Info is now posted at: http://www.polevaultpower.com/decathlon/

We hosted this event in 2006 and got rave reviews. Looking forward to topping it in 2009!

I would really like more of you geezerjocks to try the decathlon. It is SO MUCH FUN :)

It's rarely humid in Seattle, especially not when it's warm outside. Our track is cut into a hill and is very shady (I am usually chilly, even in the summer). We'll also have pop tents and such, so even if we are having a heat wave and it gets into the 90s, it is still quite comfortable at our track.

August average high temperature: 75°
August average low temperature: 57°
August average precipitation: 1.16"

This kills me to take a pass.
I know Jeff Watry runs a class event, I have been meaning to travel to Washington to see family members, I haven't done a decathlon for a couple years, I like the prospect of having all summer to train, but.....I can't get away from work at that time. A year from now, I'd be retired and wouldn't have to worry about.

Well it will probably come back our way circa 2012, so maybe we will see you then :) Normally the meet is held in July, this year the dates just worked out different for a lot of big meets.

Nadine jumped 10' yesterday before calling it. The other competitors begged her to keep jumping!
