Imogen Ayris has won bronze in the women's pole vault in Birmingham - New Zealand's first athletics medal.

The 21-year-old from Auckland produced a highest vault of 4.45m to finish third. Her team mate and training partner Olivia McTaggart just missed out, placing fourth.

Imogen told Susie Ferguson she has dreamed about this moment for years.
