Yeah, I can do that,  Is 3 big steps accurate for extra 3 metres and how big is a big step.

I will do it using 4 steps for one meter heel to toe
But will have to make marking on grass

Why the hell would you do that. Just run the goddamn extra three metres! You make everything so hard for yourself.

Thinking of running 100m on Monday, I'm not going to fuss over extra three meters. Today was windy but sprints went well.

I don't understand what the big deal is with running exactly 100m, as that is not important as long as it is around 100m.

I'm not arguing that. I'm saying it's bizarre to say "I'll run 97m and then just extrapolate my time to 100m"...when you could just run an extra three metres. You've already measured the distance you're running to 97m...why not just round it up so you have a standard distance with times to compare it to. Whatever, not important. Just keep up the running and drop your times (and find a new place to run with no slant!).

I look for marks that already exist on the grass and measured them to 97m that's why i would have to add an extra mark for the 100m, but thinking of maybe a flag or powdered chalk on the grass.

But i understand what you mean.

Now it is raining so I will see what to do, if grass is too slippery I will have to run on concrete.

Will see how it goes.

Thanks

Hahahaha^^^

I had to use two sticks to indicate 100m mark, so I run 17m followed by running 80m football pitch which I run pass the goal posts then 3m after I had to add the sticks, so instead of using the goal posts to mark the finish line I had to keep an eye out for the sticks to run through and know when to stop the watch. It was a good day and felt fast during running but felt I might have have adjusted my form in terms of I decided to relax and float to maintain my speed instead of trying harder and decelerate and that might have ruined my form concentrating too much but felt fast only near the end. Also when i pressed the stop watch and during running i heard noise of the watch being pressed and was confused but pressed it again quickly and at the finish line I saw it was 16.37, this is why i don't like running with a stop watch it accidentally presses as i have to have my finger ready on the stop button but this is the only way, but i knew there was a time gap between the stop and start in between, so have been generous to round it to 17.00 as after 3 min rest and ran again I got 17.63 seconds. After the third set it started rained and really heavily, so had to finish the last 2 reps left.
