Hello!
Are here someone with Long jump experience and can provide some training details? I am basically doing sprints but I like doing long jump a lot. ( PB 6,07 ) . I have done it once so far and I haven't had any jumping training, but I would like to get better at it. And also can I reach 7m next year with some training in LJ now?

Yeah. I do some of that. I will include more jumping and more long jump drills. Let's see if I can get to 6.5m at the end of January next year. Will do my best.
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
