Now I'm doing OK at 800m and 1500m, but how is everyone doing the 100m, 200m and 400m and hurdles events?

I just get left for dead all the time and I'm not quite sure what more I can do to improve?!

I've tried timing the start. It is generally 4.5 - 5 seconds from the starter saying set to the gun going off and it takes roughly 2 seconds for the bar to move all the way to red. It will take some tweaking but is the only way I can see for an effective start

At least with the starts I know there's room for improvement, but how can my button bashing technique not be correct?!

I'm a waggler i'm afraid. Put the analogue stick onto the base of your middle finger at the top of the palm and move your hand from side to side as fast as you possibly can. I get good speed. Only event I can't get is the 100m and hurdles due to my poor starting

I've only done the training for the 100m sprint and I got 9.85 seconds

I'm training on that atm although my best time so far is 11.83.

Tried the 'X' & 'O' but the waggle seems far easier.

I keep pressing o and Square, like on Track & Field on PS1

Im finding it hard to do both o and x and waggle the stick in the short distance running events, the 800m and 1500m are really easy.

I'm the same. I can't get the hang of the waggle, and I'm embarrassingly off the pace in the short distance running events.

R3 left & right as fast as you can, I find it far easier than X & O.

My best on the 100M so far is 10.67, I've only done it about 10 times, though.

Edit: Just got 10.62.

I have mastered the waggle now, I have just one the 400m and 200m using it.

Looks like I'm gonna have to step up my training regime to get my waggle technique perfected before the Neolympics

Just came second there in the 100m with a time of 10.33.

I'll get 9 something before the night is out now that I've sussed out the waggle thing.
