I think he might have been sick for the last week or two. Of course maybe he just wanted to show off how good he is. :P

I think Brad may be more effectice from that run. When he runs from 18, he starts exactly the same as he does at 12, so he is running full speed almost the entire run. At TX relays, he was doing that. Blowing his wad the first 10 steps of the run, and hanging on the last 8. It will be scary when he works his approach out all the way.

yea...from the few times i've seen him jump his long run, he has gotten long and slow in his last couple of steps. he hits top speed 2 lefts before plant, and slows down from there. but still, he jumped 19' doing that so obviously he's doing a lot of other things right.
