Current Standings Overview

With only 2 events left things are starting to tighten up in several places...

Palmiero's excellent effort in the Pole Vault has catapulted him from 5th to 2nd. Currently, it looks like a 4 way fight between Babson, Palmiero, Nielsen, and Peltonen for the top 3 spots. It will be interesting to see how this plays out knowing that Babson and Palmiero aren't as strong in the last two events as Peltonen and Nielsen are.

Like the top 4, we have a tight bunching of athletes from 5th to 10th. Looking at the remaining events, injuries, stamina, etc., I expect that Ketola will continue to slide down the leaderboard. In fact, with his injury, he may find himself at the bottom of that second group before all is said and done. On the other hand Path looks to be sitting pretty in his group, poised for a strong finish. Will it be strong enough to challenge for 3rd, I'm not sure.

Two competitors, Llyw and Bafou, at the bottom of the standings have a couple of strong events coming up, so they could climb a bit...assuming the injury doesn't hinder Bafou too badly.
