Discussion: Lisa JW

Did she miss out? I thought she was a couple of mins inside the international qualifier and only 30 odd seconds outside the Australian one?

That's right. She can still get in as a discretionary choice, but only if Benita Johnson decides not to run (which in turn depends on Benita getting a 10km qualifier that she doesn't yet have).

Our quads appeared to be in an equally appalling state, although she has the added excuse that her plane trip home was 23 hours longer than mine.

Kate Smyth ran 2.28 in Japan on the weekend, which probably kills any remote chances Lisa had of being picked.

Mmm, will be interesting to see the final team...
