This outdoor start is mostly used in time trials or to practice your running start.
Whichever foot you are more comfortable starting on is the foot that will be in front.
- With your starting leg in front, make a lower case (y) with your feet.
- Now that you’ve done that, go down in a 90 degree knee bend. Make sure you keep your feet in the (y) as you go down.
- Next, step back with your back foot and rock back on it with your body weight. This is called daylight.
- Next, rock forward and down. This is called loading.
- Finally, as all your weight is transferred back to your front foot again, lunge forward and run using the duck run style described in the Off to a Great Start with the Duck Run post.
