Interesting that she get's kicked off a public track while Antifa is allowed to destroy a police station and set up a quasi gov't in downtown Seattle. That Seattle gov't really has it's priorities in line.
Would have been fine if she was with a parent or other adult.
Although she is alone she said that the rest of the team was going to show up half way through her workout. They never did. She got kicked off the track so where did the rest of the team go?

Guys, you're not getting it. This is a promotional video for Allie O and for Brooks (see the final minutes). She's got to show some of her personality here. She's not really going to be complaining seriously about wind -- in Seattle -- when she was raised in Alaska and ran at Boise State... She's got to keep it lively, build a little tension. Can't just say "I ran my 20 x 400 meters and went home..." Got to add a bit of local color. Don't you see how the story builds? Does her workout, visits doctor and physiotherapist, then goes home and finds the elves have left her the very best (Brooks) shoes and running bras. Now is super happy as she shows them to us. All the wind was worth it.[/quote]
Just how much of her privileged whiny brattitude do you expect us to put up with?
The best young runners I know don't walk around with a selfie stick vocalising self obsession. They let their legs do the talking.[/quote]
How much do those runners make/year? Are there problems in T&F with salaries and/or sponsorship opportunities? Might she be pursuing the YouTube game to help supplement those things?
A couple of whiny men on LRC doesn't take away from her being a good running and having a following. She's just showing us her day to day. She isn't being preachy about it. People are here for it.

It wasn’t a public track and it wasn’t in Seattle.

Was it in a bad area that she was afraid to leave the track to do a cool down?
She suffers from the same affliction as Jackie Moon. She can't throw up:
Also, for those that think she is getting old, she looks younger than most high school girls I coach and feel her best potential may be in the marathon, so lots of years left to train and improve at longer distances.

Oh dear, wind

It's so hard trying to be a semi pro runner all of these things slow me down.
toughen up - you need to toughen up. I've never seen anybody so triggered by a simple video talking about running.

I don't whine about the wind. She makes a big thing about it. I use it to my advantage. I figured this out when I was even younger than she is.

It was not in a bad area, no.

Yet here you are, posting excessively on a thread about her, where no threads about you exist.

Don't let facts get in the way of his nonsensical rant!

She literally tagged "Albuquerque" in the video. Have you guys ever used the internet before?

Okay, is that track located in a bad part of "Albuquerque" that she was afraid to do a cool down away from the track?

I already told you it wasn’t in a bad area like 4 posts above?

Training for the marathon requires you to run more mileage. She has spent 85% of her time in the last 3 years in a pool/on a bike because she can't stay healthy. On what planet do you think her body can endure marathon training?

She was running 60+ MPW in HS.
What was she running at Boise St? Lots of training modalities to add aerobic work that is necessary for the marathon. Just listening to her in this video gives plenty of hints on how she could keep herself healthier and less stressed.
