brad seems to run through a lot, especially in warm ups. (sounds familiar
). it killed him at ncaa's though. what happened in that they screwed everyone?-

I think it was their first time running a pole vault competition and it took them 5minutes to put a practice bar up..their was only one guy who wanted practice bars and he had already done a bunch of run throughs at the practice track. I believe he got about 5 bars as well. Each of us only got 3 runthroughs and myself and Jimmie along with 2 other guys took off on one of them. Then we were all waiting while they were trying to put a bar up for this guy again and they closed the runway.

Run Throughs
Brad has battled a hamstring strain all year. He was bouncing around from 6 to 8 strides trying to find something that felt comfortable to him. He'll have his old coach back next year, so you probably won't see him running through anymore.
