Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce ran 10.94 at the weekend in Kingston. Truthfully I have no idea how she does it at 38 and having achieved all there is to achieve in the sport. They will have to drag her off the track.
Of course her career will forever be tainted by the fact she's Jamaican, when Jamaican sprinters were doing doping on an industrial level.

The interesting thing is that when Bannister broke the barrier he did so with an Aussie and I think an American from Kansas hot on his heels - they were all striving to break the barrier and were edging ever closer to it in the preceding years.
Not that I am poo pooing it but it seems inconceivable that a runner with no peer competitors is going to be able to take 7 seconds off her personal best/world record. I really hope she does it because it would be an extraordinary feat.
Sounds like she will be paced start to finish by men so she should certainly be able to beat her own record. Seems a big ask to knock that much time off though

The thing in Faiths favour is that she’s never had a pacer like this before. She typically has to lead for at least the last lap, often longer.
So I think she’ll make a massive improvement, being able to shut off and be led for 1450m
Someone like Jess Hull who may also be a part of this, basically has had a pacer in Faith in every big race - so it’s hard to see an enormous improvement
I can’t see Faith getting this - but I can’t wait to see her try!

. If he physically assaulted her I can only assume he's gonna potentially face being ostracized from the sport, especially since he has a domestic violence charge against his name.
So athletics aren't like NZ Rugby then and he wont be instantly promoted to the athletics version of the All Blacks?

Armand Duplantis does it again. Another World Record! And his hot girlfriend seems very excited indeed by what he has just done with his extremely big pole.

The margin between first and the rest is crazy
Total dominance
