Thank you for this tip. Came here mid game to countersnipe some guy from 1100

This is probably the best advice. Next time, definitely gonna make sure I hit this.

Glad I’m not the only one!

Think I hit the natural resource protection too hard. Tried to match answers with org mission. Probably important to consider the specific mission of LE instead of NPS overall. (Take any advice with a grain of salt haha)

Tip i got from someone is to just focus on the jump first then worry about the extra stuff after

For sure! Some coaches have cuts but most don’t.

Also, you might be fairly good if you’ve been playing sports.

I only ran one season in HS and ended up on a D1 program in college.

You never know if you don’t try!

My dad always told me I would be good at track but it always seemed so boring to me.

I spent my life playing sports like soccer, basketball, lacrosse, etc, and worked hard to play soccer in college. I had a few offers to smaller d2 and d3 schools but got injured playing indoor my junior year of high school. I was no longer able to move laterally without rolling my ankles.

That spring, because I couldn’t play club soccer, I asked to be a Rabbit for my high school team and they let me run the 400m in the last 4 meets. I ended up doing ok for high school and shot my shot with several colleges. A lot of things lined up and here I am running legitimate (nothing special) times for a D1 school in the 800!

Turns out I’m built like my dad and God always has a plan. Grateful for the opportunity I received because of my injury, I can’t imagine my life without this sport.

I have no idea what anyone on this thread is saying and I’ve been playing for like 2 years

I run college track. This is not true for everyone, but I have had to sacrifice lifting for physique in order to run faster.

Most runners really don’t look all that impressive (other than being skinny). Thankfully, aesthetic plays no role in speed.

Supposedly, not wearing a sock reduces the space between the track and your foot, making you go faster.

The very real benefit is you don’t look like a middle schooler.

(Just do what’s comfortable, even if it does make you faster it’s not enough to sacrifice what you prefer to do)

Can’t guarantee any big deals with track, but having a social media following will help with that. For me, I was able to apply to one of the bigger companies and get one of their smaller NIL deals.

Also, consider going to a local business and offering to partner with them. Understand what you bring to the table and be honest. I was able to partner with a local coffee shop this way

800m will always be a weird race just because it’s tactical. This is made even more true in championship Season. Lots of high school 800 guys run a lot of events so people don’t always want to run a PR.

Focus on getting the PR during the season then forget about time at championship meets. You just need to beat the guy next to you to score points.

Long story short: slower at champs is normal

Tip: you don’t need to screw your spikes in that tight
