Sainsbury's Glasgow Grand Prix, Day Two, 12 July 2014, results from IAAF

Ashton Eaton, taking flight, 400m hurdles, 11 July 2014, photo by PhotoRun.net

Both days of the Glasgow GP were fantastic. I was so happy for Ashton Eaton scoring a fine pb of 48.69 in the 400m hurdles and taking second. His joy at his break through was honest and so real. One of my favorite things about this sport!

Some fine racing on day two. Emma Coburn’s AR in the steeplechase, of 9:11.42 was so hard fought, it teared me up again. Leo Manzano continues to come around well this season! Ajee’ Wilson racing so well, so poised, was great to see!

Who will be the surprises in the Commonwealth Games? Who will surprise in the European Champs. Well, the Netherlands has Sifan Hassan and Dafne Schippers!

And then, the smile on David Rudisha’s face, knowing that he had raced well, and that his body was following his spirit!
