I'd put money on my local parkrun course being quicker (and 1 lap, certified distance and infinitely more scenic) - do it in Cardiff next time lads.

There’s a replay of the diamond league finals on Eurosport at 11 if anyone’s bored or just fancies it.

I would love to watch it Beanie as I am suffering from athletics withdrawal symptoms, however at 11am I really ought to be doing something around the house or garden.
