What did people get in the ballot?

I've got 110m hurdles final, hopefully Laura Muir in the 1500m final, men's triple jump qualifying and women's final and the women's hammer on the Monday.

Particularly looking forward to the Tuesday though - first round of the 200m then van Niekerk, James and Merritt in the 400m final, Rudisha in the 800m final, Renaud Lavillenie with a point to prove to Da Silva in the pole vault final and a load of Kenyans in the Steeplechase.
 
Tuesday evening - highlights being the men's 400m and 800m finals. Also men's pole vault final. If it's anything like as good as Rio 2016, or the one I saw at Athens 2004, that'll be a treat. See you there YB!

Friday morning - first sessions of the decathlon, so hopefully the chance to see the mighty Ashton Eaton in action

Friday evening - not that great finals wise, but the women's 200m should be a good watch.

All told, I'm very happy with our lot. That Friday is going to be a loooong day but a great one.
 
Didn't get anything unfortunately. Could only apply for the first weekend which was always going to be a long shot
 
I applied for quite a few, but only got the two sessions, and one each from your selections - Monday with YB, and Friday with UL. Beer anyone?
