My Story/PSA for rolled sprinters (joke)
Hey all,
My name is Fredrick Ford and Im a student at the University of Oregon currently. I used to be a sprinter and jumper, holding the 100m state record until this year. (just broken)
I started in my sophmore year of hs, coach saw me run a 400m timed trial for the first time and clocked a 53. I ran all throughout hs reaching 10.62 and 21.75 in sprints and 23" in LJ, 46"2 in TJ.
When it came down to college I had 8 offers, with the likes of UNM, ASU and Army. I committed to ASU but weeks later was haulted by the walk on slash through the NCAA. Last minute received acceptance at the University of Oregon and now Im here at the UO run club.
