForWomenScot has been successful in its appeal to the Supreme Court, and that the position of the Scottish Government has been rejected.

The court has given the right answer: the protected characteristic of sex – male and female – refers to reality, not paperwork.
