Hey, my name is Ben and I'm 19 years old. I am thinking of picking up decathlon but there is very little info in Australia (my home country) on coaches and clubs that offer the combined training that decathletes require. Can you help? Thanks! IP: 213.55.1... |

I picked up track and field in my senior year but my school had no program, so the most training I've ever done is several lunch time sessions with my PE teacher (a former decathlete). I have a 1.75m in HJ, 30m in discus, 11.8 s in 100m and 5:10 in 1500m, and that is without any real training. Do I stand a chance if I take up decathlon seriously? Also I have never so much as held a pole vault pole, so will that hurt me in any way? Thanks! IP: 197.156.... |
