I think three or four of the guys on my team are gonna run at the Missouri Southern high school indoor meet and the Mizzou All-Comers… Anyone else going to these meets?

so wat are ur events? sounds like a 100 from ur lifts. wat about ur pb’s?

yeah, i run the 100 and 200… im perdy slow, last year (junior year) i ran 11.3 and 23.3, i got a lot stronger over the summer (full squat went from 225 to 325, bench 185 to 235, clean 185 to 215) and i worked a lot on plyos, so hopefully i will be much improved…
