Sprinter Aaron Brown eases into season, plans to peak at world championships

Aaron Brown envisions running sub-19.90 seconds over 200 metres this season, though it was probably a stretch to have expected such a result in the first Diamond League race of 2019 in Doha, Qatar, on Friday.

Aaron Brown of Toronto has focused part of his early-season training on the final 50 metres of the 200, his nemesis throughout last season. Improvement in this area, Brown says, will help him run sub-19.90 seconds in 2019. He clocked 20.20 in Friday's Diamond League season opener.
