Despite the pervading fear of Covid-19, athletics has been enjoying something of a renaissance in several countries. The Wanda Diamond League meetings in Monaco and Stockholm had hardly any spectators, but that did not prevent the athletes achieving top marks.
Elsewhere in Europe and America spikes were being dusted off, and competition was electric - personal bests popped up across the age groups, and meeting records were revised, over and over. That augurs well for the future, even if it takes months to get back to something like normality.
Be sure to log in regularly to World Athletics, European Athletics, and the various national athletics websites...
