For our SATV+RBR Battle of the Month for May we offer the Battle of the Triple Jump. Teddy Tamgho, Pedro Pichardo and Christian Taylor. 

Pedro Pichardo followed up his brilliant jumping in Cuba with his 18.06 meters, the best jump since 1996 and Kenny Harrison’s 18.09 meters! 

Teddy Tamgho gets injured, sadly in the competition, requiring surgery. 

And in round six, Christian Taylor leaps 18.04 meters!

NEVER, EVER have two men leaped over 18 meters in a event that Sebastian Coe once told Sports Illustrated was the cruelest of events on
an athlete’s body. 

For this epic competition, we at RunBlogRun give the Doha DL Triple Jump our May 2015 Epic Battle of the Month!
