Knee was really sore when I woke up and started my workout but it seems to get better and I didn't end up having to change anything. I tried to really "face my fear" on the runway and try to open up the hop phase but it's tough when I know it's going to hurt. I had one really good first phase pass where I got 5m but on all of them I choke up before landing so I think I'm cutting off 30-40cm just by the nature of the drill, where there's no next phase. On the video I clearly land looking at my feet and then run it out so I'm hoping I will be able to hit 5.40-5.60m in a meet. I don't even need to be able to control it, I just want to hit the distance and then focus on controlling it.
   I had one runway that felt PERFECT, six solid steps of driving, five of coming slowly upright and six at the board. I couldn't get that feeling again but 1/8 isn't too bad... That would be about 1 perfect runway a meet including practice run throughs. I think if I can get more consistent and recapture the feeling, very good things will happen.
