My first Saldanha drag event was very scary. lol. What an experience. But it was a good one. Didn't end the way I expected it to but I'll be back in action soon enough. It was a big learning curve as I tried to run it differently to the way I would do a 400m. Which was probably not the best move.

Hope you enjoy the video!
