purple track
>>142938894>track around the pitchGod rugby sevens is going to be shit isn't it?
>>142938894I hate women
>>142939110it's not a pitch it is the field field, from track and field. for discuss and javelin.
>>142939418The Rugby Sevens is being hosted in SDF before the athletics. Unless they're going to overlay more pitch on there that's likely how it's gonna look for Sevens. Granted that does look to be awfully small for a rugby pitch so I've no idea.
It actually looks blue under different lights
purple is a kino colour,dont tell me you fags hate it
>>142939826They'll probably lay some rolled grass turf over some of the track. Rugby field is minimum 112x68m. If it's a tad smaller nobody will notice in 7s anyway
>>142939826Shouldn't be too much of a problem, most stadiums have a total lawn area of about that. Allianz-Arena in München for example has 111x72, of which 105x68 is the standard playing area for football. Just roll out a bit more turf for the time of the rugby 7 events so nobody gets hurt and boom, no one will notice
>>142938894Purple is the colour of emperors isn't it?
olympic is female chuddy.
Or as they say in French, "une piste violette"(purple track)>the famous red track has created countless iconic sporting moments. >There are no regulations as to the colour of an athletics track, and the host Olympic organising committee are able to choose whatever colour they want, which is what happened at the 2016 Games in Rio, where they had a blue track
>>142939110rugby is shit regardless
Soulless fact: it's purple only because one of the sponsors (a fucking bank) paid for it
>>142944749Lol this. It's a sport made for cretins.
>>142942061This is disgustingly cisnormative
>>142938894it looks like shit
In Michigan, on the southern outskirts of the Detroit sprawl, Woodhaven High has a purple trackSchool cools are purple and white and the student paper is the Purple Pulse
>>142947635That's what it looks like
>>142947653looks dope
>>142938894kino
>>142947653>tights under shorts>that headbandcringe kid
>>142938894That field in the middle looks like an AI tried to create a soccer field and it made some fucked up artifact instead
>>142947635Neat!
>>142938894You know what? I’m thinking this is based.
>>142938894K I N OINO
Purple is a nice colour. Better to be purple than blue, I dislike blue tracks.
ith a track that was different from what we had seen, to maintain the creative approach that the Organising Committee has had since it was set up, to go a little bit outside the box,” he explained, before elaborating on the choice of this shade as reminiscent of lavender.“The look of the Games includes three colours for all the competition venues: blue, green and purple. We decided on this purple track with different tones: lighter for the track, darker for the service areas, and grey for the turns at the end of the bend, reminding of the ash-coloured tracks that were there 100 years ago for the Olympic Games Paris 1924.”
>>142954169So why is the athletics track of the Stade de France purple for the Olympic Games Paris 2024?explains Alain Blondel, sports manager in charge of athletics for Paris 2024“The big part of the job was to come up with a track that was different from what we had seen, to maintain the creative approach that the Organising Committee has had since it was set up, to go a little bit outside the box,” he explained....
>>142939418What's the discussion about?
>>142942061Why does she look bri'ish?
>it's made by italian company Mondo, which has provided the olympic track since Montreal 1976 italian excellance
>>142954227This purple colour, never seen before for an athletics track, has been the result of a long process “We had to work hard on the colours, so that they came out in the best possible tones to highlight the athletes. It's a track, it has to be pretty, but above all it's a stage on which the athletes are going to perform. What's really important is that the colours and the athletes stand out,” said Blondel, a former European decathlon champion.
>>142956825Black and purple go well
>>142944749>>142947040Yes but this rugby is actually mildly watchable and is less followed by the absolute worst people.
>>142938894Wtf I love lavender now
Like the iconic lavender fields of Provence
>>142944150The French just got that artistic flourish, don't they? What an uncalled-for eyesore.
>>142938894looks nice idk
>>142956825What Blondel says there makes no sense.Too much money thrown at the games, some design people got them some.
Purple track, purple track
>>142947653timmies
>>142954813Mondo says the Paris track is its fastest yet, 2% faster than Tokyo's in 2020. Beneath the lavender lies a rubber track with two layers. The lower level has honeycomb cells, where air absorbs the shock of your foot landing, then pushes out, feeding the energy back as your foot takes off
>>142947653WOOO WOODHAVEN YEAH
>>142963023Tracki riggitini
>>142963023What does 2% mean here? It won't make every time 2% faster, that would be a huge jump
>>142963481Hold on to your butts
>>142963678Imagine ...That would mean that someone who normally runs 10.0 flat suddenly runs 9.8. Worlds apart. And someone running 9.8 would almost run a 9.6. It would almost be impossible not to break pretty much every World Record then. If it's 2% faster in that sense, Usain Bolt's 100m record would be a 9.39 - and that's without acknowledging that the 2% slower track in Tokyo was already much faster than the one in Berlin, where he ran the 9.58. Or other improvements, for example regarding the shoes.400m runners would shave off almost an entire second.If we ever get a track like this, you'd almost have to ban using it, it would be too powerful
>>142938894Ugly, Olympics just ruined.Rio 2016 was blue (and ugly) only because the Stadium was already built, it was from the Pan-american games from 2007 and they would'nt build another one just for the Olympics.Orange or nothing.
>>142942003here we say its the colour of sexual frustration
>>142938894thanks doc
>>142963200kek
>>142968061:^)
People surveyed in the United States and in Europe associate purple color with royalty, rarity, piety, magic, and mystery.The color makes places feel more vibrant and inspired
As they say in France, “Ça y est?”
A white track would be cool but ...>Running is "such a mental, psychological game: there's definitely something there with the visuals, the colours," she adds.>"The only easy colour for rubber is black, that's the colour for tyres," observes Mr Bomfim.>"Any rubber that is not black will be a challenge. One that is almost impossible is white," he notes.
>>142944150>which is what happened at the 2016 Games in Rio, where they had a blue track>a blue trackYO LISTEN UP HERE'S A STORY
>>142977973...'bout a boy born Bolt blazing on a blue track >in Rio for a historic 3-peat
>>142944749>>142947040Kill yourself at the nearest public highway asap
>>142961026I leld
>>142939110some countries can afford more than one field per city
>>142954314The eyes are slightly too close together
Purple BitchIYKYK
>>142939418"Discus" Nigel
I think the rugby field is next door in the same "Parc".
>>142939418For me, it’s the field field from track and field.
>>142954169>the ash-coloured tracks in 1924Imagine thinking the past was actually black-and-white lmao
