Is his PR 10.17 or 10.35 whatever it is great improvements.
We are a little behind right now due to an annoying popliteus injury a few weeks ago. He just woke up sore one morning and we lost 3 weeks of training essentially, which in an 11 week buildup, is not good.
He is back running flat out now but still has some slight discomfort. Trying some time trials this weekend, but in 8-10 degrees I’m not expecting much.
Head to Europe on June 13th.

He ran a 10.49 in the B race in Lille too I think, although he did have a 0.2 reaction I think!
World Students next I do believe?

yeah 10.45s (-0.4) in round 2, 2nd in his heat, reaction 0.158 so getting better than the slow stuff of 0.2 reaction in Lille. He qualified about 7th for the semis. Hammy slightly sore so we’ll see how he pulls up tomorrow. 11 weeks since Nats hasn’t given us enough time to make any decent gains
10.42 (+0.2) and 3rd in his semi then 10.44 (-0.7) in the final for 7th.
Ambler off to FSU in January. Will be interesting to see how he goes.
