On the Track today

The first gold medals were contested on track today, with the women's 10000m and mixed 4 x 400m relays kicking off the gold rush. We dissect those races, discussing how they were won, whether the favourites lived up to their billing, and who made tactical errors that may have cost them?

We also look ahead to Day 2, which will feature the crowning of new 100m champions. Can Lyles defend, or do Jamaican take back the title, and does Jefferson-Wooden hold off Julien Alfred? The Women's Marathon and the men's 10000 are also up for grabs, and we look ahead to the favourites and likely storylines.
