Adele San Miguel

When Matt Dillon started vaulting with us in the spring of his junior year, he had never pushed his athletic limits. When he returned as a senior from Needham-Broughton High School, we knew Matt would make the New Balance Nationals qualifying height, because when Matt is on, he is on. He improved 37.5” between November and May. Our favorite Matt story took place at the 2016 NCHSAA 4A Outdoor State Championships. Matt shocked only himself when he placed 2nd at the…

After some intense days of training, Chloe jumped the height and has continued her upward climb. In the last meet of her high school season, Chloe enjoyed another breakthrough, clearing a…

Adele San Miguel

Interesting article on why Usain Bolt, the Jamaican sprinter who is the fastest person ever timed,  never runs a mile. There are significant differences in sprint running and distance running that require two different methods of training. Short distance runs focus on bursts and quickness out of the gate; longer distances require more patience and focus on controlling speed and energy over a longer period of time. The top pole vaulters, be they in high school, college, or professional,  DO…
