Armenian hurdler runs 1:03.13, once again we have to believe that she made the Olympic standard this year (56.25)

Interestingly, that's even faster than the fastest of 2 (!) times all-athletics.com has for her in the flat 400  

 

 

Her entire 400m hurdles career on all-atletics.com consists of 1 race in last years Armenian champs (1:03)

WTF is going on with the pole vault thingy?  Did they buy it at a garage sale?
