@EilishMccolgan I was in the stands that night. Such an amazing atmosphere! The entire stadium was on their feet cheering you on.

Is this rule set by the champs? Or individual governing bodies? It feels unnecessary. Every woman in a mass race has the same opportunity to run a qualifying time. As you say, women-only events make for slim pickings. 1.2K views · 9 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 08 May 2026 Why do mens road 10K times qualify for Bham 2026 but not women? The men have pacers in these races so what's the difference? Track 10,000m races are becoming extinct like the dinosaurs. So why restrict women to “women-only” races while men have 100s of chances in mixed races? 65.5K views · 667 likes · 80 reposts · 21 replies 08 May 2026
