No way is Addy in the top 3. She’ll be over 100 yds behind them.
"Yards"? Who uses yards anymore when talking about a track race?
In any case, Jane Hedengren will probably win by such a large amount that Addy Ritzenhein could be "100 yards" behind and still finish in the top 3.
Who cares what term is used. Is that all you got out of the comment? Addy will be lucky to be anywhere near the top 3. And just so you don’t get so triggered- she will be 100 METERs behind
What happened to blade at cif finals yesterday? Got second in 10:20-something, not close to first
That’s odd. I’d say she’s training through CIF but she’s a pretty fierce competitor.
I just watched some of the race. Blade led thru 400 at around 73, but by 800 Barker had passed her and was about 2:31. By 1200 Barker was 3:47 and there was a sizeable gap that just continued to grow. After finishing Blade looked pretty tired. I did not watch from 1200 to 2800 or so.

You're confused. Whether or not Addy Ritzenhein is 100 meters behind Jane Hedengren has no bearing on whether or not Addy Ritzenhein can finish in the top 3.
Sadie Engelhardt has been injured. Rylee Blade is inconsistent. And none of the other girls in the Brooks PR 2 mile have ever run a sub 10 2 mile. So Addy Ritzenhein has a good chance to finish in the top 3.

I see Colorado woke up to join the thread and get their panties in a knot
dont sleep on the Garmers. have two sisters ever gone sub 10 in the same HS race?
I don't see the Garmers entered. Big difference racing high stakes races.
Yes they are on there. if you are basing it on the list in the first post then you are working from a list thats over 2 weeks old at this point. Brooks has always invited kids based on break through performances over the course of the season. they want the "fastest of the fast" after all. they are constantly updating the invited list and both Garmers recently had huge PRs (10:01 and 10:05). of course they are not going to be in contention to win or likely even get a whiff of the top three in this GOAT field but its a great opportunity to go sub 10 while half a dozen historically fast girls pull you along.
By the way, theyve now added freshman Natasza Dudek after she ran 10:03 (also a massive PR) recently.
These are some ambitious predictions not really supported by recent times. Outside the top two Hanne Thomsen and Chloe Huyler have had the best recent times.
You keep mentioning these recent times, who is it that you like based on recent times?
Most of us go based on talent and health. Many of the top girls don't being their A game in every track race. If you can win State in 10:10, why run 9:40? Save that for a national meet.
My first thought seeing this was “9:23? Cmon that’s ludicrous.” Then did some math and yeah, you may be right. She will likely be in better shape than when she ran her 14:57.
I think 9:27 is her ceiling but wouldn’t be surprised if she goes faster.

Exactly. Sadie broke 10:00 over a year ago, Addy got beat at Penn, rylee's last two races didn't break 10:00. Those predictions are aggressive and not supported by recent times.

Jane's coach thinks she can run faster than 9:23. We shall see.
Blade and Englehardt could likely handle Utah Jane's 4:43-45 first mile but Jane is way stronger than them. They all seem to be friends and that's a sweet sub-story.
