  1. just stand up and lean forward. there's no point in starting like you would with blocks because there are no blocks 2 push off on.


  2. you should probably start in a down start... you don't have the same push as you do with blocks but you can still push off the ground, especially if you have spikes.

    if you are used to using blocks then a down start will keep your form in the first couple of steps (which is the most important in a 100) the same as usual.

  3. You should start down of course, and I usually put my weaker foot first so that i get a good push off but my first real kick is my second one and with my strong foot. Also, just have quick reflexes when you here the gun go off.
