I saw girls doing that Maria, but I could never do it, there were also a few things our instructor encourages us NOT to do but we would try them anyway x

I never did less than 800 m till then and was rubbish your right about the effects on stamina it did not feel nice afterward but I did 4 x 400 in relay but was on 2nd leg so never had to push myself too much I'm not sure but don't think the girls do 4 x 400 m relays now either I'm not sure about the club I did a bit for Harriers jr league ametuers but nothing big trying to think I don't think it was a league meet I was 18 at the time so couldn't have been with school did a bit for Dudley and district too we used to meet at tatty youth centre and lap the block and across to school track

I used to be able to sprint really fast, 100m or 200m.

Don't think I'm so fast now, and I'd give myself 2 black eyes anyway.

I could never do the long distances though, I shuddered at the thought of the cross country.

Yuck, and also Ouch

I struggled with the sprints Maria my brother who is 6'7" could sprint fast lol I never could catch him but used to hurt me too much I prefered to build up my stamina
