What changed? In 2009, none of the JW15 girls did the 500 in less than 40 seconds, the closest was 40.079. In 2010 two did, our own Emily (who rode a 0.6 second PB and got silver) and Macey Stewart from Tassie who rode a 39.139. Last year at the Nationals Emily rode a 41.772, so she found 1.922 seconds in a year, Macey went from a 41.471 500 down to a 39.139, finding 2.332 seconds. That's a huge improvement in a year from both girls. It's also a big raising of the bar for JW15 compared to last year.
Looking at the sprint qualifying we see a similar picture. In 2009 four girls went under 14 seconds, in 2010 seven of them did, and our two riders of interest, Emily went from a 14.145 to a 13.445 and Macey 14.189 down to a 13.367. It's a lot faster and the competition a lot tighter this year than it was last year, that's for sure. Some things may have helped, it was very hot in at DISC yesterday and also quite humid, so that helps with fast times.
There's some amazingly quick girls there this year, and Emily's one of the very best.
