Olympic Athletics

Yeah I thought it was announced before the games that she was planning to double up?

Doing 7 events in 2 days should make the heats etc seem pretty easy tbh.

Given the times she is capable off she should hopefully make the final and maybe even challenge for a medal (silver or bronze, Pearson is nailed on for the gold).

Wow, missed that.

Who was it claiming that Heptathletes were jacks of all trades and masters of none

Medal ceremonies are happening atm. Not sure who else they are doing tonight, but currently Discuss.

I'm almost certain she was at least selected for it. There was talk of her doubling up before the games and I haven't heard anything about her not doing it.

She must have been entered for Phil to suggest she might double up...
