Telstra Melbourne, Powell, Wariner, Mottram Star!

Just a little meeting in Australia, but some huge results! Asafa Powell, who had been having some injury issues, ran a nice clean 10.04 to open the season. Jeremy Wariner ran 44.82 for one of the fastest opening 400 meters even, and in February!
The UK’s Andrew Baddedly rna a fine 3:38.24 to take Bernard Kiptanui Kiptum of Kenya, who ran 3:39.41!
And if there was any question if Craig Mottram of Australia was back, his 13:11.99 complemented his recent 7:34 in Boston last month! Shadrack Kosgei of Kenya was second in 13:13.51.
On the women’s side, Donna McFarlaine of Australia ran 9:29.93 for the steeplechase!
