I think this is the meet where they get a DIAMOND if they break the stadium record.

This is going to be a VERY exciting meet! I would really encourage everyone to take the plunge and sign up for wcsn.com. It's $4.95 a month and that gives you access to all the archived footage as well.

Powell is relaxed and confident, 20 world season leaders descend on Stockholm – DN Galan PREVIEW
Monday 24 July 2006
Stockholm, Sweden - Twenty world season leaders will show up at the Stockholm Olympic Stadium on Tuesday (25) for the 40th edition of the DN Galan, a Super Grand Prix meeting, as part of the IAAF World Athletics Tour. The start-list of competitors have between them collected more than a hundred medals at World Championships and Olympic Games.

Powell is in confident mood

Asafa Powell is not only the world fastest man, as one of two record holders for the 100 metres, he was also the first star to meet the media in the Swedish capital. The Jamaican sprinter is in confident mood, and was relaxed as he spoke about his World record race in Gateshead last month, without any signs of anxiety.

“I didn’t have a good start, so I was quite surprised when I saw 9.77 on the clock. I was much more relaxed this time,â€Â

The broadcast will begin any moment!

M800 is going on right now.

THe bar is up in the pole vault, somebody in white just cleared something, but I am sure they won't start showing it on the broadcast until the bar gets higher.

Wariner easily breaks the Stadium record in the 400, taking it from a 44.50 something to 44.03.

Here we go... live x's and o's:

So far everyone is still in. Several people have passed 4.16 and 4.32 including Isy and Stu.

Local star Linda Persson is out at 4.32, she'll finish with a 4.16 clearance.

Kellie Suttle also out at 4.32. Rough day.

The bar is now going up to 4.42. Everyone else has either cleared 4.32 or has not come in yet.

Stuczynski passes 4.42 as well! She's gotta be coming in at a new opening height PR... unless she is actually not there and they didn't pull her name from the list, but I certainly hope that is not the case.
