I love that she loves running enough to keep racing. At this point, kind of seems like her body has gone into the same mode salazar's did towards the end.

I ran against Salazar in 1991 in a Midwestern 10K. Like, we line up, and Salazar is there. Hadn't seen him in what, six or seven years? And this is some podunk race with maybe 500 participants?
I was out spectating the race this morning when I see the top women go by. Leading was my fellow club member (and a stud) Jen Bigham, and I was surprised to see a fatigued Jordan Hasay hanging on to her.
What is Jordan doing flying to Pittsburgh to run a slow time on a fast course? She comes to the half, so maybe she likes the city? 😂
Language evolves. Sometimes, that occurs as a race to the bottom (some might say that happens, uh, everyday). In other cases, it's a reasonable alteration for exigent circumstances, as for one hoping to describe a badass effort, achievement, etc. in a gender-neutral way -- here, to describe a badass local runner.
Or would you prefer "studette," my troglodyte friend?
Oh, and also: Good for J. Hasay on the day. I don't know a thing about her recent training and goals, but this looks solid (5K/10K pairing), especially in light of her recent struggles. No, it's not pre-2020 JH, but time will tell whether she's on her way back to that.
One more thing on Hasay: She has a host of top-notch performances while living her life inf the fishbowl, and in spite of any missteps she's battled like a warrior time and time again. Respect, respect, respect.

Did others recognize him? Did you get to talk to him after?
I love the Lopes story. He inspires me to not give up. Every runner will have setbacks and injuries; the key is to bounce back from them.

Congrats to Jen for the win!
This is like when Hocker ran almost 14 the other day and people were like relax it's a rust buster. I remember when people here thought he was relevant.
