They must've just added that... I don't remember seeing any "Starter List" in the nav menu yesterday.
100 - Sturrup, Williams
800 - Calatyud
800 - Mulaudzi
Hoo-boy ... I hope they add a few more names to fill out those fields!

Now might be a good time to talk about why I absolutely detest having a championship in the middle of the season... It makes every meet that follows borderline worthless. I'd rather see top athletes spread out their efforts over a wider range of meets in a championship build-up, rather than the all or nothing swing we're seeing.

Yeah the World Champs/Olympics should be the last meet of the season... it works both ways, not only has it devalued these final European meets, but it can devalue the World Championship... eg Lebedeva... if they are in with a shot of the million. |

I was hoping he would be a late inclusion but read somewhere Gatlin definately will not run the 100m  |

Results are in:
http://run-down.com/fantasy/index.php?go=full_results
Definitely better than Rieti, but still a bit soft. At least there were a number of 800+ point scores.
Conway's and my battle continues to heat up... If Sinclair hadn't DNF'd in the 800, I might've even caught Indeurr...
... and Micah moved up another 6 spots!! Could top-50 be in the cards?
Jay, 1st looks out of the question, but you can still reclaim 2nd...
