The final day of the three-day event in Glasgow will be shown live from 1 to 4 pm central today on CNBC

I think NBC dropped the ball not showing the Saturday events live on CNBC/

So far a really strong showing for the US.
Christian Coleman and Noah Lyles went 1 and 2 in the 60 meters.

Ryan Crouser again dominant in the shot put, and Grant Holloway almost broke his new world record in the 60 hurdles.

In the distance events, Yared Nuguese got silver in the 3000 for his first global medal that he was getting ever closer to.

The big surprise has to be Ellie Purrier St. Pierre winning the women’s 3000, running down the Ethiopian champ Tseguy.

Among big name athletes from other countries, Femke Bol set the indoor 400 world record and will compete in the 4x400 relay today.

Karsten Warholm finished second in his 400 meter (flat) race.

Today, we will see if Bryce Hoppel can medal in a relatively weak 800. Also Cole Hocker has looked really sharp in the 1500. He or Hobbs Kessler can grab a medal there imo.

Let me use this time to shite on NBC. The Peacock stream is almost always 4-5 minutes behind the BBC and World Athletics streams because they're showing that many ads. They've skipped entire heats to show more ads, then show them later and pretend they're live.

Interestingly, CNBC has shown damn near everything as long as you avoid the spoilers and are fine recording and watching stuff 15 hours after it happened (Friday and Saturday events).

Since this isn’t the Olympics, it’s relatively easy to avoid spoilers. The only race that was “spoiled” for me was the men’s 60 on social media.

I know Peacock is ostensibly live, so what you’re saying is very frustrating. I don’t have Peacock though.

What are they showing on NBC right now? Is this tape delay?

I guess I answered my own question after watching Bol and Holloway just now. Thanks for bringing the races to my attention.

Do most major track stars take part in Indoor?

I would say more than half of the people who have events that are eligible.

Lyles, Coleman, Bol, Warholm, Crouser, the female pole vaulters, Mondo, Nuguese, Kerr, Holloway, etc are as A list as you can get.

But a 100/200 specialist may not show up.

They often run off events i.e. milers running 3k and hurdlers and steeplers running flat events

The men’s and women’s 1500m were both fantastic.

That was an amazing performance for US mid distance running.

Gold in men’s 800
Silver and bronze in men’s and women’s 1500
Gold in women’s 3000
Silver in women’s 3000

This wasn’t an Olympic field but still a very strong one.
