The 7.19 am post of the stadium in Auckland; I'm guessing 50.5 would normally be vaulting around this stadium?

I think you can get back to the earlier pages of the posts via the bottom of the feed. I tried but failed to cut & paste.

Here is the wording and hopefully the picture link works;

NZ stadium falls quiet
An empty race track, a swimming pool with not even a ripple and a hauntingly quiet gym devoid of athletes.

These pictures out of a sports centre in the New Zealand city of Auckland show the effect of the virus on everyday life.

The country is currently in a state of lockdown - mass gatherings have been banned and its borders closed to all foreigners.

There are currently 868 confirmed virus cases in New Zealand.

Ah yes that is the Millennium HP Sports Centre where 50.5W trains (lives). World class PV facility as it has an indoor set up then on that track there is PV run up in front of that building (back straight) then at the far end is a second one in the D. This means that they can vault outside on any day in any wind conditions but always have a tail wind.

Glad we got there in the end. Looks like she could safely maintain the isolation requirements and train there at the moment. I was telling my daughter about 50.5, to say she was impressed is an understatement!

That’s nice thanks.
We’ve just improvised a 10kg weight out of 2 paving stones for her training. Will get a pic if she lets me.

Take care with that (the paving stones, not the pic). Now wouldn't be a good time to get a cut and infection from a dirty object.

Very cool. Pole vaulting still scares the piss out of me.
