The Meeting AREVA, Paris Diamond League was a huge success on July 6. French athletes gave the 50,236 locals something to truly cheer about, from Mahiedine Menkissi-Bennebad’s French and European record in the 3,000 meter steeplechase of 8:00.09, to Lemaitre’s third and Vicaut’s sixth and PB in the 200 meters. Pascal Martinot-Legare took second in the 110m hurdles, to Bob Tahri’s fine 3:33 in the 1,500 meters.
