Answer 1

Hey im 14 just finished 8th grade. My second year of track. I ran the 100m in 11.31 (School Record)  on electronic timers . Any way here are the tips.

1. Squat!!!! you probally have never done this but it strengthens your legs a lot.

2. Buy/borrow some spikes, if ur confident go for the gold nike maxcatt II thats what i got.

3. Don't run scared if some one is faster your running against, your best times come with the best competition.

4. Don't long jump no matter what it always will mess up something.

5. When the conditions are set for a good time (steady temp i like hot weather, good track, backwind,etc.) don't do hurdles this messed me up in conference because you have no recovery time.

6. Practice in blocks, you might look stupid but better than messing up on a race start.

I could give you more of the stuff I did and am still doing, im gonna beat 10.8 in hs to break that record. But you gotta say like height and weight. Like im 5'8 132
