Emilie raises the bar again.
Emilie Blackwell U17W competed on Sunday in the National Junior league at Eastbourne.
Looking for higher level vault competition before next weekends Southern championships.
She came in at 2.85m to win the competition, then cleared 3.00 first attempt and p.b. 3.21m on a very lucky third attempt, which not only saw the bar turn right over and stay on the pins but also survived her pole bouncing off it.
She then cleared 3.31m first attempt to set a new club record by 16cm. Followed by two good efforts at 3.41m.
She added a second place in the B 100m a new p.b. 13.5 and a third place in the High Jump adding 8cm to her p.b. 1.50m.
Add a 4×100 relay and an very hot cloudless day she did go home rather on the pink side!
