Jordan Hasay is officially a flash in the pan

I hope she recovers well and gets plugged into a team again. Clearly a super talent. I don't know if the new setup is getting the best out of her.

Is this happening across all of her races or is it specific to climate (saw someone say she can't race in the cold)? Just a thought. Has she raced in say 20-25C weather?

I like Jordan. She seems genuinely nice and down to Earth. I hope she gets this figured out. I do get concerned that she is underweight and it is hurting her but I'm not a doctor or nutritionist. I think she needs to get into a group that will give her a different structure.

She's done. Too injury prone whatever the cause.

Didn’t the high school chick a few weeks ago run not much slower than Jordan can run?

Most inaccurate tagline ever,...

The first lets run post mentioning Hasay is from 16 years ago and after that 19580 posts found with "Jordan Hasay".

Now its 2020 and she is still headlining posts. Thats a pretty long "flash", better headline might be "washed up" but Jordan's been a feature discussion point probably longer than any female athlete in the history of lets run....

She litterally still holds the 13-14 year old USATF records in the 3000 and I think 1500m too from like 2004 and 2005, world youth silver 2007, JR world 4th in 2008, 2x footlocker champ, went to her first Olympic trials in HS, 2009 to 2012 4x AA ncaa XC, 3x NCAA podium, 2013 Worlds 12th at 10,000m, 2014 2nd at USAs 10,000m, 2017 is on the podium at two world marathon majors....

Jordan Hasay=Mary Cain= Britney Spears

Ever since Hasay burst into the major running scene (like with Mary Cain), people have been picking on every aspect of Hasay. This increased when Hasay chose to run with Salazar.

Then, people began to scrutinize her here on letsrun to the depth that Britney Spears received.

Let's make one thing clear....Jordan Hasay has done nothing to anyone. All she has been trying to do is make a running career.

She doesn't need this garbage treatment, especially from most of you, who as males, couldn't even run as well as she did.

I struggle to understand why people on letsrun must pick on Hasay.

If you have a problem with Alberto, wait until he is out of jail and then challenge him to a fight. You may or may not win...I don't care either way.

But please stop taking it out on Jordan Hasay.

You too, Rojo

I think she still holds usatf youth records. How is that a flash in a pan?

Not to mention her name may be mentioned on this DB more times than any runner in history.

Serious question, how did rojo take it out on her when he wrote "she is the opposite of a flash in the pan"

How are people taking it out on her? By stating she is running terribly? I’m willing to bet she’s one of the highest paid female athletes in the sport. If you don’t want people to criticize your running career, don’t become a professional runner.

Nobody is taking any personal shots at her. Just stating that she’s running terrible because she is. By stating it looks very obvious that she has an eating disorder, that is not a criticism of her either. I’d blame that on Alberto more than anyone else. It’s a fairly reasonable take on why her performance has been terrible as of late. I hope she figures that stuff on for her own health but if you’re a professional athlete, it’s completely fair to comment on. People criticize Tom Brady all the time. Chose a different career if you don’t want to be criticized

On the women's marathon: Peres Jepchirchir<-- Is Peres a traditional Kenyan name?

You just want attention, period. YOU aren't changing the way that LetsRun operates so check your ego in your parent's basement.

I don't like anything negative said about Jordan Hasay, but...I'm not dumb enough to think I'll stop the same dozen trolls who live on here day after day wasting their lives away. Why do you struggle to understand the obvious? They are trolls, period.

You bring up Alberto, then you give your opinion on what to do when he gets out of jail, then you say I don't care either way, but you do.

My suggestion, don't click on any threads about Jordan or Mary or Mrs. Spears.

Wrong.

You'll stay out of the battle and I'll dive right in.

I am not going to stop my comments against the maligning of people like Jordan Hasay, Mary Cain, Ryan Hall, Galen Rupp, Nick Symmonds, etc, etc.

As long as people pick on appearance, fat/thin, or other petty things, there I will be.

You forget that what brought me here was reading an article about AJ Acosta in the news after he competed in the Carlsbad 5000 against the superelites and seeing this headline over the internet "AJ Acosta is a substitute teacher" and saw the vile things people said about him. ..

After that, I read other threads and saw people tearing each other apart.

It's my mission to stop it, hence my handle "Stoppit Smith"

I'm not changing my approach, I will keep battling and you are not going to stop me.

Deal with it, or don't read me.

Are you even good enough to be entitled to provide that criticism?

What makes you qualified?

Don't say freedom. We all have the freedom to flap our yap.

I said qualified.

Out with it, bud. Tell me. What makes you qualified?

You also don't read properly.

I said I don't care either way what happens to the person with regard to Alberto.

That statement had nothing to do with Hasay

or we could look at it as salazar ruined her and mary cain minimally by doing too much too hard too soon and shortend their careers OR maybe they had some drugs or something that made them so elite and able to handle crazy workouts and now they don't. But, either way both with continuous injuries after leaving ect has to put some blame on him. Secondly, it seems she is trying to find fun in the sport again, not sure why jump rope and running down sand hills would be the answer but it seems to be the path she has chosen. Maybe she knows she will never ran a pr again?

Ha. Funny.

But you bring up an interesting point.

Harassment of Britney led to a major breakdown years ago, and it is happening again.

Letsrun won't stop until they do what Derek did to Frank.

Then, they will probably just laugh.

No one likes to talk about it but pretty much all pros have borderline eating disorders.

Um, can you read? I got it, you're a far left liberal and Rojo's father worked for President Bush or something and you still believe Hilary Clinton was the rightful President the past four years, but maybe it's time to give it a rest. Rojo just DEFENDED Hasay. Some people here may be too hard on her but most of us realize what an amazing and LONG career she has had. Follow the advice of your screenname and stop it.

Clearly not a good race for her but let me correct the record before I go to sleep. She is the opposite of flash in the pan. A flash in the pan would be a one hit wonder -she's had amazing success at the high school, college and pro levels.
