A 19 year old from England has come from nowhere to get Silver at the European Championships today.

BBC Article

He comes from the same athletics club as Craig Pickering. He used to run teh 100M and only took up the long jump because he could't get a run out at 100M becasue Craig kept being selected ahead of him.
 
We should post the videos of the silver medal winning jump.That's also 2 out of 3 in the long jump.I love it.Greg Rutherford is going to jump much further in the next 5 to 10 years.His speed is very good and his tecnique is almost flawless.This kid has ice in his veins.This will also inspire one of Gregs best friends,Craig Pickering.Edited by: white lightning
 
What a find, and only 19. He could be the next Jonathan Edwards.
