It’s been a hectic Summer to date for Finn Valley athlete Tori Pena so imagine her relief and delight at finally clearing 4.40m at the Nationales Stabhochsprung- Meeting in Switzerland on Monday.
And it comes with a prize – the height is the Daegu world championship B standard mark which Tori has chased throughout the last month.
The story of her competition translates as follows clear first attempt 4.20 and using a longer pole went clear 3rd attempt 4.40m.
She now comes directly to Ireland to defend her national title this weekend.
And the whole of Donegal will be right behind her.
