Hiltz goes home DEVASTATED! No medal

I disagree. Hiltz is always solid, a consistent top-6 runner, but they race like top-6 is the aim. I didn't at any point this year think they could medal. They've had so many opportunities to run something really fast but Hiltz is stuck on a 3:55 PB.

The next step for them is to take a big chance in one of these races. As long as Kipyegon and/or Tsegay are in these races, there's always going to be a break and you have to be prepared to go with it and hold on for dear life. It's been the path to medals for Laura Muir in 2021 and 2022 and now Jess Hull in 2024 and 2025. In the last five global finals, I can only really remember Georgia Bell managing to grab a medal in a kick - and she had to run 3:52 to get there! All the others have come from hanging onto the break by Kipyegon/Tsegay

Lol, look at this clunky, contrived way of speaking about her. Why are people still entertaining this 💩? 😂

There is a lot of respect/camaraderie in the W1500. They dont carry grudges after the race. Chepchirchir congratulated Hull and they left the incident on the track. Very different from the M1500, where athletes like Kerr, Jakob, and even the guys frequently in falls like Giles and Mills seem to have some real friction. Also it seems Kenyan athletes think about the team a bit more. So Chepchirchir takes solace in helping set up Ewoi for silver, and can expect her time to come.

So your brother engages in the HR department "they" speak while you dance around and just flat out avoids pronouns? Neither can say the word "she" like a normal human? Insane.

I agree. I previously said that she avoids the pain cave and I think that’s true. She needs to try once to race like Hull and see what happens. She may pleasantly surprise herself!

She won't ever go for it. She is a spoiled brat.

They won't ever go for it. They is a spoiled brat.

Which one of you guys made Chef so sad? Did failing in the Turkey Trot make the whole world gloomy? Hold on, Chef, somebody loves you.

Hiltz can identify as a microwave for all I care but it’s the commentators and newspapers trying not to mentioned the word woman even when talking about the name of the race drives me mad. (Like when she won the 1500 at trials). Just pretend that w before the 1500m doesn’t exist or Hiltz might take offense.

I am wondering why your username is referencing a candidate who is ineligible for running in 2028 american election due to already having won and served 2 terms. Is this some sort of bizarre trolling attempt from a Hiltz fan or someone within the Hiltz "camp" as they say (friends and family)?

Also disagree with the poster saying Hiltz avoids the pain cave, how would Hiltz have possibly run a 3:55 avoiding pain cave? Why would Hiltz want to go out too hard and blow up?

I know. At first I think the writer is talking about several athletes but then I remember it's just someone playing along with the silliness. 🤪

Her finished at world/olympics have been 12th - 11th - 7th and now 5th.

No reason for Nikki to be devastated, good progress and the best American.

I just saw Nikki's post race interview talking about their progression on flotrack. Claiming the consistency will allow them to continue to improve until the LA Olympics in 2028. They're turning 31 in a couple weeks. are we to actually believe that Nikki will not only improve, but not drastically drop off as they age? unless they are confident in their supplement and masking routine
