4.89 is 16' 0.5" for those of us who are metrically impaired. Thank you "Big Green Book". If I didn't keep it in my track bag I would be lost.

The Sovereign LORD is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
he enables me to go on the heights.

it was just on tv, pretty impressive jump considering the strong side wind and she cleared it with some ease!

Russian Woman Breaks World Pole Vault Mark


By KRYSTYNA RUDZKI, Associated Press Writer

BIRMINGHAM, England - Yelena Isinbayeva reclaimed the pole vault world record Sunday at the Norwich Union International meet, and world champion Kim Collins led from start to finish in the 100 meters.

Russia's Isinbayeva cleared 16 feet, 1/2-inch, breaking the previous mark of 16 feet, set by Svetlana Feofanova on July 4 at Iraklion, Greece. Feofanova had bettered Isinbayeva's record of 15-11 3/4, set June 27 in England.

"It's crazy, it's amazing, it's fantastic," a giggling Isinbayeva said. "England is a lucky country for me."

Feofanova, Isinbayeva and Stacy Dragila (news - web sites) have taken turns breaking the standards in the women's pole vault the last couple of years â€â€
