We have merged two threads into 1 as we like to have 1 thread per topic. We don't need a thread on how she's running the 10,000 and then another on how she did. Here is a video of her on the final lap:
My guess is this will be amazingly slow. State has Quarzo and Howlett and Vestri has Roark etc, but no one really has incentive to make this fast. Tuohy can just cruise behind leader and win from 600 out. Good first experience for kt at 10k on track. 25 laps on track is often a mental challenge. I guess 33:xx for the win.
NC st has 9 in the 5k, including Bush, Chmiel and Hays fresh. No Starliper?
Katelyn will not be running the 5k. She will be pacing her teammates in the 10k. I'm assuming she will go for the win after her pacing duties, but we'll have to see how the race plays out. Marlee is done, due to injury again.

Thanks Tuffy! Always good to hear from you!
Tuffy, well done! You are saying KT will be pacing her teammates in the 10K but after pacing she might just go for the win. Win/win situation for her thanks to you. She is a great teammate if she falters and if she is able to win she is DYNOMITE! She can't lose.
I thought if she wasn't running in the 1500m given the short turn around from soundrunning she would just run 5000m on saturday. She talked about focusing on the 1500m. I guess it is a way to get some miles in.
Looks like she is doing 10k & 5k at ACCs. Maybe this means she is doing 10k / 5k at nationals now and scrapping the 1500m.
I was hoping she would focus on the 1500 like she has been talking about. I wonder what spurred the change.
In the interview with Citius post 5k, they were talking that she needs to run pretty fast last 1600m of a 5k to potentially make the team. This is prefect for her to practice, where she can sit and then blast (progressively) last 1600m to see how fast she can close it.
Let just be honest NC State has plenty of people who can score high in the 10k. Tuohy turned down the 1500m because she was scared to lose in the ACC’s. She could’ve helped team score in an event they wouldn’t score.

It's possible Appleton could beat her but I seriously doubt fear is the reason Tuohy isn't running the 1500m this week. If she does the 1500m at regionals and NCAAs they will be racing soon enough..

Let’s be honest. The decision on what event(s) KT runs is not her decision to make. She does have a coach, no?
Do you think the conversation went something like this?
KT: Coach Henes, I’m really scared that I’m going to lose the 1500 in the conference championship. Can I PLEASE run the 10 instead?
Coach Henes: Sure, Katelyn, you can do whatever you want to.
So you are predicting her to run about 4 minutes slower than the world record. And some of you guys are suggesting she will soon dominate on the professional circuit? LOL.
I don’t believe that anyone said she is going to “dominate on the professional circuit.”
But you do you and keep that hate thing going on that you have down so well.
I would have preferred that she run the 800m at conference. Develop her speed reserve for 1500m. that is what she lacks. The 10000m, other than a tempo run, makes no sense to me, at least for her anyway.
Have you ever had discussions with fans of other sports such as football, basketball, baseball, soccer, etc? Those fans tend to have Athlete favorites they talk about specifically. How many points they think they can score, etc.
No different here. What’s with needing to resort to name calling?
