Are most of you guys one event wonders or do your coaches rope you into 3 other events like they do to me. I do long jump, triple jump, and the 4x8 (or whatever relay they need me for). I'm ok at running so I'm basically the backup guy for any running event other than hurdles.

Long and Triple and then the 4x2 or open2, depending on if there isnt any competition in the vault, if there is some1 who could give me a run for my money, i would run the 4x1 or open 1

I like to dabble in a little of everything. Pole vault, long jump, triple jump, 100 hurdles, 4x1 and shot. But I'd love, love, LOVE to try the hammer!

I'm a distance runner, really. But since i tore my acl in november, all i do this year is vault its SOOOO great!

I really love running and all but last year I did the open 800, Mile and 4by800 all the while vaulting in between and my legs would be so dead by my last couple of vaults i barely made it down the runway.

It's also lame because i have total distance muscles and i can't sprint for crap so i've always had an issue with runway speed
suck it up.

Aside from vaulting my coach puts me in the 400 hurdles, triple jump, 110 hurdles, plus 100, 200, and 400, depending on what he sees fit for the day.

along wit pole vault i do 100 hurdles..300 hurdles and either the medley relay or the 4x200. but next year i wanna tell my coaches that i dont want to do hurdles nemore..cuz i always blow finals..i think its the pressure cuz for jv i always got first in prelims and i didnt even go 100% and then i would always trip over a hurdle in finals. oh well..wut can u do..lol

In HS, I ran the 110/300 hurdles and anchored the 4x1

In college, I sometimes ran the 100 and the 110s. I ran on the 4x1 for a couple of years and LJ/TJ my final year a little bit.
