Natán Rivera
Natán Armando Rivera Alas (born 12 December 1998) is a Salvadoran athlete specialising in the pole vault. Still a youth athlete, he won the gold medal at the 2015 NACAC Championships although in rather unusual circumstances. His rivals having much better personal bests than Rivera, who managed to jump 4.70 meters, entered the competition much higher but none of them actually cleared the bar. This left him as the sole athlete to record a valid jump and the gold medalist. This victory earned him a spot at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing, where, however, the opening height of 5.25 metres, way above his then PB of 4.70 metres, proved too much for him. His current personal bests in the event are 5.35 meters outdoors (Austin, TX 2019) and 5.20 metres indoors (Houston, TX 2019). Both are national records National Records was a record label that was started in New York City by Albert Green in 1945 and lasted until early 1951.

The men's pole vault at the 2015 World Championships in Athletics was held at the Beijing National Stadium on 22 and 24 August. Competition World record holder and world leader Renaud Lavillenie set his opening height at 5.80, after most of the field had already attempted two heights. He cleared it with one foot to spare on his first attempt. It is believed to be the highest opening height ever attempted. At the end of that round, only six jumpers remained and three others, Shawnacy Barber, Piotr Lisek and 2011 winner Paweł Wojciechowski also had no misses. Returning champion Raphael Holzdeppe also was one of the six to clear 5.80, including several misses. At the next height, 5.90, Lavillenie cleared the bar easily, but in the wrong position. Each time he knocked it off on his way down. Barber, the National High School Record holder and NCAA Champion from the University of Akron, cleared on his first attempt. On his last attempt Holzdeppe cleared 5.90 to stay in the co ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
