ATHLETE'S QUOTES FROM THE WORLD JUNIORS Track and Field Athlete Quotes: Matt Carter (High Jump) Santa Ana College: It was a new experience for me to compete against athletes from other countries. It was a mental thing for me today. My approach was not as good as it should have been. I was coming to the bar too slow, when it seemed like I was moving too fast. I definitely won’t miss next year!
Caitlin
Chock (5,000m) University of Richmond bound:
Melissa Faubus (Discus Throw) Cal-Berkeley bound: My technique was good, and I felt good, but my release is not what I wanted. I’m trying to get a PR and move up in the rankings. I’m excited about tomorrow. It’s been an awesome and enriching experience – with world championship competition and the tremendous atmosphere here. I’m happy to have made it into the Finals.
Keith Hinnant: (400m) University of South Carolina-bound: I came out quite nervous in the beginning, as this is my 1st international competition. My nerves went away at the start because I knew I just had to make the top 3 to qualify for the next round. I tried to maintain phases and work off the people in front of me so I could pace myself. I’d rather work off the other athletes than them work off of me. |

Jasmine Baldwin (100m SF) Mt. SAC College- bound: I really wasn’t thinking about much besides focusing on the finish line. My start does need work, but if I’m trailing I always seem to find myself coming back into the race. I don’t panic. When I panic, I get tight and don’t run as well. I’m not a quitter. I’m a finisher.
Ashley Owens (100m SF) UNLV-bound: I’m trying to break the record this week (WJR record is 10.88, set in 1977 by Marlies Oelsner-Gohr; AJR is 11.04, by Angela Williams in 1999) and I wanted to run faster in the semi finals than I did this morning. I was not as focused this morning as I am now. I slowed down after the first sixty meters to save energy when I should have ran all out. I tend to shut down when I’m in front.
Amber Harper (3,000 steeplechase) BYU: I was not in the race from the start. It is hard for me to get in the race when I don’t start out good. I am tired because it has been a long season, but I am definitely glad to be here. |
Natasha Hastings (400m)
University of South Carolina-bound:
I did not feel that I was going as fast as I was
which was a boost for my confidence heading into the
next round. My performance today lets me know that
I am shape and ready to break the 52 barrier. I
definitely did not plan to run 52.60 today.
Ashlee Kidd (400m) Georgia Tech University:
I felt good but ran conservative today to save my energy for the next round. My goal was to win my heat, which is what I did.
Ivory Williams (100m) Central High (Beaumont, Texas):
I got out well and then was able to cruise on in to the finish, and save energy for tomorrow. I will try to do better tomorrow.
David Torrance (1,500m) Cal-Berkeley:
I thought the race would be
faster than the way it ended up. I wanted to stay
in the front pack as long as I could. With 300m to
go, I decided to make my move.
Marcus
Mayes (800m) University of Missouri:
The race was really physical at first, which was
something I was not expecting. I really wanted to
set the pace through the 200 and 400 meters, but I
allowed the physical part of the race through my
rhythm off. It was a learning and growing
experience given the conditions, I think I did
well. I’m glad to be here.
Norris Frederick (HJ & LJ)
University of Washington bound:
My shoes ripped during my 1st attempt, so I had a
hard time to adjusting to my new shoes during the
high jump.
I felt pretty good in the long jump. I kept leaning backwards every time I landed in the pit. My approach off the board went well going down the runway.

5k Training program for the novice runner
Track Running by T'keyah Bell. Throughout those years of running track it began to feel good about knowing that it was what I wanted to do, not only that it was what I loved to do. Running track became more passionate to me then any other sport. Last year 2008 was unforgettable I accomplished more than I could have ever imagined.
