There have been some amazing performances this past weekend. Katelyn Touhy ran a 9:47 for the 3200 meters, en route hitting the 1600m in 4:45. She came back the next day, and won the 1600m in 4:45. Sydney McLaughlin, in only her third 400 meter hurdles for the year, broke the WJR once again with her 52.75 for a 400 meters with ten intermediate hurdles. Yep, the 400 meter hurdles is the most sadistic race on the track. But what do we learn from these two athletes? Athletes at all levels do better with planning.
