Athletics TV Guide

G-Money

Is there a good athletics tv guide somewhere that covers all athletics and what, if any TV channels or online channels are covering it?

I've a funny feeling I'm going to miss some athletics that might be on, purely because I'm not familiar with the calendar and where the events are shown.

Also, is there a way to watch Eurosport online? It sounds like they cover a fair bit of athletics but my TV provider doesn't have Eurosport.

Thanks!

www.livesportontv.com will usually have any covered live on tv

few streaming sites include:

www.justin.tv
www.universalsports.com
www.flotrack.org

Also www.letsrun.com sometimes have links to streams especially for NCAAs (American colleges but usually top quality races with very fast times)

Eurosport used to cover all the Golden league races but this year dont think they bought into the rights for the DL as most seemed to be on BBC (3 or interactive mainly). Eurosport would still show alot of the major marathons and some other meets though

Unfortunately most the tv coverage is not till the summer season starts

Also there is a weekly show on Sky sports done by IAAF that can be good repeated once or twice a week. Not sure if this is on during the winter though

IAAF Athletix Weekly

Does race results as well as interviews with top athletes so can be pretty good

BBC and RTE covering the European cross country championships from Portugal on Sunday.

BBC coverage is only on the red button from 11am- 4pm so if you don't have a "red button", you'll have to tune into RTE 2 from 2pm-4pm.
That means it looks like they will only cover both senior races and short highlights of junior and U-23 races.

I wish I had that Red Button coverage.

Seems like Sky Sports has a lot of athletics coverage, although I find it hard to justify €35 a month just for those 4 channels.
