Block Starts over Hurdles & Quickstep Drilling with Brandon Johnson

Today I had a great session with high school senior Brandon Johnson, who continues to get back up to speed after a severe ankle sprain about six weeks ago. Today we worked on his block start over 1, then 2, then 3, then 5 hurdles. The speed and technique looked sharp, but he seemed to fatigue over the last two hurdles in the rep over five, so we switched to some quickstep drilling, and did four reps over eight hurdles to build back some of his hurdle endurance. With his state meet moved back to the end of June, we feel like we have enough time to get back right before then.
