Stars and Competitors need to be cognizant of time, distance, and height associated with eligibility to participate in each event at the Olympics. No Athlete capable of running the women’s 100m in 10.47seconds should compete with someone who can barely run the distance in 12.47 seconds. Get real will you? Here are the Qualifying Standards by Event.

Paris Olympics 2024 is almost ready to welcome all. Whether you are a Track and Field fanatic or not; Flights, Hotel, Events Tickets, Seats, and plans for post event activities are completed. All Athletes planning to participate at the Paris Olympics July 26 to August 11, 2024, are aware that Fans consider them capable to step on the podium. Athletes are working extremely hard and by June 2024 some will declare that competing is not the operative, winning in Paris is. If you are not near your best Time, Distance, or Height in June, you will be challenged in the Paris Olympics.

Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, Shericka Jackson, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Julien Alfred, Marie Jose Talou, Gabby Thomas, Danielle Williams, Jasmine Camacho Quinn, EJ Obiena, Devynne Charlton, Anthonique Strachan, Zoe Hobbs, Nigel Ellis, and Antonio Watson has one thought in mind, and that is winning.

The camps are quiet. Not much news about the Big Three. The big 3 as in Elaine Thompson – Herah, Shericka Jackson, and Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce. Feels like people are in recovery except no significant races have been run. There has been competition but none with any notable fan fare. To date here are the Athletes that made the cut.

Track and Field Season 2024 is the year of the presumptive Triple Double in Women 100m and 200m at the Olympics. Avid Track Fans believe 2024 is the only year in History for that spectacular occurrence. One exceptional Athlete is two thirds there. Let your imagination run wild. You might have the experience.

Some athletes had an off year in 2023 but with fortitude, they bounced back and salvaged their season. Fans are happy to see that Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) through belief and resilience is presumed prepared for the 2024 season. She should have a 2024 season equivalent to 2021. Expectations are that she will join the 200m chase to break the world record of 21.34 seconds. With some effort, ETH can break the 100m world record of 10.49 seconds. Her performance should produce a time of 10.47 seconds. Track Fans cannot imagine Shacari Richardson or Shericka Jackson running the 100m event faster than 10.65 seconds.

Fans are expecting performances in the Women 200m event to be above the Elaine Thompson Herah line of 21.53 seconds. Athletes, whose 200m performance is slower than 22.00 seconds, should consider participating in another event. Fans are anticipating the Olympic winning time in Paris to be 21.24 seconds. These two Stars – Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson Herah are planning to assault the current 200m record of 21.34 seconds. Believe it or not.

Regardless of rumors about Achilles problem, Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) should return to Track shape. The Queen of Women Sprinting is moving forward with her preparation for Paris 2024. MVP Track Club is not a need or of value in the way forward for Elaine Thompson Herah. Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will acknowledge that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated. She will have a chance to complete a Triple Double of the 100m and 200m at the Olympics. She will have an opportunity to add some granite to her already cemented Track and Field career. Her Legacy, despite a sub-par 2023 season will be forever known.

Women 200m event has become the Shericka Jackson Invitational. Gabby Thomas has significant work to do. Shacari Richardson is unlikely to contend for the Gold medal in the 200m. When ETH returns in 2024 the excitement level will rise in this event. Do not be surprised if Shericka Jackson is challenged. Hold on to your hat if you need it for Church Services. When those Stars come around the bend at Paris 2024, remove or lose your hat.

Women 100m Hurdles will be the Blue Ribbon event at Paris 2024. The competition will be fierce. The field will be talented. On any given day, any of the participants can win that event. The margin for error is low. Whoever clears the 3rd Hurdle first will have the best chance of winning the event.

Women 400m Flat will be competitive. Mari Leidy Paulino appears to be ahead of the competition. The question now is can she run faster than 47.60 seconds and can she deal with the pressure. When Sydney McLaughlin, Salwa Eid Naser, Gabby Thomas, and Shaunae Miller- Uibo are ready to perform, it would be interesting to witness performances and result. However, Mari Leidy Paulino will be a Factor.

