before t0ddday blows a gasket: without a FAT system or video with a clear shot of the finish line it's impossible to time sprints that short with anything close to the degree of accuracy you're claiming. strong chance that your measurements are just wrong.
ye i agree with you, both my 30m and 60m times would have errors but the corellation between the two dont match if i am timing both the same way, why is my 60m way slower then my 30m.
if my time was really 4.4 seconds and 8.4 seconds. this would not make sense the 60m time should be a bit faster.
Lol thanks for LBSS to beat me to it...
I think the point here is not only your poor timing method but the fact that you certainly were not timing the sprinters you saw with the same timing method you time yourself with...
Would be pretty easy to figure out if your right as well... Why don't you just run with these sprinters?
If they are running their 60m significantly faster than you then I would bet that you are not ahead of them at 30m...
Rather than relying on your broken methods just jump in a run w someone else! If somehow you run w sprinters and your are significantly ahead at 30m and still getting destroyed at 60m... Ok you have a problem. Do I think that is the case? NO. But I've been wrong, just figure it out.
**** also whenever you get data first perform a quick sanity check to see if it makes sense - if it's garbage throw it out.
You are claiming a 4.1 30m split. Usain Bolt goes 3.7-3.85. Sub 10 guys go 3.9 all the time. You are claiming to be just a bit off from the fastest guys in the world.
Then you are claiming a 4.0 second split from 30-60. 4.1 ~ 4.0.
So your claim is that you run the same time for your flying 30m as you do for a 30m from a dead stop where you have to accelerate your non moving body. Either you are the most out of shape person in the world and fatiguing from 30-60... Or what is most likely the case... Your data is garbage. Nobody runs the same time from 0-30 as 30-60. I'm sure you don't either. Your data is garbage. Throw it out. This is why I told you to stop timing like you are!
