Hi again!
I didn't get to go to the European Championships this time :/ but instead I'm going to direct my energy towards the Finnish Championships. They will be held in Kajaani this year and I will be competing the 8th and 9th of August. Wish me luck! :)

18.07 update
Hi!
Yesterday I competed in Nykarleby/Nykaarlepyy (SFI mästerskap). The conditions were really good, but my jumps on 4.20 didn't work. I was hoping to at least jump 4.20m. Actually the first jump I made on the hight was ok, but the bar was then too far away, the second jump went even better... so then the bar was too close (because I had more speed). I changed pole before the third attempt. I am not so used to that pole so I felt slightly distracted. When I jumped up, the pole twisted slightly in my hand so I then cancelled the jump inbetween... 4.20 isn't too hard really... so I'll probably go over it next time.

July 2nd 2010
Hi!
Two days ago I competed in Espoo Eliittikisat. I jumped 4.20 and nearly cleared 4.30 so I am quite pleased! :D
Tomorrow I have a competition in Somero. The competition will be shown on Finnish TV. I would prefer to have a longer pause between competitions than two days though. These two competitions are very good so I don't want to miss out on any of them :)

Last week in Formia
Hi!
Today we had a sprint training which went quite well. I’ve had a lot of them lately in order to catch up with my running speed as much as possible.
Less than a week is left of our training camp. We’re now on our fourth week and will be flying home to Finland next Saturday.

Actively training in Formia
Hi!
I am now training actively in Formia. There are good facilities here and the weather has been perfect. Tomorrow I will be doing my third real jump-training after my knee operation from February. Hopefully it is in good shape tomorrow (sometimes it gets inflamed) so that I can run faster and use bigger poles.
