A Zoom calendar invitation pops up on Nina Kennedy’s phone every fortnight: “Project Five Metres”.

Every two weeks, the Australian pole vaulter meets with her team and tracks the next move in their strategy to break five metres.

For the woman who has won Olympic, world championship and Commonwealth gold, broken her back and come back again, it is the next elusive goal.

It’s day seven of the Commonwealth Games and the swimming program is done. The rest of the action is far from over, and we have a big day ahead – Torrie Lewis and Lachie Kennedy among the Australians in the 200-metre semi-finals at the track, our netballers in action in their final group game, weightlifting, and the first day of action at the velodrome.

Let’s get into it.
