Before and after. Unreal by @rhasidatadeleke. What a brilliant attitude she showed to get after it and try get a medal. Savage running!!

@SeamusCarey Was thinking the exact same thing. Sometimes we miss a great battle going on behind for other positions.

@DervalORourke Looks like Amusan was wearing long distance spikes!

[Cathal Dennehy @Cathal_Dennehy]

Asked Tobi Amusan about what's behind her improvement this year and why she was chose to wear a long-distance spike tonight.

Here's what the new world record holder had to say.

@spikesonly @mboyle1959 @Physical_Prep @bmarcello13 @EatSleepTrain_ I’d be thinking a soft crash pad as opposed to a concrete wall. But maybe the idea has too many drawbacks and might not actually be practical. It’s just something that came to mind when Michael mentioned the space issue.

[Ken Ryan @kcaseyryan]

@mboyle1959 @spikesonly @Physical_Prep @bmarcello13 @EatSleepTrain_ Ha! Yeah that could be an issue alright. Food for thought though!

[Ken Ryan @kcaseyryan]

@mboyle1959 @spikesonly @Physical_Prep @bmarcello13 @EatSleepTrain_ I haven’t tried it myself as we’re usually out on a track but if you go to 1:28 in this clip you’ll see what I mean. It might be a way of bringing the fly zone closer to the athlete. https://t.co/TYAfjMvtdK

[Ken Ryan @kcaseyryan]

@mboyle1959 @spikesonly @Physical_Prep @bmarcello13 @EatSleepTrain_ Have you ever considered an assisted start whereby the athlete can get to a higher speed quicker? Could be useful when stuck for space. Granted the acceleration component is taken away, but fly’s tend to be a Max V exercise anyway so it might work.

Re-reading Charlie Francis this week...reinforcing our approach on speed development especially in young athletes to positively impact the type- II muscle fibers is critical!

Run fast, lift heavy, rest often⚡️

No Tennis Players don't sprint 30 plus meters during tennis- they do short bursts. BUT, the benefit of training the sprint will build great feet and ankle stiffness to be quicker, build great core stability to move more efficient, and be the best plyo work they can do. Sprint!

@gerhensey @SetantaCollege Congrats Ger!!
