Hurdles..?

If you are a good 400 runner, do you think you could also try the 400m hurdles? or vise versa?|||Yea i did that a few times. I ran the 400m in 46 and the 400m hurdles in 50. 5


If you can get the proper form down, it shouldnt be too hard to master the hurdle; and with 400m endurance and speed, it should help alot.|||yea defenitely. both require speed and strength. the only thing that could slow u down in the hurdles is if you fall or if u jump too high. remember, doing hurdles is stepping over them, not jumping. its like sprinting the whole way, the only difference is that you lift up ur legs more when u go over the hurdle. the most common mistake is dat people jump rather than stepping over them. as long as u do this, u will get good times in hurdles|||You'll never know if you don't try! = ) Good luck!|||if you already run the 400, go for it. i love the 400m hurdles. i used to run the 3000 and would do the 400m hurdles for fun. theres something really exciting about getting your pace just right.


plus the 400m hurdles are way lower than the 100m hurdles. give it a shot!
