At the Canberra Australia Track Classic earlier today, the Sudanese immigrant Australia promising middle distance, Peter Bol was close to best with the home straight scintillating kick to finish 800m ahead of strong pack in 1:45.23s.
But Jye Edwards was more impressive in 1500m after hurling out his last speed endurance prowess to close the race in winning time of 3:37.30.
Linden Hall was even close to break 1500m female national record of Jessica Hall 4:00.42 but finished in 4:02.02.
Jye has been circling around the Australian middle distance scene for years now. A talented junior, destined perhaps for greatest, but held back by those all to common injuries. But now, under the close eye of one of Australia’s most successful coaches in history, Dick Telford.
“I started with Dick at the beginning of 2017, so coming up to 4 years now. I would’ve been lucky to accumulate 6 months of training total across my first 2 years in Canberra, so that was far from ideal. I can’t thank Dick enough for his patience and all the work he has put into me over the last few years”, explaining his rise to form of late.
“Dick and I have had to change quite a few things in regard to my training schedule, keeping the mileage slightly lower and adding a little more quality to sessions. We’ve also combined a couple days of cross training a week to reduce the impact on the legs whilst keeping the aerobic training up. This, along with some changes in footwear and specific strength exercises, has probably been the most substantial differences in my training of late”, he concluded.
