3-19-2012 Pole Vault Practice(RTB)

Today I broke a pole. It was actually a pretty weird break. Well one that I never have witnessed or heard of; The pole broke when it started to uncoil. After it broke the bottom half flipped up hitting me in my left shoulder blade. It stung and was tight, but I was able to vault and finish with a great practice.

3-18-2012 Oregon Preview(RTB)

Well I didn't make a bar, but I made improvements. Some things that I noticed after watching the video was that my run was taller, my plant mechanics were more forward and up, shoulders stayed more square to the box, and I did a better job of keeping my hips rising through my swing. Its still not where I would like it, but I am Improving. I also have some bigger poles i will be able to jump on in practice now, so that will help for future meets.
