Over the years, I've built a business and community focused on helping athletes, especially sprinters, unlock their full potential. Through my own journey, I've gained unique insights into speed training, recovery, and performance, which I now share with athletes who aspire to go pro or reach new levels. How I Got Here… High School: Became a state champion in track and field, but my speed plateaued for four years. Despite this, I pushed forward, determined to improve. College Start: Earned a Division I scholarship to play running back at New Mexico, where I was a two-sport athlete in football and track. During that time, I worked two jobs, balancing athletics and financial responsibilities. Freshman year was challenging, and I lost confidence in myself, ultimately feeling the need to reset. Redshirt Freshman Year: Began to regain my confidence, but faced a season-ending injury early in the year. It was a low point, but I pushed through, grinding harder than ever to get back on track. Comeback: Returned stronger and won the conference meet for track and field despite the setbacks. From there, I transferred back to Wisconsin, focusing solely on track. Track Success: At Wisconsin, I broke school records in the 60m, 100m, and 200m, became a 6-time NCAA All-American, and earned a spot on Team USA. Now: I compete as a professional track and field athlete and dedicate myself to coaching athletes, building a supportive community, and helping others achieve their goals in sports and life. Today, my portfolio includes my coaching business, a growing online community, and partnerships with other organizations to further support athletes in achieving their dreams. My focus is on delivering real value and education, whether you're a beginner or aiming to go pro. To All the Athletes Out There We're all on our own path, facing unique challenges and obstacles. Every setback is part of an epic story in the making. Whether you achieve victory or learn from the journey, both outcomes mean growth and success. Keep pushing forward. May your dreams fuel you through any obstacle. Remember This. Yesterday is gone, And Tomorrow Is Not Promised, But Today Is A Gift Its Up To You To Maximize It And Protect Your Dream Never stop, Lawrence
