As it is already a well-known fact that London, according to the decision of the Council of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), will host the World Athletics Championship 2017. It has been 5 years since the Great Britain’s capital was welcomed by the best athletes, within the 2012 Olympic Games. This year from the 4th to 13th of August London will gather, but this time exclusively athletes from all over the world, under the watchful eye of the world’s media. 

Unfortunately, Russian athletes will not participate due to the suspension from the international competitions, but their individuals will be able to compete as “neutral” athletes, and only after fulfilling certain test criteria.

If we take into account that Usain Bolt has announced withdrawal from the sport after this championship, it is not surprising that the organizers received more than a million requests for tickets for this event last year.

More to come….
