Last weekend I attended the Grand Prix Sudamericanos Estrella Puente - Darwin Piñeyrúa.

  • María Pía Fernández did the women's national record for 3000 m steeplechase with 10'37.12.
  • 16 year old Lautaro Techera did the men's U20 national record for javelin throw with 61.63 m,  just 5 cm away from the national record.
  • 15 year old Mauro Pons did the men's   U18 national record for high jump with 2.00 m.
