Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Slow Start

I knew the Athletics World Championships were due to commence soon but absent-mindedly missed yesterday’s first day (and so Mo Farah’s win); I made up for the slow start by getting the TV on early today to see Jess Ennis-Hill complete her gold medal performance in the heptathlon, and then watched Usain Bolt overcome his slow start in the 100m semi-final and go on to beat Justin Gatlin in the final – to the relief of those who care about the integrity of the sport.
