Women’s 1500m final

Props to her for going for it!

Yup went a little faster than I hoped 64/212 and not enough went with her to make them blow up. Howell tried and paid.

KATELYN MF TUOHY

Lol

The Ethiopian Born Athlete Ramsden Wins, The Ethiopians are becoming the best Women's 1500 Runners lately

That is basically what she split in the ACC dmr

She has run that pace before at WF and in DMRs. She hit the bell lap at 3:03, so it wasn't crazy fast. She just did not have it tonight. This was otherwise a winnable race and was not super fast. But it is hard to maintain that level all year. She may now be too spent for the 5000m.

KT just doesn’t look like the same runner as then. I hope she is ok.

Yeah that was not an unreasonable pace. The first 300m maybe a touch fast but 3:03 should be doable. She needs a break and Henes ... idk. None of the NCst women look great right now. Maybe Tyynismaa will be the exception

Yep 64 in the summer swelter, now 5000 even more interesting.

It's quite possible she can't run in heat. From upstate NY and training NC. And her body is a tad heftier too. I think TX weather did her in.

I’ve noticed that. WTF is going on at NC State right now? Time to think about transfer portal?

Tuohy didn't win a 1500 all season. Kinda delusional to think she was going to win NCAAs.

She got towed to a fast time at Wake Forest with professionals in the field, but this is championship racing and Tuohy simply doesn't have the speed for the 1500.

Unfortunately, that also means she doesn't have the speed to compete at the 5000 or 10000 at the professional level.

Her best bet is cash in on the NIL deal while it still seems like to many outsiders that she could be a world beater. Worst thing she could do is leave collegiate running behind early.

Hopefully she crushes the 5000 tonight. Seems like a good kid.

I thought she got tired at the end of last season. She peaked back in February/March. She got the 5000m record in May, but you could tell that she was wearing down ad she said her workouts were tough. I think the entire NCSt team is worn down. I appreciate they wanted to run a different race this time out, but they left a layup championship in the 5000m in jeopardy now. In retrospect her performance Thursday was indicative of this race tonight. She simply did not have the same level of fitness as she did when she was blasting those records in Indoor.

She won at Regionals. At WF she lost to pros.

Her records say otherwise. But in retrospect she did not have the same form all outdoor season. It has been a long season and there are only so many big performances before a college athlete can hit the wall or starts dealing with discomfort or what have you.

No US runner is a world beater in the 1500, 5000 or 10000. The records are rocket fueled. Does not mean she cannot be top three in the US.

Hard to say, I still think she’s training through this whole outdoor season with the focus this whole time being on USATF.

In the meantime, kudos to Ramsden for an amazing close and victory!
