5.40pm – Samsung Diamond League in Oslo underway

4.07 hours until Usain Bolt, the fastest man in the world, will appear. A great evening of World Class Track and Field competitions is about to begin. The stadium is still more or less empty, but the Press Room is already filled. More than 100 photographers and journalists have been accredited, more than 200 people from different television stations are on site.

The competitions got underway with victory for Sweden’s Victoria Tegenfeldt in the Women’s 1500m (4:16.99). The first attempt of Estonia’s Gerd Kanter in the SDL Discus Throw competition was 65.14m long and good enough for the lead. Virgilijus Alekna (LIT) failed in his first attempt.
