Do you think it is hard to do. Would a person 5'9 be able to do it? A girl? Please help me because track starts this Monday. Do you recommend any other things I should try? Thanks.

Whats gonna happen?
The pole vault is a time-consuming event that, at times, will be frustrating. But I think it's worth giving it a try for at least a week. I'm a pole vaulter myself and enjoy it; the only downside is that it eats up my free time to go running or lift weights.
By the way, what kind of track season is starting on monday? Indoor track is still going, and outdoor won't start for about a month at least.

Football training?
Try the pole vault. Try it as many events as your coach will permit. You don't know where your talents may lie unless you try. Women can be pole vaulters - check out Stacy Dragila, for instance. She's 5'7". Good luck.
