Former University of Oregon dual-sport star Devon Allen will have the full endorsement of the crowd at his alma mater in this year's world athletics championships, as he aims to live up to his own great expectations in the 110 metres hurdles.
He faced a serious challenge at the national championships two weeks later, clinching third place by a mere three thousandths of a second, in 13.09. "I'm in great shape, I'm in the best shape of my life, I'm the fastest I've ever been, so there's not really much I have to do other than feel good by world champs," the 27-year-old twice Olympian said.
Among his few areas of planned self-improvement were cleaning up his start and maintaining his form through the finish, after getting"twisted" toward the end of recent Diamond League wins in Oslo and Paris.
