350m Time Trial

Sha April 19, 2008 4

This is posted in advance via timestamp. I’ll be away for the next 2 weeks

My video of my last time-trial two weeks back

I did pretty bad … well timing wise, but considering that I just put in two times a week of training

You won’t be able to see the first part of the 120m plus run

That’s the best angle I could find at the stadium

By the way I’m trying to compare YouTube vs Vimeo
I was impressed by Rinaz video uploads. Will there be difference in video quality
Both sites I uploaded the same video

YouTube (350m Video)


Vimeo (350m Video)

I find Vimeo is better than YouTube in terms of video quality

But the downside, there’s an upload limit of 500MB per week for Vimeo

Still I’ll keep on using Vimeo from now on

Thanks Rinaz for the recommendation!

By the way, I used video recording method these to get a more accurate timing

Also plus holding onto a watch to time myself can be rather difficult

You should try it …

DV camcorders are dirt cheap these days anyway

My Time Trial Conclusion

350m Timing Clocked at: 46.4s (My PB is 43.2s btw, way off hur)

Breakdown: 24+ (200m mark), 38+ (300m mark), 46.4 (End)

So that’s 14s from 200m-300m and 8s for the last 50m

Thus my predicted 400m timing would be late 54s range … muahaha oh boy I’m crap

So there you go, by training 2x a week, you can still do a ‘superb’ 54s still

[sarcasm on] Imagine if I were to train 6x a week, I could be a world record holder [/sarcasm off]

    Yes, vimeo is pretty sweet :) I think its superior to many video streaming sites its pretty obvious from the two comparison, the youtube and the vimeo clip of the stadium :)
