The Men’s Discus Throw event kicked off at 14:00 (local time) on July 4, 2021, at Stockholm Olympic Stadium. The Temperature range that afternoon was 25°C - 27°C (77°F - 81°F).
Side Note: On the long videos (Complete Event) videos on my YouTube channel you will only hear the background sound in the stadium including the Stadium Announcers voice in the local language, English sometimes, music, the cheering fans, just as if you were sitting at the stadium watching. (some people love this format, others don't). End of Side Note.

Side Note: The Statistics shown above only include the athlete’s podium placing in championships (before July 4, 2021, the date of this Meet); it does not include any other placing or any other Discipline. The reason I must do this is that YouTube has a limit for the number of characters in their Description Field. If you need to see the athletes’ full record (showing placing like 4th, 8th 14th etc.) you may find it on the World Athletics page. End of Side Note.