Stars know that getting home for Dinner quickly is the key to securing a Gold Medal. The Tail Gate Party continues.

Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce is expected to be competitive in the 100m and might get a Silver or Bronze medal in the event. Fans do not believe Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce will be a Factor in the Women 200m Final in Paris 2024 but strange things happen in Track and Field. She will be an asset in what is expected to be a competitive 4X100m Relay.

Track and Field Season 2024 will be Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce last. She came, saw, and conquered. She performed victoriously, hugged competitors, shook hands, and prepared for more challenges. Despite apparent dominance, she remained respectful and conducted herself as a class citizen of the world Athletic Community.

There is Excitement and Entertainment in Track and Field. Going forward in the 100m and 200m events, Stars will have no time to keep anything in Reserve, they will leave it all on the Track. The moment a competitor’s feet is off Blocks, Stars will BOOGIE. Stars should remember to treat competitors with respect. The competitive conduct in Track is “Good morning”, “Good afternoon”, and “Good Night” – Meet me at the Tape.

Expectations are Elaine Thompson – Herah will join the 200m chase to break the world record of 21.34 seconds. With some effort, ETH can break the 100m world record of 10.49 seconds. Her performance should produce a time of 10.47 seconds. Fans are expecting performances in the Women 200m event to be better than 21.53 seconds.

Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will realize that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated.

There is much work to be done but base on performances, speculation is the following Athletes should make the Women 100m Finals – Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, Shericka Jackson, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Julien Alfred, Marie Jose Talou, Dina Asher Smith, Darryl Neita, and Zoe Hobbs. The Gold medal should go to Elaine Thompson Herah, Silver to Shericka Jackson, and Bronze to Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce.

TRACK AND FIELD FEBRUARY- 2024

February 17, 2024 by BeyondApparent in ANTHEM, Antonio Watson, Devynne Charlton, FLAG, GABBY THOMAS, JAMAICA, Paris, PHILIPPINES, shacari Richardson, Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce, Shericka Jackson, SPORTS, TRACK AND FIELD, USA, WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS and tagged Antonio Watson, athletics, budapest, GABBY THOMAS, hungary, Julien Alfred, NEWS, SPORTS | Leave a comment

(Photo by Sam Mellish/Getty Images)

February 2024 is the month for Athletes to discard the rust from inactivity, since the end of Season 2023. It is time to prepare the mind and body to compete in Olympics 2024. If the medal you received in 2023 is of the Bronze hue, then it is time to psyche yourself to obtain a prettier medal. If you did not get a medal in Season 2023, then re-focus in training and start all over.

All Athletes planning to participate at the Olympics July 26 to August 11, 2024, should know that Fans consider them capable on their best day, to step up to the podium. However, said Athlete must believe in him/ herself. I anticipate that by March at least one Male and one Female Athlete will declare that they are going to Paris to win.

These Athletes: Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, Shericka Jackson, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Julien Alfred, Marie Jose Talou, Gabby Thomas, Danielle Williams, EJ Obiena, Devynne Charlton, and Antonio Watson has one thought in mind, and that is winning.

Gabby Thomas will focus on the 200m, 4X100m Relay, and 4X400m Relay events. The 100m is not her event. She is stronger in distances greater than 100m. There is still hope that she will consider the 400m for Paris.

Fans believe that by Olympics 2024, Gabby Thomas 200m time should be about 21.5 seconds. That time might secure a position on the Podium. Women 200m Finals in Paris will be exciting. Sub 22.0 seconds will be required to get into the Final. Women 400m Finals in Paris will require Sub 49.0 seconds to get into the Final.

Julien Alfred could be ahead of schedule. Her recent 60m performance was impressive. However, the 100m is a different race. Regardless Julien Alfred is sending a message that she will be one to reckon with in 2024.

