What's with calling the former NCAA 3x champ in the event a "former NCAA top 10er"?
Oh, so sorry! I guess I must have misremembered her as being in college around the same time as Emma Coburn.
Having always won as Coburn did, I guess she must have moved on to win gold medals at the elite level and approach sub 9.
You said something incorrect, you got called on it, and the path you chose was mental gymnastics? Poorly executed mental gymnastics at that. Like 3/10, definitely did not stick the landing.
You know one in life will take you seriously when you can't admit an obvious mistake. Just another goofus to write off as a hopeless case of rage addiction winning out over common sense.
5 Americans have run 9:10 this year. 7 have run faster than her lifetime PR. I give the same chance of making the steeple team as Drew Hunter making the 1500 team.
I was surprised at how poor her hurdle skills are. She stutters to most of the barriers and can't get out of the water with one foot so has to re-accelate each water jump. If she were good with this she might chop two seconds per lap.
I agree with this, she was better at running in College. No mis-cues then just titles 3 of them.
Half a thread debating an obvious typo. Good stuff. Doesn’t change the fact that Allie O will be lucky to make the final and a non factor even if she does.
Typos are repeated consistently - you’re an idiot, just admit it so we all move on.
At Stumptown Twilight. Only a 3 woman field and Allie was essentially solo from the gun and still ran the fastest season opener of her life by over 2 seconds (9:35.11). Looking good to get back into the 9:20s again!
Doesn't bode well for her making team. The fast girls ate all 9:10s. I was hoping for a better turn out from her.
I thought she was clumsy with all the water jumps, she was slow on all but the last lap. she can be better with the laps but where can she practice water jumps
Yes. Her water jumps looked painful. And she was alone. Could be dangerous in a pack.
Well Allie's latest youtube video is up rehashing her race. Spencer wasn't there so her Dad was her videographer. Is it me but I find both her mother and father so silly and annoying. Allie's personality is endearing but not so much in the 50 and over crowd. They seem to enjoy their 15 minutes of fame a we bit too much.
