 Where Your Dreams Become Reality |

You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Midas Subject: RE: DIII Indoor Track and Field 2011 Body: I get what you're saying here, but why would an athlete drop out of possibly the last national championship he or she will compete in? There's no guarantee that anyone, Scheetz for example because he's taking some flak, will be any healthier during outdoor. Track is unpredictable. One minute you're on top of the world and the next you have a torn meniscus or strep. If you qualify you have every right to go: hurt, sick or whatever else. If you're willing to race when you know your condition isn't 100% it's brave, not pathetic. True competitors qualify and race, that's what they do. If you missed it by a spot and, in watching from your cozy living room decided, "oh! If only I had gotten in I could have won it!", think again. If you'd earned your spot in the first place you'd be there proving it. Unless you've stepped on the line at nationals knowing full well that you could be limping off the track, mortified and in incredible pain in only a few minutes, you really have nothing to back up your post but conjecture.