Devynne Charlton, appears to have memories of the women 100m Hurdles Final in Budapest. She is running like someone on a mission. Clearly to be on a mission is an admirable attribute but we will see what happens outdoors. That event is stacked with Talent from Lane 1 to Lane 9. Yes there will be nine persons in the 100m Hurdles Final.

Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce is expected to be competitive in the 100m and might get a Silver or Bronze medal in the event. Fans do not believe Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce will be a Factor in the Women 200m in Paris 2024 but strange things happen in Track and Field. She will be an asset in the 4X100m Relay.

Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce burst on the scene in 2008. Since 2008 to 2024, regardless of what happens later this year, Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce performed at an extremely high level, displaying her talents and making the Island Nation Proud. Now that the end is approaching for Shelly Ann, let us reflect and give thanks to God that we witnessed many wonderful Athletic performances by her.

Parting is such sweet sorrow but as fans of Shelly Ann, we should feel no sorrow as she leave the performing stage. She gave us many thrills between 2008 and 2023. Let us all commemorate her incomparable achievement accordingly.

There is Excitement and Entertainment in Track and Field. Going forward in the 100m and 200m events, Stars will have no time to keep anything in Reserve in the 200m, they will leave it all on the Track. The moment a competitor’s feet is off Blocks, Stars will BOOGIE. Stars should remember to treat competitors with respect.

GOLD SILVER BRONZE – 2024

January 15, 2024 by BeyondApparent in E J OBIENA, ELAINE THOMPSON, FILIPINO, FLAG, JAMAICA, OLYMPICS, PHILIPPINES, shacari Richardson, Shericka Jackson, SPORTS, TRACK AND FIELD, Uncategorized, USA, Usain Bolt, WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS and tagged athletics, budapest, OLYMPICS, SPORTS, TRACK AND FIELD | Leave a comment

Year 2024 could be the year that Track and Field Athletes have two Christmas. There is nothing wrong with having two Nativity scenes. The price of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh will triple in 2024 from all the hype associated with the Paris Olympics. However, this cast of characters Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, Shericka Jackson, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Julien Alfred, Marie Jose Talou, EJ Obiena, and Antonio Watson will be rewarded with Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals.

Despite being lost in the Paris 2024 excitement, where are the men? Sources say with so much excitement that Usain Bolt might consider coming out of Retirement. Can Antonio Watson run a sub 44.00 seconds? Expectations are that multiple Jamaicans might deliver in this event, at Paris 2024. Those who have been asking Glen Mills for 400m Stars see Antonio Watson victory as Redemption for Glen Mills -“One Bob”. Men 400m will be a thriller in Paris. A better script could not have been written, to highlight the Budapest campaign. Performances were at an all time high in Budapest.

The Jamaican male Track and Field squad will have a challenge at Paris 2024 Olympics. However, there is nothing to fear but fear itself. There is nothing to do but do it. If necessary, start all over.

Track and Field Season 2024 is the year of the presumptive Triple Double in Women 100m and 200m at the Olympics. Astute Track Fans believe 2024 is the only year in History for that spectacular occurrence. One exceptional Athlete is two thirds there. Fans would like to experience that accomplishment. Omg, where is Merlene Ottey. She would definitely add some fire to the competition. Someone should send her an invitation.

Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will realize that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated. She will have a chance to complete a Triple Double in the 100m and 200m at the Olympics. She will have an opportunity to add some granite to her already cemented Track and Field career. Her Legacy, despite a Sub-Par 2023 season is etched in the annals of Olympic History.

Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce is expected to be competitive in the 100m and might get a Silver or Bronze medal in the event. Fans do not believe Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce will be a Factor in the Women 200m in Paris 2024 but strange things happen in Track and Field. She will be an excellent asset in the 4X100m Relay.

