Jayla Kirkland Runs US #1 7.48 60m With Almost No Warmup


Jayla Kirkland had to rush her warmup at the Holiday Invitational on Saturday. After only getting 10 minutes until she had to get into the blocks, Kirkland ran a US #1 7.48 to win the 60 meter dash. It's an impressive season opening mark just three hundredths of a seconds off of her 7.45 personal record from the NBNI final last year. Afterwards, she talks with Tim Loreman of MileSplit Alabama about the performance, signing with FSU, and goals for 2017.

Her 7.48 would also have ranked US #14 for the entire indoor track season last year.
