Jeff Hartwig (silver medalist) at the 2008 USA Track & Field Olympic Trials in Eugene, OR clearing 5.70 (18'-8 1/4") on his third attempt to clinch his position on the 2008 Olympic Team. This was his second Olympic Team qualification. His first was 12 years before in 1996 for the Atlanta Olympics.

Although it was sunny and warm, the winds were very unpredictable on the track. Tailwinds didn't last long before they turned into sharp cross winds.

In the end though, it was a beautiful day! Congrats, Stew!!!
