Athlos had a feeling focused on more fun but it’s really good for athletics.
During almost three hours of the second edition of the second edition of Atlos, there were meetings in almost three hours of New York. Since the US trials in early August, we have not seen him on global stage, but his smile was so difficult to feel that he had it all season.
For the second year in a row, Atlos promised to restore what could be the path to the track. The lights were brighter, the sound, and the greater ambition. All that aimed at raising the athletes closer to the view of the scene, which you expect from NFL or NBA, where sports and entertainment share the same stage.
Alexis Ohanyan, the co-founder of Reddit and Serena Williams, have long been jealous of the athletes than competition. His idea told the strength of the story and the star in the footsteps and the field, which often struggles to connect with casual fans. It’s a bold project, turning into a run, the intensity of jumping and throw at night. Incons, the idea came again. The crowd rejoiced between events, DJs began to hit familiar, and the camera staff flowed into the flow of energy. Tracking for three hours has shown the display.
However, when he wore at night, it became clear that the athletes leaned more fun than sports. The seats were filled with people who wanted to be a part of the experiment than the Witnesses were elite performances. There were shine flames, but the rhythm of the competition never coincides with the scene scale. It felt that the two shows immediately took place, one for athletes, the other for the audience, and they did not always meet in the middle.
The British brown became the face of the night by 10.99 and 21.89 to 100 m and 200 meters. His victories are trust, his move is full of order, but they also reflected a field that was missing the best. In a season, when the world’s best sprints are maintained by world champions, Brown’s double victory stood both victory and reminding that Atlos, for all his Polish, he still rises to the world level. There is no cavity about his success, but even the most loyal fans could see that the real competition missed the night.
Another place, faith in Cipegon and Goodfe, handed over what they hoped that they would have a struggle to the Prime Minister. Kippigon, the calm strength of the trunk, took the order in the second half of the mile to win4. 17.78. His pace was smooth, his expression is an unforgivable, a sign of athlete who knows how to control the race. Still, even the fight felt a little isolated, almost separated from a wider wider atmosphere, as if he had done itself under a completely different show.
Tara Davis-Woodhall’s long jump fulfillment could be the closest athletes, they came to unite its two sides. His charismal and energy corresponded to the fun-first vision of the event. He laughed with the crowd, encouraged the applause before his jump, then flew at an altitude of 7.13 m. It was a moment that sports connected to its show-based roots, a real meeting and personality. The fans about him leaned, phones were smiling wide. For this short period, it is possible that it may seem possible.
Still, when the music faded, and the crowd deviated to the exits, the question depends on the night air. What is workout trying to workout? It is fluent in the atmosphere of the festival, but is not the depth of international meetings. Following the field, in its purest form, prosperity on tension, unknown outcome, the general heartbeat between the athlete and the audience. Athlos attracted attention, but it still checks the authenticity. When the audience sees more people who are more funer than competitors, some important risks are lost.
This does not mean that the event failed. On the contrary, its progress from the last year’s debut is clear. The performance is sharper, the production is more confident, and the unbeaten of the ambitions. But its balance is heavily turned into performance art. The steal of the evening, with long intervals and a severe crowd, works for a concert, but not always for sports, which depends on the flow and focus. The best matches, both Eugene or Zurich build a rhythm, a variety of fans from next event to another without losing the pulse of the competition.
Ohanyan’s experience is important because it requires the necessary question. What will make people about the interesting path again? Sport has long lived in its traditions, often not aware of how many classes are longing for communication. Atlos is the answer to that call. It is a reminder that the trail can be beautiful and funny and loud. But in order to maintain his promise, it must bring the same care for the quality of competition, as it does production. The next evolution should invite the best in the world to the start line and let sport, not the staging, leader’s history.
