Mods, I couldn't find an athletics thread, so I started one myself.
Please merge if there is one that I hadn't spotted....
Just wanted to highlight how good Laura Muir is/could be.
She's the best female middle/long distance runner we've ever produced in this country. She's got the talent to win the very top honors in the sport:
Laura Muir targets 1500m and 5,000m double at World Athletics Championshipshttp://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/39178573Briton Laura Muir's double gold at the European Indoor Championships has convinced her to race in both the 1500m and 5,000m at the World Championships in London this summer.
The 23-year-old Scot won her first senior medals in the 1500m and 3,000m in Belgrade at the weekend."We went for the double to see how the legs coped with a lot of rounds in a short period," Muir told the BBC.
"Hopefully, come London, I'll double up and do the 1500m and the 5K."
The Kinross athlete regards the shorter distance as her "main event" in August but said she was pleased that the schedule for the heats and finals "work really well to double up".
"I'd love to get on the podium," she added. "That would be my first global-level medal."
Timings, however, were not on her side in Belgrade when it came to celebrating her British record-breaking 1500m triumph on Saturday.
