Nice. Finally a video that strikes the balance. No vapid trivializing crude sexualization. Nor any of the impression of trying too hard that comes off as corny and makes me embarassed for T&F. This was cool and capable of making track athletes and outsiders alike "understand"
Agreed. Much better than the Aussie hurdler's video.

Google is your friend.
Seriously, it would take you 30 seconds to find out what you are asking.
Google is not so friendly with this search as there are 25-50 links about how hot she is before there's much info on whether or not she's any good.

Event Result Venue Date
Pole Vault 4.36 Livermore (USA) 16.06.2012
Pole Vault ind. 4.26 Seattle (USA) 05.03.2011
Good, but not good enough for US top 3. And that PR was from almost years ago. She'll make more from her looks and degree than pole vaulting. Nothing wrong with that. Few people can make as much from T&F as from other means.

Wasn't she legal in the original pic?
No. She was 16 (almost 17) in the original photo. It went viral a bit more than a year after it was taken. It made all you pervs feel better to know she was 18 by the time the photo went viral, but she was 16 in the photo.
She hasn't qualified for USAs in awhile, but she isn't that far off. She looked good at the Pole Vault Summit (and I mean her vaulting). If she is taking it seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if she had a good season this year and qualified for Outdoors. She seems unlikely to ever be a contender to make a team though.
She came up to Seattle last summer and jumped in my beach vaults. She is very very nice and doesn't have an ego or anything like that.
