Thompson-Herah will open her season vs. Shacarri in the 100m.
I'm interested to see how she goes...how much rust/injury recovery
She joined Shelly's camp and Shelly is yet to open her season.
Hoping both will be able to peak or get near to that come Olympics

Just tuning in to the PRE...Parchment coming up for the 110 hurdles. Williams out of frame in
the woem,n's 100H. But 12.65 against a winning 12.52 is ok for now
Doubt ETH is ready for a Big race this soon in her season...But hope she does well and most important
remain injury free.

Parchment 4th 110mh but the way he recovered ground from pretty much last suggests he could still get to full Olympic readiness come July

Agree with you on ETH too
Hoping whatever going on with our vets and young males can be fixed even if only somewhat by July

Very very concerned...hope we not fixing to take Track and Field with the cricket road map.
I am very concerned. Am not prepared to rely on SAFP either at this stage on the women's side of things.
She has achieved so much glory it would not be right to expect much more from her..
With the uncertainty of ETH recapturing her old form,that leaves Jackson as the only nona fide
reliant athlete to score an individual Gold at Paris on the track.
Things are not looking good. We do not seem ready to continue the legacy in a big way in two months time.
Hope I am Wrong.

Sometimes the heart willing but the body struggles. For ETH she’s proven the other way around is achievable

Sha'Carri beat Elaine into the ground, last place actually.

Sha'Carri Richardson wins Pre Classic in her first 100m of Olympic season

World champion Sha'Carri Richardson won the Prefontaine Classic in her first 100m of the Olympic year, setting her up for the Olympic Trials next month and the Paris Games later this summer.

Richardson prevailed in 10.83 seconds in Eugene, Oregon, beating a field that included the fourth- and fifth-place finishers from last August's world championships. Plus two-time reigning Olympic gold medalist Elaine Thompson-Herah of Jamaica, who was last in 11.30.

Elaine's late season start may be of some concern. Could have been instructed to go with the motions.

Lets see where she progresses from here.

Shaq obviously was using earlier races to target this one. Good win.

Lets see Big Boy separate himself now. Have us in denial too long.

Shericka needs to drop the hammer.

Wonder if Rohan can show us a glimpse of what we saw couple back.

Will be watching.
