Slight tailwind. Last LJ was -0.2.
Now -1.0 (remember the pole vault is opposite so headwind for the TJ is tail for PV)

Gio has a big clearance!

Walker comes down on the bar and misses.

Last TJ was +1.2, so I think he caught a headwind.

Sawano looked like he blew through and misses. He is done.

Hartwig misses his third. Looked like he knocked it off on the way up.

Buller bails. Last TJ +1.1. Looked like a pretty good crosswind.

They have not swung the board around yet, so I am not sure what height it is.

Gio catches a great wind and a great clearance at 5.70! TJ was -2.5 so he caught a nice tailwind.

Is a new Mexican record in store for Gio? If he keeps catching the break with the wind, he might!

Buller goes pretty quickly, trying to also take advantage of the wind, but he misses.

TJ -1.5.

Men's 2 mile just got started, Alan Webb is running.

Buller ha a nice jump at 5.80 but misses.

Lanaro is the winner! Eugene is treating him well.

Webb is pretty far behind.
