    Great vid Ian! This is something we've been coaching for a while as a better way to start as opposed to the standing up straight with your front heel on the line and toe pulled back method. We also advise to use a slightly shorter stride to get up to race pace and relax into the natural stride length as speed increases. This really helps reduce LOC on the short fast races that start into a curve. I think we first noticed Taylor Ewert doing it and thought it really made a lot of sense.

    Thanks, Dan. If there are topics you think should be covered in future videos, please message me or leave a note in the comments. Whatever you are doing in Houston is working!

    Great video that explains an overlooked part of the race. That official is a handsome looking guy. Maybe he can interview you for a segment on the HS RW Channel?

    I don't think HSRW can afford my hourly interview rate! Thanks for your encouragement and for all you do for RW over at HSRW.
