Re: Hooker Returns to Millrose an Australian Hero

I was at the Millrose games tonight. His attempts were unbelievably close at a wr. I'm talking a little more patients at the top and he could have had it. It may have been because the bar was lower, but his attempt at the height before 6.01m , off the top of my head I cant remember but it was 19 som...

It was actually pretty funny, he triped over his own feet and did the greene strut across the line. Jenn had a monster jump 4.53, at least a foot over, but didn't bring it at 4.73. It was great seeing Yalena jump, but she takes forever between attempts. We were there until 1100 watching her. But of ...

They all showed up to the NYC Armory today while I was at practice. It was pretty cool to watch all the elite vaulters train. I'm pretty excited to go watch them jump tomorrow.

Would you suggest flying with the poles or shipping them to reno? Which is the better choice? I'm going united and I think i read that they will do it for 80. If I have to pay a bit more to ship them, but it would be a better choice, than I would rather do that.

Leg swings, knee to chest, bounds, skips, scorpian swings, etc is great for a dynamic warm. Grab some hurdles and do some walk overs. I wouldnt do it in meet, any thing that any...

If you pulled up on a plant, you may have torqued it by a poor step - along with being dehydrated, etc. Be aware of your hip mobility. My coach calls the hamstring a victim because it's the end result of something wrong somewhere else. Your hips lacking mobility could have aided in the hamstring pul...
