Katelyn Tuohy continues to IMPROVE!

im a college student and katelyn inspires me to do well, just as how she inspires many more young people but this old dude just does not stop hating on her, i wish i could block him and prevent him from commenting on my threads

thank you for the support too! im nervous and so excited for the prelims!

wishing katelyn a good time in her first ncaa regionals ~

First, you need to chill out! You do not come off as a fan of Tuohy but flat out worship of her like she is Jesus Christ walking on water. News, she is not divine! I’m just keeping it real. I’m not a hater......actually I do cheer for her because I’m a Wolfpack fan. Besides commenting on her successful college year in this thread, and acknowledging that she was the greatest high school Cross country runner ( even defending her when people were saying Jenna Hutchins is the best now because her time was faster than Tuohy’s old record.....and I stated that Tuohy would have run faster on that flat course she ran) on another thread, and just today on a thread about predicting CC NCAA for this fall I predict NC State will win, and one of those reasons is because of Tuohy! So don’t get all pissed off when I keep it real.

Which leads me to my second and final point because I’m not a hater at all when it comes to her. I actually feel really sad and sorry for her because of over the top fans like you who add to HER UNWANTED PRESSURE!!!! If you knew and cared about her at all, you would back off a little. This poor girl almost lost Nike because of the very pressure and expectations that fans like you bring on her. If you knew her you would know she does not like all this attention and worship of her. But don’t falsely accuse me of being a hater, when your very threads and comments put her in a bad and awkward situation in the running world. Just be careful and mindful.

my top 12

this is my final result list if katelyn has a bad day

1 maudie skyring

2 lauren berman

3 amaris tyynisma

4 sarah edwards

5 petronela simiuc

6 kelsey harris

7 lottle black

8 danae rivers

9 presley weems

10 katelyn tuohy

11 sarah anderson

12 bailey hertenstein

kaley richards and ellie leather could also make it

this list is based on how they run 800 and their current 1500m

now if katelyn is conditioned and on her A game

she's expected to run 4:10 or 4:12 given the heat temperature

and if skyring will push, katelyn might pull a faster time and might place top 3 on her best day

we never really know until the race on, all we can do is speculate

which is fun too hehe~ what are your top 12 finishers in the 1500?

Do you think your negative comments saying that shes going to be smoked or something like "other runner is better" "..." is the best runner on the team" "she sould do this and that" "she will get outkicked" ... does not add pressure to her!??? if ever she sees it?

on every thread discussing katelyn, you are always there adding negative outcomes

while me as a fan just makes tuohy threads discussing her progress (calmly and respectfully as a fan, and hopeful for her future races and happy for her improvements)

positive and negative comments, facts or assumptions still adds pressure to a person

its funny how you say i worship her when i only interact mostly on my threads

and not on other kt threads like you who is everywhere whenever katelyn is mentioned

ah the irony...

also, its not hard to see that youre a fan of starliper and thorvaldson

based on your comments on this site, i can pretty much see it all dude

maybe you havent realized it yet but im one of her fanpages and old people like you dont get that, i have been in this site for 2 months and when will you accept the fact that im her fan and will continue to update fellow katelyn fans.. youtube channel has already 300+ subs.. feel free to subscribe

my threads are updates on her progression and improvements,

katelyn fans here has been very kind and happy to watch her progress

the ones putting pressure are people like you who loves to compare and criticize anything about katelyn and throws assumptions left and right

ive read katelyn fans' post and we are only talking about her improvements and achievements which is natural because we are fans and you will do the same to your idols

the bottomline here is, YOU DO NOT LIKE KATELYN TUOHY

and whatever she does or we, her fans do.. i know it will unconciously bother you.

Hahaha you only stood up and picked tuohy over jenna hutchins because jenna hutchins beat your idol thorvaldson

This should be Katelyn Tuohy strategy

She's got to grab the rail, and get in anywhere from 3rd to 5th Place or even third to 7th place

Then just stay on the rail for the whole race until the last lap

And then on the last lap pass on the inside staying on the rail

The girls in front of her we'll drift outside I guarantee it. She'll be able to pass on the inside maintaining the rail and maintaining maximum energy and shortest distance

Probably around the first turn on the last lap with about 300 yards to go would be ideal

Anyway she should not try to lead the race and take it out at a fast pace

If she follows this strategy I guarantee she'll finish top 8. If she tries to lead and push the pace she might not even qualify

If she has to let out a little yell or something to get the runner ahead of her to move out of her way that's another possible strategy but stay on the darn rail and pass on the inside as the runners drift wide on the turns.

I'm telling you everyone panics and tries to get out wide and burns up all their energy. Hennes burned herself up at the ACC Championship going way wide. Stay on the inside and pass on the inside the rail will open up. Maybe work on a little scootch down move and get the runner in front of you to move out wide

Is there any rules against screaming and yelling? Properly timed yell down the homestretch wouldn't hurt either

lol, she followed this strategy for 800 m, and qualified with the 21st fastest time (but 2nd in her heat)

Meh. 2nd place in 4:20.5x. Slow race and still outkicked. She's got strength for days, but no top end speed. Probably makes NCAAs, but doesn't score.

That is two smart tactical races in a row.

7empest, just use your registered username, were used to your nonsense already... no cap

Thanks for the vid. Obviously, they are now working on tactics and this was pretty good. Slowest opening 300 of any Tuohy race since 6th grade lol. Then she controlled race from the front winding up the pace right up until the last 50m. She coasted there to finish comfortable 2 of 5 auto spots.

Although there is no sprint speed to speak of, she is now regularly closing in 65, which really is not far off the NCAA leaders. If she does make the final, her presence will at least guarantee a fast race. Remember at Sec, she dragged the entire top 7 to prs.

It would not shock me if Tuohy went 4:08, so that drags Gear, Hurta, Tynnissmaa, and BYU group etc into 4:06, :07 range. Could be quite the race.

wow, thanks for posting the video of the race. She ran like a boss. Does not look like a FR with that experienced racing. I saw multiple gear changes, holding off Iona with 200m to go was phenomenal. Best I've seen her in a long, long time. Exciting... also, she is wearing adidas spikes. No Dragonflies. No excuses. Just boss-like behavior.

You can't drag somebody who beats you. Dragging something or somebody means that it or they are behind you. If Tuohy leads for a while and then somebody passes her, they are not being dragged, they are running with the brakes on.

how is that first girl semiuc still running in ncaa when she started running for toledo in 2014.. 7 years eligibility?

uhh then what are rabbits for?

Isn’t this girl significantly slower than she was in high school?

Haven’t we all seen this type of thing before?

Am I missing something?

Yo we could only imagine how much faster she can run with better shoes, should pull a nico young and paint three stripes on em dragonflies

She just pr'ed in the 1500m last week, so no. She is doing well.

?? hes basically right about the dragging because they wouldnt get prs if not for the fast pace and push the first runner is doing which takes more energy
