She said in David Monti's article that she is trying for 15:09 USATF qualifier. She did not say anything about chasing the record.
I think they are just being smart by having a more modest goal. This would get her in the USATF meet, but she would still at some point have to run the world standard in case she actually made the team. Here's some other useful goals.

Keep stacking the chips against her biatch, grab your popcorn and enjoy!💪🤘
The pace will be slow early on (as usual) and she will clock a 15:19 and the KT fans willl say it was a "rust-buster." LOL.
There is NO way the pace will be slow early on. The entire setup of this event is for it to be a time trial. Back on April 13th, I posted the following:
“Well, with Henes’ PR being 14:52, 14:50 is certainly within reach, without a doubt. With the professional racers, pacers and pacing lights it’s gonna be a blazing fast race.
Possible predictors for Tuohy based on t2 = t1 * (d2 / d1)1.06 (the Riegel formula) are:
14:31 under absolute perfect conditions (based on her 4:24 Mile NCAA record)
14:45 under absolute perfect conditions (based on her 8:35 3000m NCAA record)
She very well could win this race. I believe she’ll be top 3. I believe she’s going to run this psychologically as if it is the USATF National Championship, to completely practice exactly what she’s wanting to accomplish this summer. Nothing will be good enough for this race for her personally; based on her goals she’s shared in interviews, except top-3 and a World Championship qualifier. Just as if it were USATF Nationals.
I believe she will run with the front pack until 1 mile to go. Regardless of placement at that time. Then she’ll test her final mile ability (which is exactly what she’s specifically been working on).
I agree with FastTuohy that they’ll most likely go through 3000 in no slower than 9:00 (exactly 15:00 pace, or 4:49 to 4:50 mile pace). She’ll close in as close to 4:30 for the final mile that she can (based on what she’s stated her goal is to do this exact final mile speed as her goal), and run:
14:40.0
Obliterating the former NCAA record by over 27 seconds. EPIC”

The race that can give us real insight into the race for the US team for Budapest is a very interesting looking women's 5000m:Katelyn Tuohy, Emily Infeld, Josette Andrews, Whittni Orton-Morgan, Elly Henes, Allie Buchalski, wi...
