Mageean already qualified for the Olympics in this event.

Great run by  Lurdes Manuel in the women’s 400m, and she’s rewarded with a massive PB but most importantly an Olympic quota!

 Jordan Geist with another PB here in men’s shot put, with a best mark of 22.09m! (His previous PB was 21.74m, which was set at this competition)

 Alexander Doom continues his strong start to the season with a new PB of 44.44 in the men’s 400m, 0.01 off Borlee’s NR!

Natalia Kaczmarek won in 50.09. This is as promising as it gets for her at this stage of the season.

 Ernest Obiena’s pole snaps on his 2nd attempt at 5.72m.
 

He skips, and will have one attempt at 5.82m. 
 

Edit: Not to be, and he’ll finish well down in 7th place with a best mark of 5.52m.

1:43.51 WL for  Djamel Sedjati in the men’s 800m!

Marcel Jacobs is still disappointing and I don't really believe he will go under 10 seconds in this season. For him the main goal should be the relay, where the Italians have a chance to win a medal in Paris with perfect changes.

Mondo time!  Going for 6.25 WR.  1 miss

 

Conditions not great.
