Here's some of the velocities of the best pole vaulters of all time. You'll have to do the math to figure out what that translates to in the sprints.

I believe Russ Buller's 100m time while at LSU was something like 10.33-34; very fast!!

I think the announcers at Reno said that Keenan King can run the 100m in 10.26 sec, or something close to that! :eek:

Answer: as fast as you are capable of running and planting a pole.

Yeah and I know that he ran a sub-21 200m, not sure the exact time though. He is smokin fast. Looks really light on his feet, like Russ.
