Field events are clearly used as filler between track events. It was hugely frustrating to have a field final interrupted so we could rush back to a track heat!! In addition, the video archive for the National Championships contains 2 field event videos out of a total of 274 (that's 0.7%!) Perhaps its a funding thing but its not unreasonable to imagine field events taking on more popularity in Canada and consequently getting more participation and funding if organizing bodies like Athletics Canada actually put an effort into making them more visible.","date_added":"Jul 9th 2017, 7:23pm","nest":0,"liked":false,"member":[],"can_delete":false,"item_id":210246,"item_type":"video","pb_image":"i\/no_avatar.png","pb_title":"pcamrass","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=175907","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/pcamrass.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"1990700"},"1894978":{"pb_id":"106403","pb_type":"members","likes":"3","parent_id":"1894967","pid":"1894978","comment_id":"1894978","member_id":"106403","comment":"Completely agree with this - it's systemic. There was essentially no coverage of the Senior Men's High Jump competition - even though there were Olympic level athletes (Mike Mason) competing. Also comments from the commentators that they were going to the field events 'while there was a break in the action' clearly indicates that they don't see the field events as 'action'. My son is a high jumper and I am often forced to catch glimpses of him as the camera follows runners around the track. Given that Canada has World Champions in both High Jump and Pole Vault, it's very disappointing that these and other field events are given so little attention.","date_added":"Jul 9th 2017, 7:25pm","nest":1,"liked":false,"member":[],"can_delete":false,"item_id":210246,"item_type":"video","pb_image":"i\/no_avatar.png","pb_title":"kallsop","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=106403","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/kallsop.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"1897563"},"1897494":{"pb_id":"155426","pb_type":"members","likes":"1","parent_id":"1894967","pid":"1897494","comment_id":"1897494","member_id":"155426","comment":"I also find this upsetting, as a fan of field events.","date_added":"Jul 21st 2017, 8:23pm","nest":1,"liked":false,"member":[],"can_delete":false,"item_id":210246,"item_type":"video","pb_image":"i\/no_avatar.png","pb_title":"lastmountain","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=155426","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/eddy6.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"1961208"},"1894933":{"pb_id":"128902","pb_type":"members","likes":"3","parent_id":"0","pid":"1894933","comment_id":"1894933","member_id":"128902","comment":"Women's PV yesterday with 3 Olympians had no coverage, yet showing men's PV warm up now where only 1 athlete has hit world standard.
