As many know, I love the olympics. But should it go ahead? I think the world needs the games but is the risk worth it. Interesting take here https://t.co/P84vscxqdF #Athletics #Olympics

[Mex @protrackmex]

I know I have a healthy bias towards sprinting but some great results at the nationals.

Just the one poll this week for the Waverley Gift. Very happy that we are able to compete this weekend after the easing of restrictions https://t.co/z5b3Jr3Mjk

[Mex @protrackmex]

Polls closed early as I didn't have time on Friday night last week to write up the multiple polls for Parkdale. Only tips for the Men's Gift due to low voting in the Women's https://t.co/z5b3Jr3Mjk

[Mex @protrackmex]

Parkdale showed how to hold a gift. We now move up the highway to Ballarat. Polls are available at https://t.co/z5b3Jr3Mjk Cast a vote.

@CobbaStevens @ParkdaleGift And why not another one with @catrionabisset off Scratch in the women's!

[Mex @protrackmex]

@CobbaStevens @ParkdaleGift Always time for a race with 2 scratch markers!

RG will every part of 50m to be competitive. The field will need a lift of around 50 metres with a target time shifting from 9.10 to approx 8.30. This would beat Ron Clarke's time from 1965.
People simply must turn up to watch this race!

@RyanGregson25 @ParkdaleGift @insideaths @Stewy_mac3 @Gpenney78 @melbtrackclub @VictorianAthLea @AthletesAust @athsexclusive @tamsynlewis Part 1
Let's look at what we know. SM's pb over 3K is 14 seconds better than RG. SM has just run a pb in the mile. His 2 mile pb is faster than the target time. He will be on scratch and chase the world record and Aus record. RG will go for a win and end up probably pace setting.

@gavschmidt @DosCook @JackHale98 Thank you Gavin. I was asked what it converted too which was approx 10.30. I also agreed that he would run faster. Needless to say that we are all impressed with the competition amongst the young lads. The future is bright and now.

Sprinting in Australia is alright. Congratulations @JackHale98

AUSTRALIAN RECORD! Hobart's Jack Hale has taken out the David Baxter 100 Yards Championship, clocking a time of 9.43 (+2.0). Jack's time broke Gary Eddy's record set all the way back in 1966. Congratulations Jack!
