The Trials started on June 21. Some of the highlights so far include Ajee Wilson (yes the one from Neptune!!) qualifying into the semi-finals of the 800 and Ashton Eaton setting a new world record in the decathlon. Drama unfolded in the women's 100m final when the third and fourth place women tied! In a photo finish, where the photo was inconclusive and the time was tied down to the millionth of a second, who would get to be on the Olympic team? Decision: a run-off, to be held later in the trials. Heartbreak for Brian Clay - the Gold Medalist from 2008 in the decathlon clipped the 9th hurdle and despite great performances in 9 other events, failed to make the US team!
Here is some additional information about the schedule of events and TV times, etc.
