in triple jump they become possessed or what

Such an heroic heptathlon for both Vetter and Dadic 

 

Vetter broke Dafne Schippers' national record, I really did not see that coming

I'm proud of our guy Rares Toader, who managed to qualify to the shot put final; it's his first major final at senior level (he is 19 yo and 2 months). He's also qualified for the Olympics, and I see a great future for him if he continues to train the way he does now. Ofc, he's not Bukowiecki (yet :D) but he can be an important contender in shot put for many years...

Andreea Miklos is an important contender in 400 ... We have some very good juniors ... Georgiana Anitei (triple jump - world champion), Ana Maria Diana Ion(16yr - 6,35 long jump), Mihai Pislaru (17 years - 47,23 - 400 m) I see a great future for us in athletics

We've always had good juniors, but somehow they step into a black hole after becoming seniors. Still, I feel Rares Toader is different, and he will be the best Romanian shot putter ever.
