Im very very impressed with Jordan Hasay!
This is very ignorant on your part.
She ran fantastic up to the point she was injured in 2015. She didnt have enough time to get in great shape by the trials . Once back in shape, she has been racing great on the roads, not just in the marathon.
Freshman year Edit
Hasay did not disappoint in her Oregon debut, taking sixth at the Bill Dellinger Invitational in 16:39.71 for a 5000m, where she was the top freshman in the race which helped her team to a second-place finish. She was the top Duck, and third overall, at the Pre-National Invitational, covering the 6000m LaVern Gibson Championship Course in 20:33. She had a strong performance at the Pac-10 Championships where she finished third, as the top freshman. She took second in the NCAA West Regional. She was the Ducks' top runner at the NCAA Cross Country Championships, where she placed 18th to claim her first All-American Award. She was awarded Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year.
She opened her indoor season by running the lead leg of Oregon's relay team at the Texas A&M Challenge. She came back next day to win the mile in 4:38.48. Two weeks later, she won the 3000m at the Husky Classic in a time that was fourth-all time at Oregon. She helped lead Oregon to its first-ever MPSF crown by winning the mile in 4:35.01. This time was an NCAA automatic qualifier and was .02 seconds shy of the school record. She was a key point scorer at her first NCAA Indoor Championships where she placed fourth in the mile and ran the anchor leg on the Ducks' runner-up DMR team. This led Oregon to win the Indoor title for the first time in school history. The DMR time at this meet (10:58.96) was a school record and only the second time Oregon women had run under 11:00.
Hasay's collegiate outdoor debut was a memorable one as she won the featured section of the 1500m at the Stanford Invitational in 4:14.67, which was less than a quarter of a second off her PR, as well as the junior national high school record, that she set at the 2008 Olympic Trials. In her Hayward Field debut as a Duck, she won the 5000m to help Oregon win the Pepsi Team Invitational. She led off Oregon's runner-up DMR team and anchored the third-place 4 × 1500 m squad at the Penn Relays. She was third in the 1500, the top collegian, at the Oregon Relays. At the Pac-10 Championships, she took third in the 1500m. She won her preliminary 1500m race at the NCAA West Regional to advance to the NCAA Championships. She took third in her heat to advance to the finals, where she produced one of the competition's biggest surprises.

She was ranked eighth nationally in the 1500m (4:14.67) as a freshman in college.
Following her collegiate season, she ran at the USATF Junior Track & Field Championships, where she won the 1500 meters (4:26.38) and was the runner-up in the 3000 meters (9:18.92). This qualified her for the IAAF World Junior Championships in both events. At Worlds, she placed ninth in the 3000m, opening the competition with a personal best. She was second in her preliminary 1500m heat, but she placed fourth in the final, just off a medal.

She earned her first collegiate cross country victory at the Bill Dellinger Invitational, edging out teammate Alex Kosinski to lead the Ducks to the team title.

She was selected as the USATFCCCA's National Indoor Track Scholar-Athlete of the Year.
