Six thoughts global relays
1 Where do world relays fit?
The big question about global relatives is where it fits the track and the large image of the field. In principle, it should be the most important relay event of the year, but it will actually be in September in the World Tokyo Championships. Athletes or the required opportunities are greater than ever – Diamond Leagues, Continental Tours, Grand Slam, European Inside, World, Interior regions, as well as global relays. It does not help that last year there was global relays, and one more thing this year.
2 structures and purpose
At the beginning of the program, you have a mixed 4×400, and the last day of men and women and women 4×400, which means that athletes can run twice. It is impossible for a 2-day event, preconception and final. He said a strange thing, but with the qualifiers of the World Cup, Prilim was probably more important than final. Priority priority, I would suggest that the teams did not win, but ensuring that they would be qualified for a person of important importance. In the UK and the field funding is determined by medals won at the Olympic Games or the World Championships. The Great Britain’s sports, the financing body, cannot take less care about the global relatives. All this meant the team’s GB – and, probably, others did not choose their best athletes, but strategic athletes put it in the race to qualify for Tokyo. Then there is the question of the location. Bahamas was a place that everyone enjoyed. China is a long way from almost anywhere, receiving a visa, and there are political or human rights issues. Having two global championships (inside the world and global relays) just a month, and both seem strange.
3 meaningless results

Comparisons between countries are meaningless. There are all the best athletes at the Olympic Games or World Championships. Even for British athletes centralized, participation in world relatives was mandatory. Britain took the silver, almost gold in Paris with 4 women in Paris – 100. When the team continued in Guangzhou, Dina Asher-Smith, Daril Neita and Imani Laniot would have seen nowhere. The United States has a deep great force, but some of the athletes will be relays in Tokyo.
4 innovations
It was interesting to see the 4×100 mixed relay with the athletes’ chaos, unable to get a balance between the speed of the arriving woman and the left-going man. I remember in Yokohama 2019, watching 110 obstacles for the first time in Shuttle Race – which did not catch. Trying news in AB environments, where the results are not very important to use one of world relatives.
5 Footpath
It was very nice to see Shell-Ann. I have seen him at the 5 Olympics, including Beijing, and the world’s relays and other places of other places. He always presents himself so well to any event. He later said:

5 young athletes
From the point of view of GB, Dina Asher-Smith, Daril Nitten and Matt Hudson-Smith, but the opportunity for two 20-year-old children, both of them prepared their high international debut, and the success of Edu. Wedderburn-Goodison took everything after commenting on his move. Was equally unfamiliar. 4-Asha Philip (34) passed to Baton In 2040 there will be 34 years old. Perhaps that’s what it’s all about.
