Way to go russ!!!! Arye's been telling me for the last little while that you were jumping well in practice. And after jumping 5.50m from ten steps or whatever you really have no excuses for not jumping at least 5.80m! Goodluck in the meets to come!

Congratulations to all the vaulters who jumped well. The training center is an incredible facility, with great tailwinds in beautiful San Diego. They should have more meets at the training center. Meets like this, can help vaulters get timed up on big poles.
