re: when my name pops up

Are you participating in track during the offseason. Not sure where you live in the south (top or bottom), but doing sprints up the hill could do some benefit. Also, there is or used to be a large hill by McKinley middle by the park that is great for that also. Used to run those when playing for the Rams back in the day. Alternatively the should still have the sled with the free weights applied to it that you can run the straight aways on the track or sprint the field with. Either it's all building you burst and acceleration.
