Due to lack of funds, the Latvian Athletics Union was unable to fund Latvian delegation's participation in the event. Initially, also Dmitrijs Miļkevičs and Edgars Eriņš were among the competitors, but they decided not to participate, once they acknowledged the situation.

gollark: I looked this up quickly, and apparently the estimates use unrealistically high power consumption figures.
gollark: And they're actively working to decrease power consumption since it costs them things, while, again, mining basically just consumes as much as possible.
gollark: It's possible, but they're much more efficient in terms of things done per joule.
gollark: Proof of work is directly a competition to waste the most power.
