  1. From Lincoln to Tokyopublished at 18:09 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Men's shot put...

    For my money, Scott Lincoln threw 21.28m in Czech Republic earlier this month and he's eased to a win here with 20.22.

    Big throw, big title, big trip to Japan to come.

  3. Studies on hold = Olympics bookedpublished at 17:57 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Women's 3000m steeplechase

    Elizabeth Bird will take on the best in the world at Tokyo 2020 after winning today's women's 3000m steeplechase having already bagged the time she needed.

    "I don't think it's sunk in yet," she said. "I'm happy my family got to come. They've watched my races online at 3am so I'm excited to celebrate with them after this.

    "I think having the extra year really helped me become a stringer runner. I had a rough start to the year so I stuck at it and was able to build on a disappointing indoor season to run fast when it matters.

    "I've put my academic studies on hold for the last two years and am due to start in August which will be a bit of a shock to the system. Getting that extra rest and recovery has made such a big difference."

    Men's 5000m

    Patrick Dever has just taken the men's 5000m title, edging out Scotland's Andrew Butchart late on.

    Butchart - in second - is going to Tokyo as he's already run under the qualifying time of 13 minutes and 13 seconds. Dever hasn't but who knows? The selection Gods may shine on him come Monday.

  6. Wow...published at 17:44 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Women's pole vault...

    Can we all please clap in unison for Holly Bradshaw please?

    She's just taken her pole and vaulted four metres 90. That is a PB by eight centimetres outdoors (three centimetres from indoors), puts her third in the world this year and is a British record.

    Props.

    I'll put it like this.... she went absolutely crazy when her back hit the mat.

    How do you say 'legend' in Japanese?

  7. About Nicole Yeargin...published at 17:40 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Women's 400m

    Nicole Yeargin only took up athletics five years ago but she's flown under the radar a little as the Scot is based in Los Angeles.

    At 23, she clocked 50.96 to have the necessary time for Tokyo before placing second behind Jodie Williams today.

    "I am just coming to let you guys know, make my name," she told BBC Scotland.

    Yeargin, who has a Scottish mother and American father, added: "Scotland definitely does play a big role in who I am," she added. "I guess that side of my family isn't the most athletic, I think I get my athletics from my dad so they are just astonished."

    Katarina Johnson-Thompson was granted a medical exemption to miss these trials so she can allow an Achilles injury to recover.

    The 28-year-old won the heptathlon at the World Championships in 2019 and she is of course a huge medal hope for the Games.

    A reminder if you're just joining us that Dina Asher-Smith ran superbly to reach the women's 100m final at 18:35 BST. In the men's the likes of CJ Ujah and Zharnel Hughes looked in good form too.

    We've seen Jodie Marsh shine over 400m, we've seen Josh Kerr and Jake Wightman come up with what's needed to get to Tokyo 2020 over 1500m and the likes of Jessica Turner and Meghan Beesley are going to Tokyo for the 400m hurdles.

    Women's 400m final

    Jodie Williams starts well and through 200 she's eating up ground, a splendid mix of power and poise. They hit the 300 and it's Williams and Ama Pipi scrapping, Williams will be too strong.... 51.02. One of the displays of the weekend so far.

    Lovely stuff. Her 51.02 was ahead of Nicole Yeargin in 51.26 and Ama Pipi on 51.33.

    The front three run the qualifying time, that's not happened too often today.

    Williams and Yeargin get spots as top two.

    Women's 400m final

    From the men to the women over 400m and and handful of this strong field have the time they need for Tokyo.

    Spike up and battle ladies, it's a scrap for a ticket to the Olympic Games.

    Emily Diamond, Jodie Williams, Ama Pipi and Zoey Clarke among the names in the blocks.

    "On your marks..."

  12. Baker takes the titlepublished at 17:07 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Men's 400m final

    The lactic acid is engulfing the eight men on the track, they need to hit 44.9 seconds to nail the necessary time. It's a big ask... Niclas Baker lands the win win 46.05 from Cameron Chalmers in 46.19.

    He screams into the air and is elated. No qualifying time but a British title. Who knows if he'll get the nod come Monday. What we do know is no one has secured a spot as of yet.

    Ojora 13.38, King 13.51, Pozzi 13.54.

    That did not go to plan.

    To be clear, Andrew Pozzi has the qualifying time for Tokyo 2020 but does not have the placing needed here today. His fate will be decided by British Athletics bosses on Monday.

    Men's 110m hurdles

    A great start from Andrew Pozzi, he takes control.... crack... he hits one hard halfway and now he's having to battle.

    To his right Tade Ojora can pounce and he does... David King nudges ahead of Pozzi too... what is happening.

    Ojora from King and Pozzi in third.

    On paper, no one makes Tokyo. Pozzi has the time but not the placing.

    Throw your cards in the air and see how the selectors handle them.

  16. Quick...published at 16:51 British Summer Time 26 June 2021

    Men's 110m hurdles final...

    You need to clock 13.32 seconds to secure an Olympic spot in the 110m hurdles and place in the top two today.

    What else can you do in 13.32 seconds? A rapid shower? Butter some bread? Bag food at the checkout?

    These aliens on track will stride over a pile of awkward obstacles and run the length of my street in such a time. Frightening.

    Andrew Pozzi waves to the crowd. He even found time for that.

    To the blocks...

    Two-time Olympic Champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, the fastest woman alive, sped to a 10.71 second win in the women's 100m on Friday, the second day of Jamaica's national athletics championships.

    With her trademark rocket start, Fraser-Pryce separated from the field at 50 metres and closed out the win to book her ticket to a fourth consecutive Olympic Games in Tokyo next month.

    "The aim is definitely to stand on top of the podium in Tokyo," said Fraser-Pryce who battled through a toe injury to take bronze at the Rio Games five years ago.

    "I mean, 2016 was bittersweet and it happened and I think I want to see what I'm able to do healthy and fit and ready to go, so I'm looking forward to that opportunity."

    Shericka Jackson, who had set a lifetime best 10.77 seconds in the semi-finals, was elated to take second in 10.82 and also punch a ticket to Tokyo.

    Lawrence Okoye, who reached the final of London 2012 as a 20-year-old and then spent seven years playing American football career in the United States, will complete a remarkable return to the Olympics after backing a pair of qualifying-standard throws earlier this month with the British discus title.

    Okoye, now 29, threw 61.71m to take Nick Percy’s crown.
