It really is unfortunate how badly she's underperforming given the time and resources she has dedicated to professional running and the incredible promise she had shown up until not too long ago. She should still be proud of her many amazing accomplishments. I hope she can somehow bounce back but it doesn't look good right now.

Bjorn Borg was done at 25-26 . He was burnt out with a coke problem. If you google him he still is trying to keep his old 18 y old hair style , though white hair, with a big bald spot. He looks like that crazy scientist from Back to the Future .
How can you compare Borg with a coke problem with Jordan who doesn't have a coke problem? Borg has white hair, Jordan has bleached blonde hair. Borg has a big bald spot, Jordan has luxurious hair. Borg looks like that crazy scientist, Jordan is a cuite pie.

There has to be some serious hormone disruption going on here. For someone that previously ran 2:20, you don’t decline that much unless there’s some medical issues at play. I think when she ran phenomenal, she was riding an edge that pretty much cost her the rest of her career.
Eerily similar to what happened to Mary Decker Tabb Slaney between ‘84 and ‘96.

Who got busted for doping while coached by Salazar although I think he disputes coaching her at that time..
I agree Hasay was just as likely to be doping as Houlihan. Some people on these boards just can't accept that Americans are dirty too. Not just Russians and Kenyans.

Maybe she was pacing that local runner and decided to kick it in at the end. The local runner could not keep up.
Right. Jordan started the first 4.4 miles at 1:16 pace. She ran a 2:33 marathon in Valencia at the end of 2020. .. but her time here was more in line with the 2:41 she ran in Boston last fall.
She had a great few years. But as many people are saying here, something is very wrong. Hope she figures it out and can get herself back to sub-2:30 shape.

Wow, this is getting sad. Went from America's most promising marathoner to slower than me. And I am most definitely a nobody. She is most likely just running out whatever contract she has. Probably time to start thinking about a life after competitive running.

Dr. Brown kicks back, cackling and rollin’ blunts.

Maybe it's the hamstring. Thats can be a tough injury that takes years to come back from. I think she'll be back. She has the talent.

Courtney Cox said she stopped running at age 25 because of hip problems and also a coke addiction . I did not know they throw out old skin from cosmetic surgery.

wow, this is too bad, she clearly has a major medical issue. There is no way someone declines this fast, going from a 5:20 PACE IN A MARATHON to 6:00 pace in a HALF MARATHON, regardless of what she was doing under Al Sal. She clearly had the ability out of college to run mid 2:20s ...2:25-2:26 but 6mpm now in the 1/2, that is not the result for a professional runner training full time. I am perplexed.

I don't know why people won't just admit she was doping under Salazar. She was a pretty good collegiate runner- nothing out of this world. He "transformed" her into one of the best American marathoners of all time. Without him she is just a good local elite. It's so obvious. I know it sucks because she seems sensitive and looks like child but it's glaringly obvious.
I don't disagree with this very real possibility. Jordan was one of his most trusted athletes. If we are to believe Galen was and Mo was, then why shouldn't we believe Jordan was too?

Big lead up on instagram, shout outs to sponsors, fearless crouching tiger-hidden dragon type quotes but with a semi-hidden statement in there about a nagging injury for an exit strategy outlet / plugin.
At 9 miles she will get left in the dust and DNF.
Post-race interviews:
"Leading up to the race I had an injury and it wasn't my day. I am still young when it comes to the marathon. I'll be gearing up for a 2024 buildup from here on out." Followed by insta posts.
haha ended up being true, just waiting for the stupid post race post.
