Seems like a pretty interesting first day. I got a message that the weather wasn’t too bad. Winds fluctuated which would have made the horizontal jumps a bit tricky, and there was a few rain drops during the men’s 400m.

Hey KK,
no Rawlinson in women’s 400 mH? Sorry, if I am missing something… How is she doing? Thanks!

Didnt she recently have surgery?

Had some damage to the joint in one of her big toes cleaned up surgically early in January and that was probably a smart tactic since it won’t be an issue at the business end of everyone’s most important season ever - this Olympic year.
