Sprint Question- 30M to 60M times

Are you timing yourself? Seems like that would be hard for such short sprints.

Maybe you were a bit tired by the time you got to the 60 m time trial? (assuming you went 30, 40, 60)

I hit my watch then take off. I hold it in one hand with my finger on the start/stop button. I stop it again when my foot crosses the line. I don't try to judge a lean or anything like that. I just felt it was better and more consistent to time it this way for now.

I thought about being a little tired. The time is way off though, close to a second.

times? and what does the calculator say?

I did do a 200m time trial and the calcultors won't even extrapulate to that because the time was so slow. LOL

I've been getting back in to sprinting, doing some easy sprints, etc., and today I did some short time trials.

I did a 30m 40m and 60m trial. When I put my 30m and 40m times in to calcultors to predict my 60m times, the time it says I should run my 60m is a lot faster than what I did run it.

Now, this could mean:

1. I'm starting too fast (is there such a thing?); or

2. I'm not starting too fast and I need to work on my speed endurance; or

3. The calculators are off.

Can anyone lend a fellow white boy a hand here?
