Uploaded by Flo Track | January 17, 2008

Whenever I film workouts I always get the urge to participate. I want to pace the first 200 of 300s or at least do the cool down. Sometimes I find myself stretching for no good reason other than when I think I can still do any workout even though I spend all my time in front of a computer or behind a camera. Most of the time I am filming distance runners, but yesterday I was hanging out with Carolina Kluft and she was doing jumps, so of course I started seeing how far I could jump, trying to match Carolina's PR or PB depending on where you are from. Carolina's PB is 6.97 meters and my first jump went abysmal 4 odd meters. So I decided to make a goal of getting over 5 meters. After coaching from the best female athlete in the world and a lot of tries I .............. Well I will let you watch the video. Hope everyone who is running this weekend gets the job done, I look forward to seeing some PBs and PRs from the community.

mark, you are a legend. your work keeps getting better and better- flotrack 2008 is especially off to a great start. videos like these bring our sport to life and would surely bring more fans to the sport. carolina is a fun-loving as usual. hope when she retires (in a few decades) she could lead the iaaf! next time you get to hang out with her, i hope you will practice some swedish too!

Transcribed and instantly blogged... http://www.teamolympians.com "I think it is not about the results or being a champion, it's about finding your thing and living your dream."

And my dream would be to have a "little" gym like that to play in by myself and share with guys wanting to long jump in jeans.

that was really cool. Another athlete's personality brought to life. You're a pioneer Mark, keep it up.

Christina Floreani 5 years ago

Alright mark! One of your best--of your videos, jumps, and backflips--all in one! Definitely golden.

So Mark, while Carolina's helping you with these backflips, did you ever think to yourself, "crap, if I kick her in the face, or if she lands funny on her ankle while she's messing around with me, I just injured one of the greatest Hept women of all time and it will be completely my fault..." ?
