I only started hurdles last year as a master athlete at age 58, thank god, they drop to a lower height this summer. Did 60m hurdles 36" with no practice. Cleared them all which was my goal, now I work on technique. Have to use home made ones for the time being until everything opens again.
@@stevespyder well, that's awesome. Did you hurdle in high school or Secondary? not sure what you guys call it or is this something you picked up afterwards? either way still awesome at 58!
@moselc.09 Actually I did steeplechase, and still do now. Figured hurdles would be easier than 300lb immovable barriers. Was trying to make the 'c' standard for athletic funding just over 30 years ago at age 28. Had not competed for 30 years. Decided to get back into athletics as part of my recovery. www.guelphtoday.com/local-news/from-recovery-to-gold-baldamus-adds-to-his-medal-count-2155501
