Congrats to Wojciechowski!

Awesome competition! And thanks for everyone here for making it even more entertaining!

We should seriously do this more often! How about tomorrow? ;)

I'm gonna try and hunt for a good feed when I get back from work.

Good night from Australia!

Great fun!! I think the site should be "www.sautalaperchepower.com" today in honor of the French coverage. NBC hasn't shown that much pole vault in the aggregate over the past 10 years.
May the Force be with you!

Well, that was a great competition ! Now it'll be hard to re-focus on my work...
I'll try to find a similar coverage for tomorrow, with justin.tv or myp2p.eu there should be something, I'll keep you posted !
