Trust me, that's how I used to be so you're not really alone! Eventually I became faster by testing myself to see how fast I could run/jog and it turns out I could run a mile in a matter of 9:55 minutes, which is pretty slow considering my age! I started to run more, about 2-3 times a day around my block- 2 miles- and the fast that I could! So a week after or so I began to see some improvement in not only how fast I was but on the vault I improved load also! Goodluck and hope I helped! Never give up!!!

What I do is start at the vault and then run and when I think I should be hurdling stop. Then every time you vault you don't have to worry about your steps. Also don't be afraid to swash into the vault a couple of times. The vault is shaped like a tounge for a reason. It is so that if you mess up your run you don't get hurt because you ran into it.
