Could you imagine being that person? Imagine what that would feel like: You’d crouch down, get your stance ready, and then with a burst of energy propel yourself forward. The wind would fly across your face so forcefully that tears would begin to run down the side of your face - your legs dancing across the ground. Bystanders would surely stand with jaw-dropping expressions, as you raced by, an indistinguishable blur. </div><div> </div><div>Of course I’ve never felt this incredible speed (I was a mediocre high school track athlete)… the closest I’ve come to experiencing such a rush came when I decided to drive with my head stuck outside my car window. </div><div> </div><div>While most people, like me, can only envision what it would be like to have that raw explosive ability, one recently graduated college student, Allyson Felix, need not imagine. In a few months Felix will be able to say that she is the best, the fastest in the world. She’s competing at the upcoming Beijing Olympics; her eye is on the gold.</div><br /><div></div>Tons of college students are heading to Beijing to compete in the Olympics this year. Allyson Felix, a 22-year-old USC alum and world class sprinter, is one of them. Look for her to score the gold in August!<br /><br />For the rest of the Allyson Felix sprint training article <a href="http://www.collegeotr.com/syracuse_university/allyson_felix_is_faster_than_you_8600">Click Here</a><br /><div></div>Athletes' Accelerationhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14187699836721744912noreply@blogger.com0
