Here is a video recording of me competing for Wales in the Under 20 men’s 60m at the Jeff White Motors Indoor International on the 22nd January 2005 :). Please share your opinions about the race ;).
I couldn’t see too much wrong, looked pretty good. Shame the electronic clock didn’t catch your time. Still won the race fairly comfortably. Good job well done!
In retrospect I did win the race because Seriashe Childs who came 1st isn’t under 20’s :p. So I came second “in the red Welsh kit” my coach is going to work with me on my pick up for the British Under 20 Indoor Championships he reckons if I can get that sorted I should run 6.8seconds but the hand time was 7.1seconds. I’m competing this weekend at Birmingham so I’ll hopefull have footage of that race and the electronic timing to go with it ;).
They gave him 7seconds hand timed but I and many others including official time keepers reckon he ran under 7seconds wouldn’t be surprised he ran 7.03seconds in the Welsh Indoor Championships two weeks ago still I’ll get him next time I’m still a nipper compared to him but it was great competing against someone with so much experience and who’s achieved some much for a junior :p. So yeah not moving away from that he seems to be running really well but I still kicked his butt to 40m :rolleyes: LOL!
Really? Looked quicker than that, looked like a low 6.9 to me! You were superb to 40, just sank a bit when Sez came up on your shoulder. Things are moving in the right direction though. Random question, but who’s your coach, not Pete Lane by any chance is it?
Start position looked pretty good but the rest is really hard to judge your with that quality of film (wmv).
Good luck the rest of the season. keep us posted on your progress.
