Hailing from Bomet in Kenya's Rift Valley Province, Cheruiyot's international debut was at the 2008 Frankfurt Marathon.[1] Since he was not experienced, he had to purchase his own way and turn in a time under 2:14:00 to be reimbursed.[1] He proceeded to surprise everyone, including himself, winning the race with a course record 2:07:21

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: A Journey to Running Fast and Jumping High
« on: July 31, 2018, 10:29:47 am »when are you gonna race, man? like, find an open meet and race? for example: https://www.visitleevalley.org.uk/en/content/cms/outdoors/athletics-centre/competition-entry-forms/sprints-meetings/
it's about measurement, but even more than that it's about learning. at the meets i went to a few years ago, i impressed exactly no one with my times. but i chatted to a couple of fast people who were impressed simply that i'd decided to try to get faster as an adult, entirely on my own, and test myself. that's what you're doing, too. if i'd decided to keep trying to get faster at sprinting, instead of realizing that sprinting was one in a long line tangents distracting me away from jumping, i'd have followed up with a couple of those people. hobbyists love sharing their hobby.
http://www.openmeetings.co.uk/find-an-open-meet.php
In UK athletics you have to be registered with British athletics, which I am and also be a member of a club, which the price is £62.00 which is ridiculous.
The real truth why I don't race besides being too occupied to go out of town competition, also because my training is like a stage by stage training so I am training the acceleration part of the 100m so I haven't trained the speed maintenance and deceleration to a certain degree, I fear of getting a bad time and resulting in low motivation to train.
I would like to compete but would prefer if it was local until I feel confident to go to bigger and out of town meets.
identify your fears, attack relentlessly.

well that's really awesome.
you'll be overwhelmed by how much athletics you want & can do there.. hah.
so many great people to run with, races, etc.. probably also have ultimate leagues and other stuff. you'll have you some fun!
