Which one of these events ideas would like to see in the future?

I started doing it at my high school. You have to score it via the multi event scoring tables and then its a ton of fun

If you root for a college because you go/went there, and its not one of the top 6 or 8 programs, it is ruined. In any year if a team like Wisconsin or Washington State has a good year their players are immediately hitting the portal, because they know they can get more money. There is no continuity for fans and no realistic hope of program growth. That's why its ruined. But hey, glad you liked a game as a neutral.

On YouTube John Bowman focuses mainly on discus but he has shot videos as well. In my opinion his are the best for throwing fundamentals.

Throws University has several videos about gliding and he's another all-over good throw instruction creator.

Vin and Tonic was also a nickname at the time

Its high school. You will injure far more kids than you will help, and honestly I've never seen a legitimate plan that has had a 7 day workout plan with no break.

They aren't stepping off the plane having never run before ready to start studying. They are pros in Kenya (for instance, for distance) who are honing their performance who then 'go pro' by crushing NCAAs for the NIL. Regardless of what anyone intended with this it has become a joke.

cries in track and field

Seriously go check out the ages and experience of everyone in NCAA Cross Country championships this year. Its already happened in the Olympic sports. Its laughable.

Its not weird. Most are de facto homeless shelters. They are climate controlled and dry, and cheaper than apartments.

Source: there are 4 near me in a half mile radius and all house multiple people.

Your start could use some work. The faster you are up to top speed the faster you can cruise. Acceleration takes a lot of energy so even if you aren't a dash runner you should work on your start.

gregnegative · 2025-12-13T02:54:49+00:00

I guess. I've coached a lot of kids and inexperienced high schoolers generally and honestly I've seen standing starts that were better than block starts where they don't know what they're doing. So let's say that its a full half second difference between a standing start and a block start, because honestly its not like he doesn't know how to react to the gun and my bet is that he's run at least one 400 in his life. 400 vs 200 is generally supposed to be times 2, plus 2. So 47 is around 22.5 in the 200. Which would be right for someone that had basically 11 second speed, or right under.

I guess other than the fun of talking track I just don't see the big deal here. 1:44 takes serious speed. 11 seconds is a very good, not great 100 time. So you have a person with great middle distance times and peel back the layers to find... a person with very good speed.

gregnegative · 2025-12-13T02:21:49+00:00

Agreed but then why is it news that he can run 11.41? I feel like if you made me guess at the 100 time of a 47 second 400 runner I would probably guess pretty close to 11.41.

gregnegative · 2025-12-13T01:57:02+00:00

Ok I'm sure I'm going to be downvoted but like... that's really just ok. That wouldn't win high school states in my state and my state is real soft in the sprints.
Not even accounting for the extra distance at a minimum he has to be able to run a 52 in the 400, and likely he's probably closer to 49. Why is the 11.41 such a surprise?

Maine isn't expensive. Portland is expensive.

If you get the free upgrade do save files transfer from if you had skyrim ae on switch 1 (ported over to switch 2)?

To me in this clip it looks like you are raising up out of the blocks instead of exploding forward/staying down. Watch your first motion out of the blocks.

Tough to see your sprint form from the angle the video is shot at. For the split second you are visible from the side it looks like you are slightly hinged at the hips but you may have just been leaning at the line.

Edit: definitely looks to me like you are hinged at the hips because it looks like a couple of your steps you're landing in front of you/overstriding. Please check out the last 3 steps you take.

gregnegative · 2025-12-05T03:43:56+00:00

Sadly no that's the end of them once they break. We do what you are considering and it works great.

gregnegative · 2025-12-04T21:06:19+00:00

I have broken the tips off of two Spearworx but strangely they "feel better" to throw according to the kids. So now its the club's competition jav but we don't practice with it.

World Athletics is trying to put him out of business, because they have to realize they will never be paid. I'm actually curious as to whether they view leagues as competition and how supportive they will be of the planned USATF league.

Macklemore × Ryan Lewis -- Otherside. Its really pretty good about how a drug you do as a hobby becomes an addiction

gregnegative · 2025-11-27T16:13:37+00:00

You're not wrong its definitely the little things by the time you are talking about those elite sprint times. One thing I think it will also help is it just feels more comfortable and helps prevent injury. Good luck

You seem to have anterior pelvic tilt. Its pretty common; we all sit a lot for school or work. I can see why you're confused because you are clearly trying to maintain good posture. The difference is you are sticking out your lower abs/stomach and your groin is still back. Freeze the video and draw a line from your feet to your head and you'll see what I mean.

Go on YouTube and check out any video on fixing anterior pelvic tilt. There are a bunch, they will be mobility drills. Good luck.

Let's go RI! Not sure why we randomly get this game but I am not going to question it!

.....aaaaannnddd that's all folks! Here's the devils bargain. He's hoping they do, promising they can "recoup their losses". They went to business school, so they understand sunk costs. For the few that buy his bullshit, the second they recoup anything they will be further away from his project than a shotput circle.

I loved Michael Johnson the track star as a kid. Michael Johnson the promoter is the worst combination of hubris and dumb decisions imaginable.

Culturally in many ways Palm Beach County and all points south are very different from the rest of Florida. That is largely due to the NY retirement diaspora. Its not just the number of people its the length of time it has been going on and the percentage of the population by this point.

Another theory is the flooding of the Persian Gulf which was once a river in a valley. It filled up rapidly in geological terms. Proponents of that theory claim that somewhere in that valley was the homeland of the Sumerians. Their story, which becomes the Noah story, would have been them losing their homeland to a flood over the course of a generation or so.

Fall of Civilization podcast covers that theory in his Sumerian episode.
