A couple of major casualties in the 800m Euro U-20 trials heats. Jack Kinrade & Joshua Mungin, who both have the standard, crash out in the heats. Jack Organ very lucky to get through after being caught on the line after slowing down.

I spoke with Michael Johnson this morning. He told me that an investor pulling out caused Grand Slam's "major, major cash flow issue." A source told us that the investor walked away from an eight-figure term sheet after Trump's Independence Day tariff announcement.

Laura De Witte 🇳🇱 has announced her retirement from professional track & field. The 29 year old has been a stalwart of the Dutch 4x4 team, notably winning European Gold in 2022 as well as sixth at the Tokyo Olympics. She also won 400m bronze at the Euro U-23’s in 2017.

meets.rosterathletics.com/public/competi… Euro U-20 trials start tomorrow. Jake Odey-Jordan domestic trials debut. Innes Fitzgerald in the 3k. Teddy Wilson & Mabel Akande favourites in the 100 Chevous & Henrich favourites over 400m. Stacked men’s 200, women’s 1500 & men’s 800

A late entry for the UK Euro U-20 trials is Innes Fitzgerald, who will go in the 3000m, and will be joined in that event by Jess Bailey. If selected, they would be bar far the favourites in Tampere with their seasons best 10s and 30s clear of the rest of Europe.

The fact that trials are at Birmingham and the Women’s 400m has 25 entries mean Hopefully it will be 3 semi’s and 2Q + 2q for each heat rather than the 4 semis and 1Q + 4q

A new list has been issued of acceptances for UK athletics championships - major absentees. No Matt Hudson-Smith, Keely Hodgkinson (selection if form shown) No Okoye, Mitchell-Blake or Lansiquot. Ama Pipi, Nicole Yeargin, Louie Hinchliffe + Morgan Lake are now on it.

Athlete A having success with Coach X doesn’t necessarily mean that Athlete B will/would have similar success with said Coach X. A,B and X are all human beings and there is usually no constant when humans are involved for a multitude of reasons.
