My quest for 6.7

In terms of my 60m performances go, my acceleration.

I’ve typically had a slow 0-30m in my races. At my regional champs last year I was about head to head with 7.1-7.2s guys at 30m, than at the end pulled away for a 7.00s performance.

At our conference champs, running next to a guy who ran 6.8 flat, he killed me in the first 30m, and then I made some slight ground, and again ran 7 flat.

I’ve always said that I had the speed of a 6.7 runner but the acceleration of a 7.2 runner and so I’ve previously ran 7.0-6.9s.

I’ve made some solid gains in strength and power since then and I’ve been hammering out some quality accels. I’m hoping to lower both my accel and top speed times this year but more so accels. So far I think that I’ve really improved this aspect.
