byLarry EderThe Doha Diamond League took on a bigger role in 2019, as it is both the beginning of 2019 and a chance to see the Khalifa Stadium, which will be the host of the Doha WC (September 26, 2019-October 5, 2019.
The following is my five lessons from the Doha Diamond League. Special thanks to Mike Deering and the Shoe Addicts on constructing the podcast.
I have always enjoyed the Doha DL and, thanks to the host, have visited the event on several occassions. The meet has fantastic performances each year and gives us a chance to see new stars and also those emerging from their Winter coccoons.
2019 is a terribly long season, and this long season will also effect 2020 and the buildup to Tokyo. How will athletes deal with this as they chart out their plans for 2019/2020.
