I am a right lead legged hurdler and I need to be able to go over the hurdle with my left lead leg on the curve of 300lh races...I havnt done it in 3 years so it is hard to teach my body to do it. Any suggestions???

if you cant hold form when leading with your left, dont. sure it saves a little bit when leading with the left on the turn, but not that much. and if you cant hold form, you lose more time then you get.

instead of trying to practice being able to lead with your left
try practicing so that your steps allow you to always lead with your right :)
& while your doing that, extending your stride is a lot better than stuttering
though eventualy, you want get to the point when you know exactly how to run to get your right leg every time
though you have to adjust based on your lane assignment
im the exact same way .. cept opposite .. i can only lead with my left
