5/23 KC. Alex worked around 4-5.5, trying some 5-5 step approaches to avoid the more abrupt turn of the 6-4. Also worked on angling plant foot to corner. Jess came over and popped over 4-1.5 off a 6-step a couple times.

5/16 KC. Sam, Maia and Rachel were joined by Alex and Jerome. Jumped up on 2-mat stack, did some short-approach with bungee, and then fulls at moderate heights. Sam worked around 4 to 4-2, Maia was jumping well with multiple clearances at 4-5.5 and some near misses at 4-6.5. Alex jumped around those heights as well. Rachel had multiple clearances at those heights. Jerome worked in 6-0 to 6-2 range, only missing twice at 6-2 and getting three.

5/3 MU. Maia, Jess and Des did a combo hurdle workout. Swings, cycles, dribbles, 3x3 5-step hurdles, warm up start over 1 and then 2. 2x7H with early hurdles -1, middle -2, later -3. Everyone handled that well. Des and Jess then did a 400H reps. First over 3, then from 3 through 7 and then 7 through finish. 1 min between reps. Jess ran in low 5s for first set, mid-5s for next sets. Des was mid-5s for first set, upper 5s to 6s for second set and mid-6s for final set. Maia did some 800m pace work, running a 400 and 300 at better than 3 min pace. Holly trained on her own at another time. Jerica and Jess did some 4x1 exchanges, extending the takeoff distance to 25 shoes.

5/2 KC. Maia, Sam, Rachel, Savana and Alex were in for jump session. Did pre-comp warm up rehearsal and then 7-10 jumps (beginners took more), starting at individual opening height and working up from there. Sam worked mostly around 4-1, Savana 4-3, Maia 4-5, Alex 4-7 and Rachel 4-9. Rachel backed up a couple of feet, brought more speed and worked on taking off further away with some success.
