by Larry EderOne of the finest meets of season with a strong crowd. The Men’s 100 meters, with Justin Gatlin winning in a world leading 9.80 to Tyson Gay’s 9.93 and Mike Rodgers 9.98 was one of the highlights. The epic battle between Kirani James and LaShawn Merritt, where James ran 43.74 to 43.92,giving James a 7-5 victory level over Merritt.

For France, Renaud Lavillenie’s win in the pole vault at 5.83m and Pascal Martinot Lagarde’s masterful hurdle victory in 13.06!
On the women’s side, Eunice Sum’s 800 meter victory was very high level, but Michelle Lee Ahye’s win over Murielle Ahoure, both in 10.98 was gripping. The women’s 3000 meters, where Mercy Cherono ran down Genzebe Dibaba in a last lap of 60 seconds was pretty boring, until the last lap.
In two days, AREVA Paris!
