She is still not a top flight miler, but she is getting closer. A year ago she was barely hanging on the last 200 to run 4:12-4:15. Now, a decent finish.
Yeah they were running all bunched up. Very wide around the turns... A lot of jockeying for position... There was even some pushing and shoving... Starlipper tried to go way wide and kind of burned herself up... Tuohy stayed more on the inside and made a move kind of in the middle... Meyers didn't kick that hard and they all just eased up at the finish line... Tuohy continued on into the victory lap and hand slapped a lot of the crowd... It was a pretty raucous event

Starliper is where Tuohy was a year ago, having to learn how to race. Give her some time. Tuohy seems to be consistently getting into a good spot - just need to work on protecting it a bit more in a slow race like the 3000.
Which is definitely world class! U think Nike signs losers?
As I said, interesting definition. 39th and not making national teams isn't what I'd call world class, but to each their own. You did say "runners" plural though, so I'd be curious what other "world class runners" were in the section. Then again Meyer doesn't have an "s" on the end so maybe you're just fast and loose with that letter.
You care because you made the statement. You then asked the question. You are caught in a loop. Many top 50 people are not world class. Many are not professionals. Many have to quit and get a job.
