Kevin is on his way to breack the European record from Roman Sebrle. If he's breaking his second day record (like he broke yesterday he's first day rec), jumping 5.30 or more, the record is allmost certain in his pocket. Doing 6477 or more he become's the second heptathlete all time, but then he will have to run for it in the 1000m. I'll cross my fingers for you Kevin.
