Ran a 100, 200 and 4x100m today.
The 4x100 was first event and i ran it well.
Anyway in the 200m… ran a nice bend with little effort and looked very good till about 140m and then with about 40m to go, my legs seriously tightened up and i died out hard and someone from my team who i was half a meter ahead of passed me by 3 meters. I ended up with a big PB, so did he, regardless i feel somethings really wrong because this is the 3rd meet where im slowing down a lot.
I’ve been doing a decent amount of speed endurance work btw.
The 100m race was my 3rd 100m and 4th including relays. The 200m was my first but 3rd including relays. Also ran 2 400s before.
Give yourself a few more races to let the specificity of race SE kick in. Sounds like you are well on your way. Just stick with it and you may surprise yourself shortly
