As awkward as her form was, I’m glad Annie Rodendels was in the race to make the pace fast. If it went slower, I bet Gabbi Jennings would’ve made the team (as she can close well), only to get eliminated in the Olympic heats when the facing world class talent. These 3 proved they can handle a faster pace.
I get how sometimes silence is appropriate but there was just a lack of appreciation of how big of a race that was for those women.
Marisa Howard just ran a 15-second PB at age 31 to make the God damn Olympic team.
Constien ran a 11+ second pb to win the trials in a trials record!
Kara should be going ga-ga over, getting pumped, excited so the fans realize it.
IN 2028, I want Coburn or Centro or a tag team of the two as the color for distance. Pay me enough and maybe I"ll be the stat boy. Like who is doing the stats for them to tell them how amazing that was?

Dude, YOU and your idiot takes need to go (not to mention your idiot troll threads). You're already incomprehensible on your podcast, how about you stop posting your "analysis" on the forums too?

Looks like Markezich hyperextended her knee on the last water jump
Looks like she ran outta gas and slammed into the wall. Went for it but just didn’t have enough to make it happen.
I think she got seriously injured on the water jump. Knee then gave out trying to land on the next barrier. Even if she was too 3, I think she would probably be out for Paris.
Another PR from Allie O — first race of the season she was 11 seconds off her PR from her first act, now she’s 5 seconds faster than she ever was. Hope she keeps going, shes still relatively young
That is what she did when she started. I’m pretty sure somewhere along the line she was told to talk less.
Yeah, Kara used to be much more excitable (and a lot of you complained about that) and now she's more monotone and careful. i.e, professional, I guess, but not as fun as "WOODY GOES BLACKOUT CRAZY!"
Alright, Lyles brought out Exodia's arms for the heats. Legs for the semis, I assume. Finals - bring back all five? Move on to the gods? I'm thinking he brings out Obelisk the Tormentor
She clipped her toe on the water jump and stumbled, and then goes down after the next hurdle. I think she was just totally gassed and couldn't maintain her coordination. SUCH a bummer.
Definitely. In hindsight, she may have benefited from being a little more patient in the last 800. Also, if she’d been content with 4th place in a huge 9:08 PB she probably could’ve stayed on her feet, but obviously that wasn’t gonna happen. She still ran a 3 second PB even with a 25 second last 100m, so it figures she was gassed.
This was a great race for American women’s steeple. Big PRs for both the vets and the recent collegians Mitchell, Markezich and Halladay. In a sorta funny way you have to tip your cap to Rodenfels, who went out way too fast (3:00), looked ridiculous at every barrier and still ran a PB/Olympic standard.
