Reverberations from 18-year-old Mondo Duplantis’ electrifying 6.05m pole vault clearance on Sunday at the 2018 European Championships are still being felt, and among them is the peculiar question of whether the mark will be ratified as an American record.
The times were fast, the stars were young, and the meet might have been the best in all of 2018. Let’s recap the 2018 European Championships by handing out some much-deserved awards.

By David Monti, @d9monti(c) 2018 Race Results Weekly, all rights reserved BERLIN (12-Aug) -- On the final night of the 24th European Athletics Championships here at Olympic Stadium, three favorites prevailed in the final middle and long distance events on the schedule: Britain's Laura Muir in the 1500m, Netherlands's Sifan Hassan in the 5000m, and Germany's Gesa Krause in the 3000m steeplechase. Krause was a repeat champion from Amsterdam two years ago.
Future New Mexico Lobo Adva Cohen had a phenomenal run at the European Championships this weekend. Coming into the competition, Cohen's personal-best steeple mark was 9:48. In the prelims, she lowered that mark to 9:36, and in the final, she finished fifth overall to become the sixth collegian to break the 9:30 barrier running 9:29.74.

The future is bright for British sprinting, but the present looks pretty good too.
Jason and Kevin discuss Charlene Lipsey's future as a miler, a potential Ingebrigtsen vs. Borlee relay at the European Championships, Caster Semenya's sub-50-second 400m, Asbel Kiprop's tweets and the Olympic Trials remaining in Eugene.
The European Championships begin today, the latest of the "continental championships" that take place on the non-championship year. If you are an American track and field fan, you might be thinking that this meet isn't for you. I'm here to tell you that you are wrong.
