Hartwig counts down to 40 with 18-9 jump at Kansas
M40 runner Rodney Zook won the Kansas Relays masters 800 today in a respectable 2:07.98 — but in the absence of Steve Gallegos, the 2005 indoor world champion for M50. But M40-minus-six-months vaulter Jeff Hartwig showed up big time — showing up Sydney Olympic champion Nick Hysong in the invitational pole vault with a big 5.72 clearance — 18 feet, 9 1/4 inches. Jeff missed three times at 5.82 (19-1). Fellow 39-year-old Pat Manson, a Kansas grad, cleared 5.22 (17-1 1/2).
