Line on Track

While looking at the meet from today The
Home Depot Track & Field Invitational I was doing a slo- mo analysis on the women’s 100m…

I notice a solid white line on the track 15-20m out from the finish.

Do you guys know is this the 80m or is this the steeple line that curved?

Thanks in advance.

I know White hit that line at 8.90.

What do you guys think?

White took 50.5 steps over 100m (10.79) and her max stride length was 2.22 (estimated) meters according to those white markings at 80m.

Her GCT look to be very quick w/ each stride.

I think she’ll go 10.86 by late July.

Does anyone know White’s strength levels in the gym for cleans, squats & deadlifts or even bench press?

She looks pretty strong during her 10.79 today over 100 meters.

What are some of Remi’s training systems as far as mechanics?

Any thoughts?

Say Charlie do you guys have ESPN2 in your neck of the woods?

If so what do you think about White’s mechanics?

I know she’s technically sound from 60 m to finish.

From what I see she’s inconsistent w/ her acceleration up to 20m. After that it’s OVER :smiley:

Kenny,

Dont you think that she was probably 10.85 range today with a legal wind. If i remember correctly the wind was only 2.3. I think that she is already there. She could be looking at 10.80 by worlds.

I agree, one must understand that track was super fast.

Her time would have been 10.94 w/ legal wind today.

That’s very impressive by any standards.
