		Joining me on this trip to Kuortane, to stay at one of their sport training centers, and to Pihtipudas, home of the Keihaskarnivaalit, were Delyle Woods, Mark Fletcher and Tom Pukstys- some of the US top throwers; and Catherine Betz and Brian Kollar, a pair of promising junior athletes.
		The rest of the day the two of us, along with Janus Lusis, wandered the field any watched, seeing some very talented young throwers and exciting competitions; the U 11 girls had the top 3 over 135' and the winner went from 8th to 1st on a last throw of over 140'.
		The village of Pihtipudas is also home of the Keihasmuseo, the Javelin Museum, which houses artifacts and equipment from the history of the javelin from Finland and around the world.

		Parviainen throws 88m as Finnish Edmonton selections take shape Chris Turner for the IAAF 2 July 2001 - This weekend saw a wealth of world class throwing in Finland at the famous ‘carnival’ throwing meetings that were originally pioneered by the javelin event in Pihtipudas which celebrated its 30th anniversary last year.
		World champion Aki Parviainen threw 88.67m to comfortably win the javelin in Pihtipudas on Sunday and he will be joined in Edmonton by former world junior record holder Harri Haatainen who was second with 82.87 metres.
		It is surely unthinkable that Olympic champion Arsi Harju who finished third with 20.35m would not travel to Edmonton but with a total of five Finns over the ‘A’ standard this summer the world championship’s qualification battle is going to be very tight.

		During their discussions they sadly stated that there are no javelin competitions during the weekend of the Relay-Nationals, so one of the persons (Erkki Kivivuori) said why don’t we arrange a javelin competition here in Pihtipudas that weekend!
		Everyone thought it was a good idea and the was also introduced to the Pihtipudas native Jorma Kinnunen who got excited about the idea and started talking about it to the other top throwers at that time.