Shericka Jackson has taken ownership of the Women 200m event. The event has become the Shericka Jackson Invitational. Gabby Thomas has significant work to do. Shacari Richardson is unlikely to contend for the Gold medal in the 200m. In 2024 Elaine Thompson – Herah (ETH) will raise the excitement level in this event. Do not be surprised if Shericka Jackson is challenged. There was an aura of frustration and tiredness by Shericka Jackson at the end of season 2023. Regardless when those two Stars come around the bend at Paris 2024, remove or lose your hat. The Tail Gate Party continues.

QUEST FOR GOLD – 2024

Riddle me this, Riddle me that, which Athlete has the best chance of achieving their quest for gold at Olympics 2024? Is it Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, Shericka Jackson, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Julien Alfred, Marie Jose Talou, EJ Obiena, or Antonio Watson? Regardless of who makes the Final in their events.

It is unlikely that Shacari Richardson or Shericka Jackson will run the 100m faster than 10.65 seconds. Shacari or Shericka will be Factors in the Women 100m in Paris 2024. Shacari might win the 100m in Paris 2024 but unlikely to be on the 200m Podium. The Quest for Gold in women Sprints has never been more of a contest since “The First Olympics”. Do you remember that day?

Elaine Thompson Herah and Team discontinued relationship with Coach Shanikie Osbourne. Supposedly, Shanikie was asking for too much money. Fans hope none involved traded Athlete Coach Chemistry for dollars. Elaine Thompson Herah is the one doing the Training, Dieting, and Running but the intangible of Chemistry between Athlete and coach might be worth more than the Dollars. Athlete has to succeed in the Quest for Gold for that trade to be right.

Track and Field Season 2024 is the year of the presumptive Triple Double in Women 100m and 200m at the Olympics. Avid Track Fans believe 2024 is the only year in History for that spectacular occurrence. One exceptional Athlete is two thirds there. Fans would like to experience that achievement. The physical and the spiritual is always a delicate balancing act.

Fans are happy that Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) through belief and resilience is looking good and prepared for the 2024 season. She will have a 2024 season equivalent to 2021. However, distraction could have a negative impact. The Elite Track Club environment is not expected to be perfect for the Star.

Expectations are that Elaine Thompson – Herah will join the 200m chase to break the world record of 21.34 seconds. With some effort, ETH can break the 100m world record of 10.49 seconds. Her performance should produce a time of 10.47 seconds. Fans are expecting performances in the Women 200m event to be better than 21.53 seconds. Athletes, whose 200m performance is slower than 22.00 seconds, should consider participating in another event. Fans are anticipating the winning time in Paris to be 21.24 seconds. These two Stars – Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson Herah are planning to assault the current 200m record of 21.34 seconds.

Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will realize that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated. She will have a chance to complete a Triple Double in the 100m and 200m at the Olympics. She will have an opportunity to add some granite to her already cemented Track and Field career. Her Legacy, despite a Sub-Par 2023 season is etched in the annals of Olympic History.

Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce is expected to be competitive in the 100m and might get a Silver or Bronze medal in the event. Fans do not believe Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce will be a Factor in the Women 200m in Paris 2024 but strange things happen in Track and Field. She will be an excellent asset in the 4X100m Relay.

Julien Alfred is still adjusting to Olympic level competition. Completion of such adjustment should be noticeable in 2028. An expectation that Julien Alfred will be on the 100m and 200m Podiums at Paris 2024 is probably naïve.

Marie Jose Ta Lou is a competitor and good for Track and Field. She will always win some one-off races but come up short in Olympic Finals. However, Stars will always consider her a force to be reckoned with. She could be a factor in the 100m in Paris 2024. Marie Jose Talou, Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce, Shacari Richardson, Elaine Thompson Herah, and Shericka Jackson will make it difficult for Julien Alfred to have success in the 100m and 200m. Marie Jose Talou will continue her Quest for Gold – 2024.

