This guy is a friggin beast man. How sick would it be if he stole a spot. I mean American marathon running is weak enough to the point where it could actually be done lol. Go Abdi.
No there is zero chance of this happening. When I see sheer stupidity such as your post being upvoted I recognize that most of you are complete and utter morons.

People said the same in 2020.
I know the odds are against him, but I am rooting for him to make the team for two reasons, 1. he is amazing to be running at a high level for so long without breaking down and 2. the American mens marathoning is at an all time pathetic low.

I am a big fan of Abdi, but this is an incredibly deep Trials. There are something like 15 to 20 guys that have run under 2:10 since the 2020 trials.
In the time-recalibrated era of super shoes where it takes a 2:00:xx - 2:03:xx to win a major marathon and 40+ runners are finishing under that time in single races, calling the trials "deep" because 12 runners' qualifying time is under 2:10 is a misnomer.

Agreed. The dream team (i.e. a bunch of underdogs with heart that you could really get behind) would be Abdi, CJ, and some rando who never previously ran faster than 2:17.

The only way it would be 0% is if he wasn’t in the race. This is why you run the race. Are the odds good? Of course not. but it’s a marathon, a lot can happen. Couple guys have an off day and he makes a lucky move at the right time and the weather is junk….anything is possible, saying 0% is inaccurate.

Your post is incorrect. If you were in the race would you have a chance? People like you are obviously a bit slow in cognition. The answer is Abdi has zero chance. Abdi could make the women’s team (if he were a woman) but it would not be a given).
OK how about this: If Abdi makes the US team in the marathon for Paris, I pay you $10,000. If Abdi does not make the team, you pay me $500. Would you take that deal?

No because I don’t think he has a ~4.76% chance.
Of course he doesn’t. What chance would you give him of finishing top 3 for women if that were an option for him?
