i’ve wanted to do this ever since i saw an amazing pole vaulter (Jordan Thull) at some track meets during Indoor Track. So for the rest of the year I tried to get my coaches to let me do it, but I wan’t strong enough. We don’t have a track so I couldn’t practice. But once during spring break I went with some other boys (two of whom were training for decathalon and the other who does pole vault) and learned how to pole vault. Then, finally as a sophomore I was able to pole vault.
Make sure you get stronger. The deal between my coaches and I was that I couldn’t pole vault till I could do five pull-ups.
