This sport is magical and brutal at the same time. Left it all out there the last night. Excited for 10k women and gonna be back for the 5k to hope to join them to take on the world ❤️💙 pic.twitter.com/cTTVpAKhLK
It’s even more impressive after going what she did after the 2012 Trials where Shalane Flanagan slowed the race down to wait for Lisa Uhl to tie her shoe to catch back up and b/c of that Natosha missed the world standard by seconds. On top of that, got a nearly career ending knee injury, went to work full time in the corporate world, dropped by New Balance. Those are usually the signs to hang it up but the girl finally got it done.
Shalane has spent her running career in many unethical positions . This above, and having
amy fetch her water bottles during 2016 marathon trials .
LOL, you claim she's spent her running "career" in many unethical positions...yet you name 2 that aren't even unethical. Shalane can run a 10,000 as slow or fast as she wants. Nobody made anyone in that 10,000 slow down unless they wanted to.
Amy fetch her water bottle?? Yeah, like that's never happened before.
I like Rodgers and the Hansons and am happy for her. Just slow your roll, fantwits, she was 3rd. Nice domestic runner but don’t get carried away. Hope she runs out of her head at Worlds, regardless of the silliness on this thread. Now go buy your Hansons gear on Running Warehouse to act like you were in her corner all this time.
You need help dude. Slow your roll? Someone starts a thread congratulating her and they can't do that without you chiming in with negativity?
No one claimed they were buying anything on RW and they aren't fantwits, but you may be one. They are happy for her to make it to Worlds and are congratulating her and Kevin/Keith.
Sounds like you've got an ax to grind. Former runner kicked off the team? Not good enough to make it?
I like Emily. She made the right decision to leave BTC. Hopefully, both she and Natosha can stay healthy the next few years and continue to compete at a high level.
