Challenging conditions may have been the order of the day in Oslo but not even they could stop the athletics records from falling at the sixth Diamond League stop of the season.
World record holder Armand Duplantis continued his reign of supremacy in the men’s pole vault by adding another Diamond League victory to his name. In true ‘Mondo’-fashion the Swede signed off his win with a new meeting record surpassing the one he set over a year ago.
But he wasn’t the only Tokyo 2020 gold medallist to re-write a small slice of history.
Home favourite Jakob Ingebrigtsen and flying Dutchwoman Femke Bol also claimed meeting records of their own. The Norwegian in the non-Olympic mile distance and Bol in the women’s 400m hurdles.
Devon Allen underlined why he will be 'one to watch' at July’s World Athletics Championships in Oregon. The American followed up his stunning run in New York with a Diamond League debut victory that looked almost as if he was in cruise-control.
The 110m hurdler has said this season will be his last in athletics before he commits to American Football and all signs point to him peaking at precisely the right time.
Canada’s Andre de Grasse continued to show signs of steady improvement with a 10.05 victory in the men’s 100m. But the Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist in the distance will likely be aware that more work is to be done with Great Britain’s Reece Prescod uncomfortably finishing just behind him in a time of 10.06.
The shock of the night went to Croatia's Sandra Perkovic who dismantled American Valarie Allman's so-far unbeaten run in 2022. Their rivalry looks to be ripening at the perfect time with Oregon now under a month away.

Now it's back to the track for the men's 400m hurdles.
21:33 - Duplantis calls it a day
Duplantis has decided not to go for a third and final attempt at 6.10m.
It seems the Swede is happy to settle for a meeting record at the Bislett Stadium.

21:16 - Meeting record secured for Duplantis
The Swede has re-written his own record at the Bislett Stadium!
He clears 6.02m in one attempt to surpass the 6.01m meeting record he set last year.
It's also a new world lead in the event.
Could there be more to come from the world record holder?
21:14 - Bekele victorious in 5000m
It's a second all-Ethiopian podium in Oslo!
Telihan Haile Bekele has come out on top of the men's 5000m in 13:03.51 ahead of Samuel Tefara and Getnet Wale.
Meanwhile in the men's long jump Tentoglou has extended his lead in the fourth round breaking the eight metre mark for the first time tonight.

Another national record has been set tonight in Oslo, this time in the women's 200m.
Denmark's Ida Karstoft takes the win in 22.76 ahead of Britain's Beth Dobbin who finishes in second with a season's best time of 23.01.

Hot on the Canadian's heels was Great Britain's Prescod (10.06) who continues to impress this season, while Simbine backs up his second-place finish in the African Championships with a third-place finish in Oslo.
20:40 - Men’s 100m up next
Olympic 200m champion Andre De Grasse is stepping down tonight for what is sure to be an interesting race.
As the Tokyo 2020 bronze medallist in the distance the Canadian arrives as the man to beat but 9.90 runner Benjamin Azamati is quickest on paper this year and could cause an upset.
Then there is Reece Prescod (9.93) and Akani Simbine (10.06) also in the mix.
20:39 - Dawit Seyaum victorious in women's 5000m
It's an all-Ethiopian podium in the women's 5000m in Oslo.