Can Antonio Watson run a sub 44.00 seconds? Expectations are that multiple Jamaicans might deliver in this event, at Paris 2024. Those who have been asking Glen Mills for 400m Stars will see Antonio Watson victory as Redemption for Glen Mills -“One Bob”. Men 400m will be a thriller. A better script cannot be written. The Tail Gate Party continues.

DARK SIDE OF MONEY

Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) Management, discontinued relationship with Coach Shanikie Osbourne. Could this be the Dark side of Money? Supposedly, Shanikie was asking for either $JAM-100K, $US-100K, $JAM-1M, or $US-1M. Those amounts are too far apart. Which dollars is it? Indication is that negotiations were done via Texting. This kind of negotiation should have been done Face-to-Face to prevent any mis-communication or mis – interpretation. Money is the root of all evil. The light is shining bright on envy, jealousy, and greed. Probably on both sides. $US-100K should be affordable for desired results.

Fans are asking all involved especially Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH), not to be Penny – wise and Pound-foolish. Slow down and reconsider before signing a deal with Elite Track Club. Give Shanikie Osbourne a chance to confirm her true intentions. This is an important matter for Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH). Fans have not heard much from her. Might help if she scheduled a Press Conference. She is the one doing the Training, Dieting, and Running. It might help if she step forward and tell us what she thinks.

ETH Management should re-consider. Do not deprive the Fans of a Triple Double experience. Seventy percent of sprinting is mental. The right coach will provide that mental edge. Shanikie Osbourne salvaged ETH 2023 season. Fans look forward to a quick and successful resolution. ETH is the one doing the Training, Dieting, and Running. The 2024 Season has not yet started. Therefore, Fans would like to hear her perspective on the facts. ETH is the one with a Triple Double on the Line and THE RIGHT COACHING CHEMISTRY IS REQUIRED.

Oil and water does not mix. Money and Coaching does not mix. A coach should request a fair price to work with an Athlete and not tie his or her income with that of the Athlete’s Contract. The Athlete’s contract should have nothing to do with the coach. Besides, how would a coach become privy to that information unless said coach was snooping or the information was shared. Such action begs the question, are you interested in the Athlete or her money.

The same question can be directed to Management of the Athlete. Are you interested in the Athlete or her money? Fans believe that negotiations with Shanike were incomplete and Shanike should have been asked to base her price on her 2023 earnings and add any increase because of the task. If Shanike refuse to negotiate accordingly then ETH will be justified to dismiss her. Fans would like to be sure that management is not trying to coach ETH again after the failure in 2022. There is that Looming thought. You cannot Train alone.

Fans are happy that Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) through belief and resilience is looking good and prepared for the 2024 season. She will have a 2024 season equivalent to 2021. However, distraction could have a negative impact and the Elite Track Club environment is not perfect for the Star.

Expectations are that she will join the 200m chase to break the world record of 21.34 seconds. With some effort, ETH can break the 100m world record of 10.49 seconds. Her performance should produce a time of 10.47 seconds. Track Fans cannot imagine Shacari Richardson or Shericka Jackson running the 100m event faster than 10.65 seconds. Quite candidly, Fans do not believe Shacari or Shericka will be a Factor in the Women 100m in Paris 2024.

Fans are expecting performances in the Women 200m event to be better than the Elaine Thompson Herah line of 21.53 seconds. Athletes, whose 200m performance is slower than 22.00 seconds, should consider participating in another event. Fans are anticipating the winning time in Paris to be 21.24 seconds. These two Stars – Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson Herah are planning to assault the current 200m record of 21.34 seconds.

Elaine Thompson Herah (ETH) is returning to Track shape. The Queen of Women Sprinting is moving forward with her preparation for Paris 2024. MVP Track Club is not a need or of value in the way forward for Elaine Thompson Herah. Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will realize that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated. She will have a chance to complete a Triple Double in the 100m and 200m at the Olympics. She will have an opportunity to add some granite to her already cemented Track and Field career. Her Legacy, despite a Sub-Par 2023 season is etched in the annals of Olympic History.
