Can it be that there were only two decathlon competitions for women in
2006? Data from those in Columbia, Missouri and Udine, Italy are the
only ones that made the world lists of Ottavio Castellini and Mirko
Jalava. That seems very strange to me, since the event, only very
recently officially competed, would seem a natural target for
heptathletes interested in trying for new national records. Of the 2006
results, only that of Sara Tani, for Italy, would seem to qualify as a
national record. I'd appreciate any additions or corrections to the
annual and national records lists shown below. RR
