Rollenspiele » was dedicating his gold medal to her.

Jo Pavey battled back from the brink in her 10,000 metres final at the European Championships in Amsterdam to put herself firmly in the frame for Olympic selection.The 42-year-old mother of two, who was down in 11th at one stage at the Olympic Stadium, dug in over the final two laps to move through the field as her rivals faded and she came home in fifth place in 31 minutes 34.61 seconds.It meant Pavey surrendered the title she memorably won two years ago, with Yasemin Can winning gold, but of greater importance was the fact her time was inside the Olympic qualifying standard.Indeed, it was more than 47 seconds quicker than her gold medal-winning run in Zurich, the fastest time by a Briton this year and, perhaps crucially, more than 37 seconds quicker than her rival for the third and final spot on the team for Rio, Kate Avery, has run in 2016.Pavey would appear to be in the box seat to make history by becoming the first British track athlete to compete in five Olympics, but 24-year-old Averys status as a potential star of the future, even though she opted not to compete in Amsterdam, could count in her favour.Whatever news the selection announcement on July 13 brings, though, the fact that Pavey is right back in contention is a minor miracle.She has been hampered by a chest infection which ruined her chances of gaining automatic selection at Mays trials, while last month she travelled to a 10,000m race in Boston only to have it cancelled, meaning she had to race over 5,000m instead.Paveys roommate in Amsterdam, Jess Andrews, 19 years Paveys junior and whose spot in Rio is already secure, finished seventh in 31mins 38.02secs.Dina Asher-Smith lived up to her billing as favourite for 200m gold by storming into the final in a seasons best 22.57s.The 20-year-old, bidding to land her first major senior title in the Dutch capital, looked to have plenty left in the tank as she cruised through the semifinals as the joint fastest qualifier.The history student, who does not have to contend with Hollands Dafne Schippers after the world champion opted to race only over 100m in front of her home crowd, ran a superb bend and was already well in front heading into the straight as she took 0.15s off her previous best this year.Greg Rutherford was pleased to blow away the cobwebs as he booked his place in the long jump final in his first competition for a month.The defending champion was relieved to discover the severe inner ear condition he sustained as a result of the whiplash injury he suffered last time out at the Birmingham Diamond League, which has caused him to lose hearing in his left ear, did not appear to affect his jumping.The 29-year-olds first-round leap of 7.93m was enough to book his place in Thursdays final. He followed it with two fouls, as swirling winds inside the stadium made controlling the run-up difficult, to qualify in eighth place.Elsewhere, Christine Ohuruogu in the womens 400m, Martyn Rooney in the mens 400m and Richard Kilty in the 100m all breezed through the opening rounds of their respective events.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Japan swept the judo gold medals at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics on Wednesday, taking the top spot in both mens and womens middleweight divisions.Haruka Tachimoto struck gold first by defeating triple world champion Yuri Alvear in the womens 70-kilogram division.Despite being penalized for passivity in the first minutes of the final -- and a partisan crowd cheering against her -- Tachimoto managed to pin Alvear to the ground for 20 seconds, scoring an ippon victory that automatically ends the bout.Alvear, 30, won a bronze at the London Olympics. She was Colombias flag bearer at the opening ceremony.After a disappointing seventh-place finish at the London Games, Tachimoto said she refocused her style, training in Mongolia and England, and honing a more defensive, counterattacking style that she used to defeat Alvear.The womens bronze medals were won by Britains Sally Conway and Germanys Laura Vargas Koch.A short time after the womens medal competition ended, Japans Mashu Baker took the judo gold in the mens 90-kilogram division.The second-seeded Baker, 21, defeated Georgias Varlam Liparteliani in a cagey final in which Baker managed to score only once. Like Tachimoto, he too was booed by the crowd, which expressed disapproval that Baker appeared to be withdrawing from the fight in its final minutes. But with Liparteliani failing to score, Bakers one throw was enough to win.Baker, whose father is American, trained at the Kodokan, the spiritual home of the JJapanese martial art and its most famed dojo after starting judo at age 6.dddddddddddd Baker has won four judo Grand Slam titles and took a bronze at last years world championships. He was raised by his mother in Japan and said he was dedicating his gold medal to her. She traveled with him to Rio.To be an Olympic champion was my dream when I was young, so Im very happy now, he said. Baker acknowledged that he fought defensively in the latter part of the fight, seeking to protect his slight lead by not risking being attacked by Liparteliani.Liparteliani was seeded fifth and fought at the London Olympics but got knocked out in the second round. The loss left him in tears and he struggled to maintain his composure through the medals ceremony.The mens bronze medals were won by South Koreas Donghan Gwak and Chinas Xunzhao Cheng.Japans two golds Wednesday put the country atop the judo medal table, adding to the gold already won by Shohei Ono in the mens 73-kilogram division Monday. Although Japan dominated for years at the Olympics in the martial art it developed, the country had its worst performance at the London Games, where it won only one gold.We have to perform graciously and courageously because Japan is the home of judo, Tachimoto said after her win. Judo is one of the most important sports to the Japanese people, and they expect gold medals. ' ' '
