Emma Coburn Last Place.

Chill out. She had an off day. Ever happen to you?

relax, its the first race of the season

When's the last time she had a good day? At this point she's just diminishing her legacy

People just love to pile on. Makes them feel stronger I guess.

We call that the Des Linden Syndrome

I think she should go to the longer roads stuff. She still enjoys running and pushing herself, that's obvious in her training. Her aerobic base has to be top notch coming from Wetmore/ Bosshard background. She could do some amazing stuff in 10k -half- and full marathon. Would love to see it. I just think this faster stuff isn't suiting her anymore. She still has wheels but it could even be just time for a change mentally/physically. Sara Vaughn did the same thing it and boded very well for her.

Did she come out of the race Ok, was her injury giving her issues

When you are a clean athlete time catches up to you. At 34, she’s suffered more than her fair share of injuries and lost a notch in her speed.

she’s done tons with the time that’s given to her and set the bar high.

Uhm, ok. My thought: always first in our hearts?

Bro SHE JUST BECAME A MOTHER /s

She's not drugged.

It's that simple.

Yeah, it’s unfortunate. She’s been a great runner to cheer for.

Hopefully she keeps building and has a couple good seasons left in her

But she looked hot

Didn't work so well for Jenny Simpson.

Yeah, picking one up from the store is hard on the body.

Time catches up to everyone, honey, sooner or later.

If this was Kipchoge she would have another 10 years.

Ha what? In 2023, Linden ran 2:27 at Boston and then set the masters marathon record in Chicago. In 2024, as a masters runner, she placed 11th at the US marathon trials and 11th at NYC. Diminishing her legacy? Terrible take
