Although these are specific tapes that cover the hurdling events, don’t forget to check out official Olympic coverage videos to see athletes who competed for the Gold. These titles should give you a good start to improving conditioning and technique to this specialty running event:
If your interest is more into being entertained than instructed than you may enjoy watching Mariel Hemingway as a pentathlete who tries her best at hurdling in the 1982 release Personal Best or see the 1996 biographical movie about hurdle great Gail Devers (played by Charlayne Woodard) entitled Run for the Dream: The Gail Devers Story, although the focus here is on her overcoming Graves’ Disease and her ability to return to the track for the 100 meter sprint event in Barcelona. Another outstanding resource for you can be found at HurdlesFirst.com.
