Steve Cram just joked that it’s freezing tonight, only 28 degrees, so many the athletes will run in tracksuits. That put me in mind of Derartu Tulu, who won the 10,000m at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics with a t-shirt under her vest, as others – Liz McColgan in particular – wilted in the heat.
And that put me in mind of the women’s 10,000 at the 1991 Tokyo world championships, Liz McColgan destroying the field in the heat.
