Oregon-born sprinter Ryan Bailey got a confidence-boosting win on Sunday at the Euro Athletics Association meet in Dubnica, Slovakia.
Bailey ran 10.13 into a 1.5 meters per second headwind, beating Michael Frater (second) and Michael Rogers (third). Bailey got a good start and led throughout.
Although not a personal best, the wind reading may indicate Bailey is ready for a sub-10 second time.
“Physically, he felt great afterward and is excited to end the season in the next few days,” Bailey’s coach, John Parks, said.
Bailey is on a waiting list for the Brussels meet and it is doubtful that he would get into the 100 there. On Sunday, he’s planning to run in Rieti, Italy.
