I did HS sprinting as cross training for fencing. Fencing is extremely asymmetric, to the point where my right (front) leg could lift twice the weight of my back (left) leg. It was freakish, and probably not healthy lol. It made my sprinting coach really uncomfortable, because my stride looked weird on the straights.

The curves felt great for me though, I really liked the 200m better than the 100m. Can't imagine how shitty it'd have been for a left handed fencer to run track, because the big muscles would be on the inside leg.
