Casey should be very proud of jumping his age. Only a handful of people do it worldwide each year. :yes: Your training inspiration needs to be to continue it each year as long as you can.

Of the current elite US vaulters very few have ever jumped their age. I would be happy to jump a 1/3 of my age. :D
