I can't believe she was shocked and didn't know what to do like she didn't know that a NM means you're out.
It depends upon what you mean by "out." Out of any chance to medal? Yes. Out of the competition and unable to continue? No. The only way you are eliminated is if you fail to make an attempt in a throw/jump event or fail to start a running event.
She should absolutely continue. I think it would be good for her mindset right now. The pressure is off. Just go out and do your best in the shot and 200 today and see how it goes. It is the Olympics - I think someday she will regret not continuing if she chooses to do so.

She could always be deployed to play the team game and accidentally drift into KJTs lane and take out her knee, or an errant shot a maybe in the direction of Thiam.
Hopefully now these boards will stop kissing Rinaldi’s butt he is a bang average coach.
If your athlete is juicing without your knowledge, and your athlete is Sudanese and you have no prior experience of coaching someone from East Africa, then it might be difficult to know that they’re on the juice.
That is, you might confuse your assumption of what “natural” East African talent should look like for the effects of juicing.
There is evidence that Bol was flying solo.
In an appeal against an EPO doping charge against Vuskovic, the hearing heard how Australian anti-doping officials, who seized Bol's phone and computer, found a screenshot on the phone about how to micro-dose EPO and get away without detection, from Victor Conte, a former distributor of performance-enhancing drugs.
"There was a screenshot found on Mr Bol's phone which was an article which included a letter from Victor Conte to [former UK Sprinter] Dwain Chambers discussing micro-dosing with EPO in the off-season and there was also discussion [of] various techniques to game the whereabouts system, putting in inaccurate information, making sure your voicemail was full," WADA's general counsel Ross Wenzel said.
The whereabouts system requires athletes to report where they can be located for out-of-competition drug testing.
"This is an article about using EPO, how to use it in the off-season and the screenshot was opened on Mr Bol's phone on the 6th of September 2022, a month and five days before a sample initially categorised as positive was collected on the 11th of October 2022," Wenzel said.
Michelle Jenneke 13.86 in the repechage; ouch. That fall must have taken something out of her as she frankly looked sluggish. Too bad; at 31 that's got to be the last dance for her.
Australian hurdler Michelle Jenneke has revealed she contested the repechage round of the women's 100m hurdles at the Olympic Games on Thursday night (AEST) with a ruptured hamstring.

There’s only four days left of the 2024 Paris Olympics, although a multitude of sports are still in action. Thursday’s schedule is first headlined by the men’s speed climbing final, which is making its first appearance at the...

Gold went out the window for Anna Hall when she crapped the bed in the 100 hurdles. She needed to have the best time in the field in that event and wasn’t anywhere close.

Regardless of whether it’s racist, scientists just don’t know much about the genetics of sports performance. Very few polymorphisms have reproducible associations with fitness, strength, etc. We know too little to make such speculations worthwhile.

Wow ESP's family really does look like they're straight out of a trailer park. It's odd you usually see athletes coming from a family of athletes w/athletic spouse, friends etc. in the stands. She looks like the one progressive in a family of deplorables lmao.

I read the article and the official diagnosis. I seriously doubt she had a ruptured hamstring. As someone that has ruptured their semitendinosus, it is very hard to walk without a limp much less warmup, run and hurdle. Drama queen, much?