Compatriots Tsegay and Gidey finished in second and third respectively, while race-favourite McColgan does not finish.
20:31 - Duplantis last man standing in pole vault
It's just the Swede and the vault left in Oslo.
The rain, and the bar, have gotten the better of Lavillenie and Lillefosse who are now left watching to see how far Duplantis will go.
The height has now been set to 5.92m and the Olympic champion has failed on his first attempt.
20:23 - Men's long jump underway
As the flurry of track action continues to thrill the men’s long jump competition has also started.
Olympic champion Miltiádis Tentóglou will be trying to extend his win-streak here in Oslo but will encounter tough opposition in Simon Ehammer, Emilano Lasa and Thobias Montler, who have all jumped at least 8.27m this season.
Meanwhile in the men’s pole vault Duplantis continues to hold onto his clean sheet clearing 5.80m in one attempt. He has opted to skip 5.86m.
His competitors meanwhile taking on 5.86m appear to be struggling.
Guttormsen has just been eliminated after failing to clear the height while Lavillenie and Lillefosse have missed on their first two attempts.
20:20 - James comfortably wins 400m
A glorious last 50m sprint sees James take the win at the Bislett Games in a solid time of 44.78.
Isaac Makwala and Christopher Taylor round-off the podium in second and third.
Up next on the track is the women's 5000m.
World record-holder Letsenbet Gidey will be looking to make up for the narrow win she clocked in Eugene but faces threats from all sides.
Gouda Tsegay and Eilish McColgan will be hot on her heels.
20:10 - Bol storms to victory with meeting record
Bol blows away the field to take first in the women's 400m hurdles in a meeting record time of 52.61.
It's the sub-53 time she has been hunting for and is also a season's best.
Anna Ryzhykova comes in second in 54.81 ahead of Jessie Knight who ran 54.84.
Now it’s the turn of the men for the 400m.
Kirani James will be the man to stop here. The Grenadian was victorious last week in Rome.
20:03 - Women’s 400m hurdles lining up
Femke Bol leads the field in tonight’s first Diamond League track event and in her sights is a sub-53 time.
Can the Dutch hurdler do it tonight?
We're about to find out.
19:46 - Further departures in men's pole vault
And then there were four.
The height of 5.70m has proved tricky for some in the Bislett stadium.
Both Ben Broeders of Belgium and Braz have now been eliminated after failing to clear the height in three attempts.
Norwegian Pål Haugen Lillefosse ekes through on his third attempt to make it to 5.80m.
Duplantis, Lavillenie and recent NCAA outdoor pole vault champion Sondre Guttormsen all opted not to attempt the height.
19:29 - Duplantis clears opening height
An update from the men's pole vault.
Duplantis has cleared his opening height of 5.60m.
Lavillenie misses his first attempt at the same height but clears it on the second.
There appears to be jitters for the Brazilian Olympic champion who fails twice on his opening before eventually going clear.
That means there are now six vaulters remaining after Valentin Lavillenie crashed out after failing to clear 5.40m while Simen Guttormsen fell short of 5.60m.
18:44 - Duplantis in action as men's pole vault begins
The field action continues with the men’s pole vault which is just about to get underway.
Leading the pack tonight is Olympic champ and world record holder Duplantis.
The man from Sweden is currently unbeaten in the Diamond League season. He won in Doha with 6.02m, was victorious in Eugene with 5.91m, and then returned to six-metre form with a 6.01m triumph in Hengelo.
Having already improved on his own world record once this year, can Duplantis go further in Oslo?
Also going for glory are Rio 2016 champion Thiago Braz and London 2012 champion Renaud Lavillenie.
18:35 - Ealey wins shot put final in style
Team USA's Ealey has just signed off the shot put competition in the best way possible, with a new personal best throw of 20.13.
Her stunning final attempt was so good it all but muted her competition.
Second-place finisher Schilder fouled her final throw while Dongmo, though improving to 19.43, couldn't better her final standing. She settles for third.
Time for a short break before the men's pole vault begins at 18:45.
18:06 - Ealey now out in front
After a shaky start, the American has now successfully wrestled the lead from Schilder.
Ealey fouled her first throw before putting down 18.54 in the second round.
Now in her rhythm, her third round attempt of 19.66 has nudged her ahead of the Dutchwoman who has fallen into second.
Dongmo, who finished fourth in the women's shot put at Tokyo 2020 in 2021, is currently sitting in third with 19.15.
17:52 - National Record for Jessica Schilder
We're only on round one of the women's shot put event and the first record of the day has fallen.
Dutchwoman Jessica Schilder has laid down a big marker of intent with a 19.46 opening throw. She smashes the national record and sets a new personal best.
Her attempt also sees her take an early lead with Ealey and and Portugal's Auriol Dongmo still left to put their first markers down.
17:30 - Women's shot put up first
Good afternoon.
The first diamond league event of the day - the women’s shot put - is getting underway at the Bislett stadium.
United States' Chase Ealey will be one to watch here after her stunning outing in Hengelo where she threw a season's best 19.98.
The next event to follow will be the men’s pole vault featuring Olympic champion and world record holder Armand Duplantis. That begins at 18:45.
