Decathlete Simon Ehammer of Switzerland, won the Diamond League Long Jump Final in Zurich today. His jump was an excellent 8.32 meters. Tentoglou of Greece came in last of the 6 competitors. He seems to be off this season for some reason.

Speaking of the call . . . "I've just been informed by Brendan Foster, that's a new Gateshead Harriers record." You think?! Longest jump ever, and it's a new record for the Gateshead Harriers track club back in England. Hilarious! But he says it completely matter of fact.

And it seems that he is just a junior!

Here's the race. Jones is in lane 2.

Here's some surprising, but good news: Elliot Jones of Great Britain, ran 10.04 (1.9w) in Stratford today. His previous PB was 10.20. He had also run a windy 9.93 (3.7w) in June.

That is incredible.

At the Athlete Night Games in Japan, Hiroki Yanagita won the 100m in 10.00 (+0.3), a 0.02s PB. Yuki Koike was 2nd in 10.08 SB. In the Men's 200m final, Asian champ, Towa Uzawa, won easily in 20.11 (+0.9).

Dominic Kopek 10.07 and Simon Hansen 10.08, both with 2.8 wind.

I just checked and Sergey Bubka broke the outdoor world record 17 times, and the indoor world record 18 times!

Rohan Browning 10.05 (1.5w) in the heats at a meet in Switzerland. Calab Law 10.18. In the final Browning ran 10.10 (0.6w).

Instagram is reporting that 15 year old Bronson Hearn Smith ran a 20.90 200 meters. If that's true, he would rank #1 U18 in Europe!

"Because he was placed on IR, Larison's season is now over. He'll remain on the team's IR throughout the year, and will still be signed to his three-year UDFA contract."

Toscianka of Poland went on to win the European U20 Decathlon Championship, setting a world U20 record with a score of 8514 points!

Well, only 2 white sprinters made the finals of the 100m at the European U20 Championships. (That tells you a lot about the changing demographics of Europe). They finished first and last. The winner was Ander Garaiar of Spain with a time of 10.40 (-0.7w).

From what I am reading online, it doesn't seem like Cody Schrader has much chance of making the Rams' final roster. He had a lot of positive reports while in training camp with the 49ers, but then he was waived and went to the Rams. Basically he has disappeared since then. Another 'what if he...

Laube with a nice, 26 yd run!

Cam Skattebo sat our practice today. Bad news. "The rookie sat out of another practice on Thursday due to an injury that he has been dealing with recently. It looks like he may continue to miss more time because of it, and the longer he's out, the more likely it is that Tyrone Tracy Jr. will...

Bachman of the Raiders with some sort of non-contact leg injury. Throws his helmet down in frustration.

Hubert Troscianka is a Polish decathlete competing in the European U20 Championships. He ran the 400m in 46.21 to shatter not just the European U20 400m decathlon best, and also the world U20 decathlon best which was previously held by Australia’s Ashley Moloney. Troscianka’s time was also...

A nice article about Jonathan Edwards and his triple jump record (I enjoyed the above about Kathy Smallwood Cook. She was one of my favorites, who was overshadowed by the East Europeans.) https://www.bbc.com/sport/athletics/articles/c9qyw3842xgo

Here's a long interview with the incredible high school runner, Cooper Lutkenhaus.

He wouldn't be able to run his PB in the final after running the heats and semi-final. But who knows, maybe this injury break will do him good.

A very interesting and informative profile of Lachlan Kennedy
