Hard to tell what page the results will be listed on, but it appears the Program will at least get you in the right neighborhood:

Will definitely have to rely on the internet cause the coverage here in the states is going to be very very bad ... Thank goodness for theinternet in this case !!!

So how is everyone doing ??? I'm wxpecting great things from Paris ... I truly think I can crack top 10 !!!!! Much better than where I was last year ...

Dem's some lofty expectations, but you "only" have to make up 700 points to get there. Definitely not out of the question, but it requires you having a better championship squad than those ahead of you.

If I can break into the 50's by the end of the season, I'll be quite happy, given where I started from... I think I have some pretty good championship material lined up:

Ayhan - 180
Guevara - 190
Richards - 90
Kipketer - 160
White - 180
Edwards - 120
Miles - 120

Plus a couple of unlikelies that may or may not compete and may or may not place... 1040 points would be most excellent.

By the same token, everyone on your squad is a likely point getter, barring injury:

Arron - 140
Bergqvist - 140
K. Collins - 140
Graf - 160
Greene - 120
Guevara - 190
A. Johnson - 160
Krummenacker - 60
Wade - 100
White - 180

Definite Thumbs Up

on that one! 1390 would go a long ways toward catching the lead pack...

I guess I might as well go ahead with a prediction and a challenge ... I'm shooting for 59th place after Paris. That means Micah better move up or I'll pip you by one spot. Wink

I haven't had a chance to look at my squad yet to see who is competing. But if I fall anymore I will have to get binoculars just to see you two. Surprised

I can't possibly be one of the two you're referring to? Confused

I still need to climb 25 spots to surpass you...

I thought she was going to be running just the 1500, but maybe she decided to double?

Holmes ran a SB 1:58.86 in round 2. If she can maintain that kind of form in the final, it'll be a big boost to my squad. Added to my previous predictions:

Ayhan - 180
Guevara - 190
Sanya Richards - 90
Wilson Kipketer - 160
Kelli White - 180
Torri Edwards - 120
Derek Miles - 120
Kelly Holmes - 130
Darrell Brown - 70

Keeping my fingers crossed that Holmes and Brown can keep up the pace from the early rounds...

C'mon guys, someone join in with me on the trash talking... Laughing

Looking good so far for Team Run-Down, with White and Edwards going 1-2 in excellent times:

10.85 = 100 + 95.8 = 195.8
10.93 = 80 + 92.1 = 172.1

Assuming my manual calculations are correct, 367.9 puts me nicely ahead of the predicted 300 for the event.
