Laiana McClinton (Junior) doubles up at the FHSAA Class 4A State Championships winning the 100 and 200 meter dash for the sprint double. Won the 100 meter dash in a blazing time of 11.75 into a -2.5 headwind and the 200 in 23.67 into a -1.3 headwind. Awesome job 👏👏👏

@BoersBurner Coming from someone who benefited off the system for decades.

@milesplit Are these numbers accounting for total number of youth track athletes or the population?

@djosh10 Unfortunately, that’s what many coaches tend to do.

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

A noticeable evolution is taking place in Florida’s youth track and field landscape. While states like Texas have long embraced specialized event coaching, Florida is steadily moving in the same direction.

More athletes and families are shifting away from the traditional track club model and seeking private coaches who provide event-specific instruction and individualized development. The focus is no longer just on being part of a team—it’s on maximizing an athlete’s potential through specialized training tailored to their unique strengths and goals.

As a result, it is becoming increasingly common for athletes to work with multiple coaches, each bringing expertise in a specific discipline such as sprints, hurdles, jumps, throws, or distance events. This individualized approach allows athletes to receive targeted technical instruction and a level of attention that can be difficult to achieve in larger group settings.

@Siemers_XC_TF @apsportsperform @AltamontXCTF @pntrack Stop the nonsense Shawn! Making that statement sounds as if you haven’t been around the sport. Which I know is false.

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@Lancer_Power It’s a rarity! A lot of distance runners can’t and aren’t even taught how to do the drills.

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

Prioritizing activities to those that benefit sprinters the most has everything to do with it. It’s called having a system and structure in place to develop the best sprinters.

I just saw a post that stated “if coaches believe distance running can benefit sprinters. Why dont they believe distance runners can benefit from sprinting to help with their kick?”

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@apsportsperform @pntrack BINGO 🎯

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@MikeCunningham I would answer the question as such! Are there other activities that sprinters can do that would directly benefit them?

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@umpref27 Personally, I would focus on other activities in the offseason that would directly benefit the sprinters. Such as Olympic lifting / strength development, sled pulls, technical skills, plyometrics, accelerations, max velocity sprints, blocks, etc. instead of running far and slow

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@spartanannie @MikeBasic2 @umpref27 How fast would she have been in high school had she lifted and focused on speed instead of XC?

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@umpref27 First question! What type of sprinter?

@Tier1athlete @TheGreat8Two3 Athletes know to warm up about 1:30 to 1 hour out before their event. Even our younger athletes 8 and under know that.

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@DelCurrent There’s a ton of rules and laws that we can ask ourselves why on a daily basis. But it doesn’t change the fact that they’re rules or laws.

@lammyslowdown @mar5hallhoops This isn’t even a picture from North Carolina. And looks to be a totally different sport; cross country 😩

[RAVE Speed Training @Rave_Speed]

@LifeOf_AKing @mar5hallhoops Be careful with what you see. People making AI pictures and all to try to prove their point.
