Richardson was doing so well. Running great, clocking fast times, and just winning.
I give her credit. And shes a national champion…..but, watching the final, I had a feeling of deja vu
She starts getting closer and closer to the title, and BOOM!….. wig comes off, wins the race, looks like shes ready to murder someone as she crosses the finish line, ignores all competitors after the win, goes into stands, gives embarrassing interview, which she ends by running off towards clubhouse.
Minus the wig incident, it was almost identical to her win a few years back, after which, the wheels started to come off.
I know she had a tough start in life, and she deserves credit for taking her talent and being a success with it. But theres no question she has some serious issues going on upstairs. I mean, she is 21 ? years old and is barely able to communicate in a post race interview!
By the way, the more she got jacked up, the worse she ran. She didnt really have a terrible start, but her time wasnt nearly as good and that was the closest race shes had. Is she really mentally prepared to deal with Budapest?
I could be way off, but even though she is the champion, it felt like a regression; or maybe she never really changed and just kept it under wraps?
And now we have the 200 starting up today!
What will her energy level be? It will be very interesting to see how she runs in that event.
