Still, poor form
Bizarre. Looked like someone pushed her from behind and she just stopped.

Oh yeah, I totally agree....my point was that it was surprising given her experience in international Championships. Very bizarre, whatever the reason. Definitely impeded other runners.
There was someone sprawled out face down on the track afterwards. Was that her?
People were tending to her. Hope she’s ok :(

Wasn't her, she DNF'ed. I think you're talking about Simona Vrzalova
Marta Pen Freitas just posted on Instagram that she made it into the semifinal, so the pileup didn't end up eliminating her.
I think was mentioned in another thread but if there’s more than 39 athletes they should run in 4 heats and do 5 from each heat and 4 time qualifiers. These 14-15 women heats are a mess and it’s an event that has 12 in the final. Unnecessarily cramming them in there.

Announcers made the same point while replaying her stop. She had to have been injured or similar.
what heat? who was it?

and then they un sprint heats with empyy lanes.
Looks like she used to train with sprinters on every high school team in America. That would be my explanation. That's the native behavior of high school sprinters—particularly males—everywhere.
