He talks very highly about you. I'm a 200-400mtrs sprinter from India and currently trainin under Gavin Fernandes in Sydney. I've run a great season this year with a PB of 58.1 (hand time) and Gav's very confident that i will run sub 55 next season, coz my training has def stepped up from last year. I'd like to know how i can connect with you on a one on one. As i train all by myself in India currently, and chances of going to Sydney right now are a lil lax coz of visa prblms, and i'm very keen to be a part of the 2012 games. So anyway u could help with more information besides the site...?? I'm a sports therapist by profession and since gavin's a movement specialist, we do some very specific stuff with regards to Yoga-Tai chi.. Hoping to hear from you soon. Regards. Ayesha Hey..

Obviously it's been a while and we didn't use a race plan like you described so I thought I would give it a shot. Now I have not really been training for the 400 (or consistently for that matter), but I got out fast (lane 2 of 8), assessed the competition through the first 200. I was trailing two guys and ATTACKED the last curve, and was neck in neck with the leader through the last 100. We both started losing it with in the final stretch, and he just got me at the line, but I was pretty happy with a 61.05 even though my high school self is laughing at me. Thanks for the video.

You wouldn’t happen to have any tips and advice on running the 60 yard dash would you? Great video. You wouldn’t happen to have any tips and advice on running the 60 yard dash would you?

I've been only running competitevly for 1 year and just started the 400 last month. I'm 16 years old and my pr is 55.10 which isn't great but I've barely trained for the 400 and hope to improve my pr with this video. Just to comment on one thing you've said about that split secound inwhich you have to decide whether you are going to run or quite. I've never considered quitting in an 400 and dont plan on starting anytime soon. Also with regards to the fear of pain in running a 400 i'm never afraid to run the 400. The pain is good and the reward for running a good race is better. Thanks for the tips Hey Latif, thanks for the video.

I am a sophomore in college and my PR in the 200 is 25.07 and my PR in the 400 is 58.1 which I got my junior year in high school. I really want and need to PR but I cant seem to mentally get into it. I tighten up at the 200 mark every time. Do you think I should be working on my endurance or maybe getting stronger in the weight room? or maybe both? Thanks. Hey I really appreciate the video.

I been focusing on that this past year as a freshman in high school and ended up getting a 4:49 . I was just wondering if you could do that. That would be very helpful. But if you can not answer my question and you have some one in mind just have them hit me up. THANKS! Jesse Stanley Hey Latif Thomas,
