I'll bet you're curious...
Why am I displaying the warm up track (also known as Stadio dei Marmi, or Stadium of the Marbles) from Rome's Olympic Stadium in the picture above?
Because the 2020 Rome Golden Gala has been rescheduled for 17 September, on that venue! Thus it's great to see Track & Field starting again, but not as we know it. I'm just happy to see some progress being made to get back to business.
Upcoming highlights of the week:
- Athletics Northern Ireland: Wednesday 10th June @ 8pm UK time. Dan Pfaff will lead coaches through a webinar focused on analysing the mechanics of acceleration and maximum velocity sprinting. Dan will use video demonstrations and kinograms to discuss critical shapes and landmark positions and will explain factors
that drive individual athlete differences and how these influence the individualisation of training. Register here.
- USATF Level 2 School, July 28 - August 02, 2020. 100% On-line, which makes it easier.
- If you're interested in developing your acceleration and top speed abilities, download a comprehensive overview of the ALTIS technical model for sprinting at no cost.
