At the Olympic Trials, I saw Hightower with her arm around Hasay. What was that all about?

You people are at the wrong place. Letsrun HATES Hightower. She represents everything that is wrong with the USATF.
Go away.
I hate her. Please tell me how to vote so I can vote for anybody but Hightower! She's an idiot and doesn't know or care anything about distance runners!

Courting the youth athletics vote. Who makes up the largest percentage of USATF registered athletes?
You have got to be kidding me! I cannot think of a WORSE choice! My opinion is that she is clueless all the way down to her own event. This would be a huge mistake to anyone who cares about anything longer than 400-meters and field events!
My two cents.
Which former distance stars were in the Nike tent at the Trials with whom she decline to socialize? I'm eager to hear your inside perspective, especially given that you seemed ignorant to her engagement with distance legend Ian Stewart.
I'm forming another voting bloc, "White Peckers for Stephanie Hightower." I need co-chairs, who's up for it?
Isn't Dexter McCloud the guy who was involved as the "athlete rep" in the case where the runner got bumped out of the Olympic Trials in favor of Adam Goucher?
That guy is one of John Chaplin's cronies!
Show your ass up in Reno and be a voting member at the USATF convention in December.
If you don't and she gets elected, you've no one to blame but yourself, and you have no right to bitch about the outcome.
This 4th of july was a great day for Jordan and all her fans.
Without Stephanie hightower's intervention, Jordan couldn't have run the semi and the final races at the olympic trials.
So, I want to thank her so much for what she had done.
Here's the deal on Dexter from the Trials:
Before deciding whether to support Stephanie, please review some serious accusations lodged against her and other board members:
One more on Dexter:
She is a guarantee 100% lock for the President position. Why? Because distance runners bitch and then do nothing about it. Sprinters will be in Reno in full force. There will not be more than 5 elite distance runners in attendance. I have seen it before. Just like the "Goucher 10k scandal". Not one athlete was willing to stand up in arbitration and complain in public. I will be back in December to say I TOLD YOU SO.
“Those clowns in the bottom half of the 10,000 have no chance on God’s green earth of making the Olympic team.”
“I have no patience with distance runners any more.”
"Stephanie Hightower WILL BE the next president of USA Track & Field, and you can take that to the bank!"

It is sad but you are right.
We're doomed
