With a bit of luck, Ciara should be racing around the same time as it’s halftime during the Ireland :ireland: v Tonga :tonga: Game.

Ciara up against Laura Muir and Faith Kipyegon again.

Yeah, it’s probably close enough between her & Muir, could go either way depending on the day, but Kipyegon would have to be favourite. On form, she’s different class

Had a great season and on form, should make the final in Paris next year. However it’s difficult to see her on the podium, without another big improvement. At this stage you’d have to say it’s Faith Kipyegon’s gold to lose.

A possible event for the Resser Olympics? Might have to reduce the distance from a mile though!

GR you do know Rhys is a Gymnast, I assume :wink:

Do we have a different thread for gymnastics and athletics?

There’s an Olympic one but Gymnast’s will tell you they’re Athletes anyway :wink:

I always thought they were more or less the same group of sports.

Typical Mayo …. Always overthinking things :smile::+1:t2:
