Holly Bleasdale has broke her own British pole vaulting record during an indoor competition held in France on Saturday.

Holly Bleasdale eclipsed her own British pole vault record during an indoor meeting in France on Saturday.

Bleasdale cleared a height of 4.71m to beat her previous record - set in July at a meeting in Germany - by just one centimetre.

"I knew I had capabilities of getting 4.61 but getting 4.71 in competition was such a surprise," said the 20-year-old afterwards.

Despite failing to register a height during the World Championships this year, Bleasdale looked impressive during the smaller competition.

She explained: "Training has been going amazing and I was really confident and just wanted to have fun seeing as it was just a small competition off a short approach (12 strides) and I did not taper for it."

Bleasdale will now be looking to carry on her good form in 2012 in the lead-up to the London Olympics.
