Cook Islands track and field athlete Harmon Harmon was put out of the 2009 Pacific Mini Games after a nasty hamstring injury on the track yesterday.
Harmon sustained the injury during his second attempt at long jump – the second discipline of his octathlon.
Harmon’s father and coach Grover Harmon says that the young athlete is definitely disappointed that he’s had to pull out of the games.
He managed to complete his first octathlon event, the 100m sprint, before his injury.
Harmon was meant to compete after the 100m sprint and long jump disciplines in the shot put, 400m, 110m hurdles, high jump, javelin and the 10,000m long distance run. - Matariki Wilson: Cook Islands News
