Really an amazing list... #1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 31 and 4 DNFs of last years WC 13 out of last years top 20 plus Clay 13 out of 2008 top 20 Unfortunately the weather forecast worries me ... http://www.wetter.com/wetter_aktuell/wettervorhers... http://wetterstationen.meteomedia.de/messnetz/fore... But in all the years I've been there we've had only one year with really bad weather during the two days. |

I'd really like to do some predictions like Who will win? Who will be on the podium? How many 8000-pointers Who will win in the individual events? Will we see an WR or not? ... ? |

my predictions Who will win? - Clay Who will be on the podium? Clay, Hardee, Behrenbruch How many 8000-pointers 14 Who will win in the individual events? hardee-kasyanov-drozdov-krauchanka-diaz clay-behrenbruch-sintnicolaas-suarez-bouraada will we see an WR or not? I don't think so, weather forecast is not really helping... |

I see we agree on quite a couple of things - especially the individual event winners |

Strong suspicion, huh? I actually switched from Bouraada to El-Fassi in 1500m ... |

The latest... moesle.vol.at You also can see an interview with Konrad Lerch there. On Austrian television I heared that they have no insurance against the WR this year. As I mentioned, I don't think they needed it. If Bryan Clay really wants to break the WR, maybe this could be the road to WR: 10,38 - 7,85 - 15,85 - 2,06 - 48,10 13,75 - 53,00 - 5,00 - 70,00 - 4:43,00 At least on saturday the weather should be o.k. |

... Fast times in the 100 - I'm following Brent Newdick and it's great to see him run 10.86; he's never been under 11 before in a Decathlon so here's hoping he kicks on from this and gets to 8000pts - great runs from Clay Hardee as well. |

Back from Götzis! You may still see something for the first time: ( ) 27 athletes over 4000 points after 1st day (WR) (-) the day with the worst weather in all my visits (-) Five athletes with NM in pole vault |

crazy days at Götzis - perfect conditions on day 1 and day 2 was as bad as it can get... especially in the pole vault - i think it was even 6 jumpers with NM. I really hope for better weather next year I think considering the circumstances 8483 is actually a pretty good score for Clay. and at least 10 athletes with 8000 points (though rather low scores). |

I had to recount and indeed it was 6 jumpers without NM in PV - and of course Bertocchi injured during warm-up After the results of day 1 we could have seen almost 20 8000ers, considering that there are always some athletes have to pull out. About the predictions: Who will win? --> Jessica, Matt, Christoph Podium? --> nobody could expect so many favourites dropping out ... 8000pointers? --> o.k. I'm worst (a little bit too much rain ...), Matt is closest Individual events? Travis 0, Jessica 1, Matt 3, Christoph 4 (o.k. I was lucky in the 1500 - switched late and El-Fassi finished) |

Somebody have recorded the meeting by TW1? To my come back in Italy from the meeting I discovered that I not programmed correctly the Sat decoder. I have the dvd of the 2008 and 2009 meeting, (complete: I have cut only the advertising spots). I can exchange the 2010 with the 2008 and 2009, or I can pay something by Paypal or bank transfer. |

I would also be interested in recordings of this year's meeting or any other actually. @Ivan: would it be possible that you send me copies of your DVDs from the previous years? just contact me by email (jesbul158@web.de) to talk about the payment! |

I've recorded the two days on my pc (dvb-t) and need to check if all is o.k. (it ain't HD quality) - and I think I need to shape it since ony day is about 13 GB... Actually I have 2008 and 2009 on DVD too (recorded on a DVD/harddisk recorder, 5 DVDs each) but I'm not satisfied with the quality. |

I've check the recordigs now and they are o.k. Saturday 11-18:30 Sunday 10-18:30 They (mpg) are in 720x576 resolution and 11.9 GB (Sat) / 13.3 GB (Sun) in size. I think I need to compress them a little in order to get them on a DVD (or cut them and burn several DVDs) |
