Except for the facts that she will get lapped at the trials and won't hit the stabdard. But other than that, she would do fine in the Olympic 10k.
She has said multiple times on IG comments that she will do both (5k/10k). I'm pretty sure the runners who aren't sure if they'll make a team are doing both. Emily Sisson, for instance, is just doing the 10k because she's confident in that event. I guess she could have some sort of amazing day at trials but she's competing against Infeld and Hall (possibly Fraser) just on her own team, and that doesn't include Sisson and Huddle. I really think she has too much pride to quit running and masks that with saying 'she just loves it so much and Jerry told her not to give up'. She can't be making much money, and she will never get a gold in running in the olympics, so IDK what she is aiming for now other than making a team. She wasn't good at the marathon, so... yeah idk. Maybe she'll prove me wrong and make a team.
