    There's been two impressive podium results for Kiwis at the Diamond League athletics finals in Oregon

    There's been two impressive podium results for Kiwis at the Diamond League athletics finals in Oregon


    Tori Peeters has had her best-ever Javelin result...finishing second to pocket twelve thousand US dollars.

    And George Beamish was third in the men's steeplechase.

    Hamish Kerr was 4th in the high jump and Sam Tanner may have finished 11th in the mile...but he smashed his personal best by two seconds and now has the second quickest mile by a New Zealander, second only to the great John Walker.

    Zoe Hobbs was 9th in a stellar 100 metre field.
