Whoa, that's a surprise. Have they announced the full slate of GL events? I don't remember it being this early last year.

I guess that would answer my question.
Men
200m
800m
1500m
400m Hurdles
Triple Jump
Discus Throw
Women
100m
400m
1500m
3000m/5000m
100m Hurdles
High Jump
Interesting list. The men are pretty much unrepresented in the sprints and distances, but the women have a good distribution. They drop one uncompetitive event (women's 800m) in favor of an even more uncompetitive one (men's 400h)... And of course, the women's 400m re-enters the fray, a year too late for Team Run-Down.

Don't forget, we also need a good scoring model for any selected events. That rules out many of the field events and hurdles/steeple, regardless of GL status.

A lot of suspensions are needed before Urbas will be scoring any points.

__Marcin Nowak over 60 m, and Marcin Urbas, over 200 m began their indoor season running well in Luxembourg, in an indoor meeting. Nowak ran 60 m in 6.75 seconds, and Urbas ran 200 m in 20.97 seconds. It is too early to make a prediction. However, since 200 m is going to be removed from the world indoor championships, I can see Urbas winning one of the last medals. I can see, as well, Nowak make it to the final. Nowak has been recovering from an injury for a long time. He seems to have returned to the top shape from a couple years ago. Moreover, since a lot of the best athletes are missing from the indoor competition, Nowak's chances of making the final "on the skin of his teeth," or as the "sixth ma" seem to be realistic.

That's about as fast as I expect Urbas to run this season, but if it's an early season stepping stone, maybe he'll be upping the ante outdoor.
