The Gateshead meet was the first Diamond League meeting in 2021. And Mother Nature put some challenges against the athletes: wind, rain, and cold.
The performances were impressive, even if some of the distances and times were not. Doha will be warmer this coming weekend.
We shall see how the season is beginning with these two meets. And special thanks to the officials who braved the tough conditions, and the 2000 socially distanced fans (they are a bit goofy, don’t you think?).
