It might not seam that sprinters communicate real life challenges with each other but, they do and have concerns that is similar to other athletes career choice such as:
- Faster times: Sprinters are always looking to shave precious seconds or even milliseconds off their personal best times.
- Improved technique: Sprinters continually work on perfecting their starts, drives, and finishes to ensure they're running efficiently and effectively.
- Increased power: Building explosive power through strength training and plyometrics is essential for generating speed and acceleration.
- Better conditioning: Sprinters need to develop the endurance to maintain their speed over the duration of the race, which can be anywhere from 50 to 400 meters.
- Mental toughness: Sprinters need to develop strategies to manage pressure, stay focused, and perform at their best when it matters most.

- Competitive success: Ultimately, sprinters want to win races, break records, and stand on top of the podium.
However, sprinters have other key specifics not communicated as much effectively outside of their sport, sprinters may want:
1. Financial security: Many sprinters want to ensure they have a stable financial future, as their athletic career is relatively short.
2. Personal growth: Sprinters may seek self-improvement, learning new skills, and developing their character.
3. Relationships: Building and maintaining strong relationships with family, friends, and partners is important for many sprinters.
4. Health and wellness: Sprinters often prioritize their physical health and may also focus on mental well-being, nutrition, and recovery techniques.
5. Travel and exploration: Many sprinters enjoy exploring new places, experiencing different cultures, and taking breaks from their intense training schedules.
6. Philanthropy and giving back: Some sprinters may be passionate about supporting social causes, charitable organizations, or community initiatives.
7. Education and personal development: Sprinters may pursue higher education, certifications, or vocational training to prepare for life after athletics.
8. Creative expression: Some sprinters may have creative interests, such as music, art, writing, or design, which they may pursue in their free time.
9. Business ventures: Many sprinters are entrepreneurs, investing in or starting their own businesses, which can provide a sense of fulfillment and financial security.
10. Legacy and impact: Sprinters may strive to leave a lasting impact on their sport, community, or the world at large, inspiring others through their achievements and values.
Keep in mind that these are generalizations, and individual sprinters may have unique aspirations and interests outside of their sport that are not communicated and generally over looked, even if sprinters don't know it the essence of their conversation is the same. Most sprinters long term view of of their career choice can be summarized in two statements
1 Not having more sprint competitions: as options to forge out a profitable revenue driven career.
2 Achieving financial security: This goal involves building an emergency fund, paying off debt and ensuring a stable financial future within the core aspect of their sprint industry.
Wanting a sprint circuit (format) other than track and field is long over due and I'm not talking about a circuit for elite (1 - 2%) sprinters only. We are talking about the 98%ers, the university grads, the general speedsters, the boarder liners, the up and comers. These are the sprinters that are at the heart of the sprint industry. Their drive and talent is real but, many of the time they don't have the exposure or sprint circuit to attract investors or sponsors to make their goal a reality.
For that to happen they must be willing to communicate with each other and really listen, be in tuned to what the market place is saying and what its got to offer. Am I even close or am I missing some facts about what sprinters really want for their life and career as athletes?
