Pedro's Cup

The Pedro's Cup is a biannual athletics event of two legs, which features an indoor track and field competition in January or February and an outdoor competition during the European summer period. The first competition of each year since 2005 has taken place in Bydgoszcz, Poland. The second competition of each year has taken place in another city, currently Poznan, Warsaw and Szczecin have hosted the summer/autumn Pedro's cup competition. The event typically draws top level competition, including at least fifteen Olympic medalists in 2008 and more in 2009.[1] The meet is unique because it draws best athletes of the world to compete in a rather cold climate.

At the 2008 event, Asafa Powell became the first sprinter to turn in a sub-10 second 100 metres time in Poland, and in 2009, he equalled the meet record of 9.82 seconds. The 2010 indoor event featured only three events (pole vault, shot put and high jump) but Anna Rogowska provided a record-breaking performance by vaulting 4.81 m and beating the previous Polish best mark.[2]
