    Pole vaulter Eliza McCartney's rediscovered the joys of athlete comradery


    The Olympic bronze medalist is currently at an Athletics New Zealand field-event camp in Hawke's Bay.

    McCartney's been able to ramp-up her training as she recovers from hamstring and achilles injuries, completing her first full jump in 10 months.

    She says Covid-19 brought an end to competition and the socialising that comes with it.
