Official Day 2 2015 USATF Indoors Live Discussion Thread

Did Rowbury break the AR? What was her time? I did not see the offical times.

What was that patch under Rowburys sportsbra? Is alsal into the caffeine patches yet?

I do not know. I thought I saw the same thing on the girl who won the 1,000m.

Maybe it's birth control. Who's she bangin?

At least don't make crap up.Centro wasn't sick last week, he had a bad race and didn't adjust to time change.It seems pretty reasonable that a flu virus could work its way through the athletes that train together. Almost the entire crew where I work got taken out by a virus a few weeks ago and we don't even interact a ton. (Software devs).The season is so short that if you get hit with the flu you are pretty much done. Makes sense they would bag it, rest and start up for the outdoor season.That all said I was bummed to not see them race this season.

This season will be known as the "Great NOP Plague of 2015," what is this, the 5th runner to be a little 'sick' recently? Not 100%? Rupp, Cain, Rowbury, Centro last week, I feel like everyone has the excuse of being deathly ill this season. Oregon is like one of the best off states in terms of winter weather this year.

No such thing. Incredible race and well-deserved win.

All the money NOP has and these athletes cant stay healthy???? Maybe their immune syytem is weak because they train too hard or maybe they come in contact with a lot of germs being on airplanes all the time or both????

Makes no sense to me, but those airplanes are germ factories for sure.

why didn't the woman who spiked wilson get DQ'd?

Because accidentally stepping on someone who falls down in front of you is not a disqualifiable offense.

I feel bad for Ajee Wilson. She gets clipped, (her foot was full contact on the woman's shin behind her) kicks her own leg, doesn't just faceplant, she faceplants INTO THE RAIL, and then gets stepped on for good measure. Ouch. Wouldn't be surprised if she gets a black eye from the way she fell.

watch that w 1000 if you have a chance - amazing race.

spoiler alert:

the winner passes 5 women on the last lap. That's what makes champ running so crazy - around 3 small miracles had to happen for the winner to win, and each did. fun race.

One of those lane one "out of the pack" wins that come along once in a while. Wallace took a shrewd gamble that they would all wide out lane two off that last turn (Shannon mentioned that even at mile pace it was hard to stay inside coming off the bank)
