Regina George goes in heat 5, and she is expected to qualify as either 2nd or 3rd. A very long US college season is expected to slightly affect her performance, but would not be surprised if she makes d finals.

Yeah, his tournament is over as his time won't be amongst the 6 fastest times outside the top 3 in each heat.

Re: Countdown To World Athletics Championship (for Nigerian Fans) by akintun: 12:50pm On Aug 10, 2013
Nigeria has entered 3 runners 4 d female 100m. Their performance would give us an idea of how dey would be able to compete against d Ukrainian and others 4 d bronze medal.
Re: Countdown To World Athletics Championship (for Nigerian Fans) by deene: 1:35pm On Aug 10, 2013
so sad for the Nigerian in the 800m ... I guess our hopes wil start coming up this afternoon.

#teamnigeria let's go!
Re: Countdown To World Athletics Championship (for Nigerian Fans) by olapluto(m): 2:55pm On Aug 10, 2013
As for Leo Momoh, I think he did well coming to world champs. Now he has the experience, he can only improve. Looking forward to seeing Omolara Omotosho and Regina George in the 400m heats. I expect both of them to make the semi finals.
For Omolara, I believe so much in her ability and hunger. She always turns up
Re: Countdown To World Athletics Championship (for Nigerian Fans) by Nobody: 3:05pm On Aug 10, 2013
Omolara is through to the next round

Good to know that they are being tested.

It also puts the blessing haters to shame. She works hard and she deserves everything good that comes in life.
