Anyone have ideas on reducing the reaction time off the blocks? Only one of my events at Nationals posted a reaction time, and it looks like I went ahead and finished a cup of coffee before I left. Was I just thinking too much? Or do I need a cattle prod?

  • Looks like you got away with one, Bill. Yeah, I did -- although it may not have helped as much as it appears because I was so freaked out about how close it was that I did a really lousy dive and pullout. I almost stopped to see if we'd been deked. But it did result in my best 50 *** split ever, so I'll take it. I sure wish we could have practiced with pads and sensors. That's pretty cool.
