7.46 - breakthrough NR for Pechyonkin!

Finally, Yevgeniy Pechyonkin managed to break the 60 m hurdles Russian
National record that he has shared with Aleksandr Markin since 1995.
Competing at the "Russian Winter" Games, Yevgeniy shaved an impressive 0,06
sec off his previous NR, finishing in 7,46 sec despite an earlier false
start. This is the fastest time of the 2002 Indoor season, and it also
ranks Yevgeniy as the all-time 16th fastest runner at the distance. More
was expected of the European Indoor champion Stanislav Olijars, who ended up
finishing 0,22 sec behind Pechyonkin
