Hey davan, how are you going to cut like .4 in the 60 in one season? Are you going to train with Woronin? :wink:

8

lol no Woronin’s training is a little too advanced for me at this point, probably ever, ya heard.

I may not get my goal, but if I at least set it high, I won’t sell myself short. You never know. I cut off .7 off my 100m pb last season (fat pbs) and probably even more if the conditions were better for the pb.

-sub 10.8
-sub 22
-Start seriously training for the long jump
-Try to complete the season without a serious injury!

13

my short medium and long goal is to not get injured. The rest will fall in place then

14

may I recomend that you think of your goal as “staying healthy” ? The main thing is that your goals and self images should be positive, not saying not to do something. Hopefully you understand what I’m saying.

15

your right i read a few years back that the human brain does not process negatives very well. so instead of saying i wont mess up you tell yourself i will do well. the latter being the more effective for self motivation.

16

that like in relays, tell your oppositon, ‘dont drop the batton’. in the heat of the pressure of the moment, they remeber ‘drop the batton’
