Happy Indoor Anniversary to Us!

November 22, 2021
Adele San Miguel

It was exactly 6 years ago that we signed the lease for our indoor facility. We had been renting the track at a local high school, and for a time, jumping in our side yard!  We only intended to have the space through the cold and rainy indoor season, but athletes kept showing up for practice. The ability to train independent of the weather meant that our vaulters benefitted from consistent practices and later that season, performed at the highest…

Usain Bolt

Running Cross Country Does Not Benefit Pole Vaulters

August 3, 2016
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…

Adele San Miguel

Recent Chapel Hill graduate, Dillon Kopec, has consistently impressed us with his ‘no excuses’ mentality to competition. Dillon is the strong, silent type and an extremely coachable athlete. This last year, Dillon saved his best for last, jumping at his PR all season, and improving it in the final meet. Dillon will vault on the Roanoke College track team next year. We send him on his way with every confidence in his success!

June 9, 2016
Adele San Miguel

For the past 3 years, it has been our privilege to coach recent Cary Academy graduate, Carter Mathis. Extremely athletic, Carter had already met with success in wrestling, basketball, and soccer before attempting track and field as a high school freshman. Carter’s overall challenge was to master pole vault technique and to trust himself.  He persevered through the ups and downs of a vaulter’s career, and this past season qualified for New Balance Nationals. Carter competed in New York in…
