Long Jumper: Marestella Torres - Philippines

Marestella winning the 2009 Asian games.
Marestella Torres is a great Long Jumper from the Philippines.  Here personal best is 6.71 meters.
.
6.71 meters is 22 feet.  That is a long jump!

Marestella -out of her outfit.
 Unlike my high school gym class (where we did the "standing long jump" soyou can't hurt yourself) Marestella does the running Long Jump.  She is only women on the Philippine National Team for Track and Field.
