Estonian Indoor Athletics Championships

The Estonian Indoor Athletics Championships (Estonian: Eesti talvised meistrivõistlused kergejõustikus) is an annual indoor track and field competition organised by the Estonian Athletic Association, which serves as the national championship for the sport in Estonia. First held in 1963, the competition was established during the period of Soviet occupation, thus was limited to a sub-national scope for the Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic, as Estonia's athletes still competed at the national Soviet Indoor Athletics Championships. The Estonian Indoor Championships became the undisputed official national-level event for Estonia in 1992, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.[1][2]

gollark: RUST!
gollark: It's got no IO, no type system, makes basically all programs convoluted and complex, and is hard to write.
gollark: Untyped LC is just bad anyway. People don't care about speed much in their decision to ignore it.
gollark: Just fixed a WHYJIT compiler bug!
gollark: No, it's not good for projects because it's just not suited to any actual applications.
