    My heart goes out to my Jamaican brethren that fell on the rails.
    Hopefully he'll recover & he and his teammates will remember to keep an eye out for that rail.
    Congrats 🥳 on their Win also.

    For anyone wondering, the rails are specific to this one track in Pennsylvania. It is there because when they expanded the track for the relays they couldn't push outwards like normal due to the historical brick wall you see around the track. So instead, they put more lanes on the inside and ended up with lanes 1-3 being less than 400m. So the rails are there for races like 4x4, 4x8, etc so athletes on the inside lanes cut out and athletes on the outside know to stop in lane 4 when cutting in. For all intents and purposes, lane 4 on this track is the true lane 1 and the last lane that's a full quarter mile.

      they wanted to add more lanes for the sprints but since theres a brick wall they cannot extend outwards. because of this, they added three lanes to the inside of the track and the true 400 meter loop is in lane four. its not all “pennsylvania tracks” just franklin field lmfao

It has been there for a long time but this year, one too many people fell because of it. The silver color of the metal and the sun reflecting off of it doesn't help at all.
