6:35 pm
it in me. the morning, however, belonged to arthur abele. disqualified from the decathlon hurdles for a false start he was reinstated and had the track all to himself. thank goodness he didn't fall start. all that she has. clips that first barrier. just looking for a time to gather some points, hits that one as well. there we are. bounding along, the last one clipped as well, 1161, it doesn't really matter about the time. the ideal swansong. dan 0gunshakjin, bbc news. that looks like a race i would be happy to take part in. well let's head live to the olympic stadium in munich — and join nesta mcgregor, who is there for us — ahead of a big evening of action. undoubtedly the highlight later will be the 100 metres finals later — women's and men's. yes, 100%. i must start the morning and have to agree that laura muir and have to agree that laura muir and matt hudson smith looked really,
