    Ahead of the World Ultimates this weekend, a deep dive into Jarmila Kratochvilova’s 1:53.28. Including a scene setter from Doriane Lambelet Coleman, who ran against her that 1983 meet in Munich. Also get stuck into the vitamin B12 theory.

    RT @lauriewhitwell: @utdreport This is the ninth of 10 lifts from our article, with no link. It takes time, effort to produce this journalism. We want people to read in full context, please address this properly by clearly citing where you got this from. I’ve asked privately already.

    Serious questions need to be asked of England Netball, who seem so keen on rewarding failure. Am told the candidate pool for netball's top job was small, with one insider saying: “Overseas coaches won’t touch it. No one wants to work for them.”

    RT @WomensSport: “I kept hearing, ‘The lighter you are, the better climber you will be.’ I didn’t think about the consequences. Now I have to...” @fi_tomas_ spoke with Océane Mahé about the importance of talking about women’s health, something often neglected in sports 👇

    RT @em_sandy: Just a reminder that if you value good journalism and particularly women’s football coverage, please engage with it on our BBC platforms. I work with incredibly talented colleagues. 👍🏻

    Disney's new UWCL coverage is the closest we've seen to CBBC football (derogatory). I wouldn't be surprised if we see someone gunged for making a wrong prediction or perhaps Raven will make a cameo. Keep stopping to remind myself this isn't a dream.

    RT @WomensSport: WSL club’s comprehensive pregnancy support plan features £200,000 fund, IVF and egg freezing, @KathrynBatte explains. @fi_tomas_ writes that it cannot be used by sport’s patriarchal systems to pressure women into delaying motherhood 🔗:

    When we talk about legacy, I'm not sure a 12th airing of West Side Story on BBC 2, rather than a WC final rematch between England v Canada at 3pm, is what the RFU had in mind. Hannah Botterman: "Everyone's like, that's a bit naff."

    The Red Roses have been relegated to BBC iPlayer for this year's WXV. The RFU are said to be "frustrated" that Lawrence of Arabia will be shown on BBC 2 this Sat when the team play Australia. Real apathy remains when brokering rights deals for women

    RT @bencoles_: Piece ahead of the 25th anniversary of 9/11 on Mark Bingham, a pioneer for gay rugby and heck of a guy whose legacy continues to grow with the success and expansion of the Bingham Cup. For @ObserverUK.

    Athletics’ 800m ‘cool girl club’ is an absolute vibe right now. A piece looking at how the camaraderie and the rivalry among the ‘Big Five’ could be the key to breaking Jarmila Kratochvilova’s record.

    Hundreds of athletes also waited for hours last night while armed police dealt with a security incident at the stadium. A man in his 30s has been arrested on suspicion of fraud. More here:

    Chaos outside Alexander Stadium in Birmingham. Really long queues for buses which aren’t leaving due to a “security incident” - a woman in this queue told me she’d been waiting for one hour and 20 minutes

    Great atmos at the Hydro yesterday, where England looked so off the pace against Australia & where Jess Thirlby commentating on TNT after resigning months ago has landed awkwardly. This is English netball’s big moment, but they have a mountain to climb
