Dee Dee, maybe I’ll try again another time. Thanks, that is encouraging. I was able to use Watchathletics for the TV but they skipped some, missing the Women’s 4×400 that I really wanted to see.
You forgot to mention thats a record too
I hope they go from strength to strenght
Hope they get sub 43:27 by Champs
