I keep talking about having a runnable rack. Tonight I went back over to the garage apartment to see if the new light bulbs would make things better and brighter. Was a small improvement. Anyway, I broke about a dozen racks and never had a chance. Then finally I got this spread and ran out. This diagram is what I am talking about - a runnable rack. I finally got one and I got out!

How’s you go from the 4 to the 5?

Had the right angle on the 4B so I went straight up table for the 5B. Got the angle I wanted on the 5B and then to the 6B was easy.
If those are what you're looking for set 'em up as drills.
More beneficial; throw 15 out and shoot 'em in rotation.
Work the short rack breaks separately.

Running racks is fun and great for the ego and you gotta love it when you run out, but choosing the right shot and knowing what it is, is more important.
With the new 9ball break rules (9 on the spot and the option of a box) in many cases, running out is not an option, so not running out should not bring you down.
Playing a strong safe and getting a ball in hand and running out from there is just as skillful if not more.
