dont start an argument .. why even compare a team sport to an individual sport and to a dual sport athlete who is under the spotlight since she was a 7TH GRADER!
Ok do you want me to bring up gymnastics? Throughout history with fame and talent pressure cane alongside it. She's complaining about something that absolutely won't change ever lol
And if anything it's worse for a team sport player because they have to uplift their teammates and go off. You ever see the videos of Trae young or other highschool stars going to a gym where they are chanting overrated the entire time? I bet Tuohy has never had to deal with that lol.
I remember in highschool the night before the state championships my coach told me not to look at the milesplit forum and the meet preview and to just run my race. Across all sports though you shouldn't read comments about yourself like that. The Internet is a dangerous place
comparing two different sports, two different communities, two different athletes is pointless but okay
the distance running world is small unlike other team sports, team sports are all about points, running are all about record times, also running and basketball is not a good comparison to make(thats just foolish)
you obviously do not understand, probably because you are not a distance runner, not familiar w the community or maybe ignorant of tuohy's story and her history and just giving out opinions after listening to one podcast of her or all of the above
if theres one athlete in here who has the most number of threads, and most replies, its katelyn tuohy, its been for seven years now..m
she was just a 7th grader!! when this site has started "discussing" tuohy and now shes at college, and the amount of attention she gets has never died out
when tuohy lines up for a race....immense pressure, expectations and predictions by people also line up.. all of it seem to never end, for tuohy
Imagine having an upcoming running star as your kid and reading the crap that comes up in posts on LRC. What I would love to see is that LRC is changed so that nasty creeps can't hide behind their user name. If LRC was like Facebook so that we could all see the nasty creeps name and picture - that they wouldn't be anonymous nasty creeps - that would probably shut them up because they wouldn't have the courage to be nasty creeps in public. Sure, Tuohy and others have to learn to put up with the sacred "freedom of speech" of nasty creeps but that doesn't mean it's OK. Let the N.C.s show their face in public so they can publicly receive some of the crap they enjoy dishing out.
I am glad she has risen above the negativity on this site and is thriving in college. Hopefully she knows that there are people on here that wish her nothing but success!

Hoping she at least watches her race videos on youtube and see the comments, pretty much all the comments on the ncaa races that shes in is mostly about her and how happy people are to see her rise above adversity, injuries and pressure and everything
katelyn tuohy have so many great individual moments, won so many national championships and was given so many honors yet her most memorable moment in high school was when she saw her best friend haleigh having the best race and was able to qualify with her to nxn after 3 years of not qualifying
heres the vid of it, it truly was such an amazing moment ---

Haha. Search for my username and the forums and you will see that I am extremely knowledgeable on distance running especially highschool distance running. Comparing athletes under pressure is not pointless. I just used Trae young because I saw a hawks game last night. In high school he was infinitely more famous than Katelyn Tuohy will ever be. To say that my point is pointless is willful ignorance. You're just saying my comparison is pointless because you don't want to accept that with success comes criticism. How hard is it to understand that. If she was running 19 min 5ks no one would care about her. There's a reason a JV runner essentially has no pressure compared to a varsity runner.
I Don't understand how you can't correlate success at a young level and the pressure that comes with it and any sport I guess she should quit running if the pressure is too much. Which I don't think it is. She's not the first young famous runner to do well in college and people watching her. Despite all of this, I think she's doing very well. It's very easy to just not go on letsrun and continue running or training

"In high school he was infinitely more famous than Katelyn Tuohy will ever be."
thats clearly a BS comparison, basketball and distance running has a different scale of popularity, basketball is mainstream sport.. dont put it on the same scale as distance running... katelyn tuohy was at the top of the sport as a high schooler in the distance running world, dont push your trae young is more famous idea just coz her popularity wasnt on par of his
katelyn as a high schooler broke too many records, undefeated in xc for since her soph year till graduating, 30 straight xc race wins, 150+ track wins, only FIVE loses.. was on the cover of sports illustrated magazine, has FIVE gatorade trophies (a record), her image and likeness was on a freaking gatorade bottle, has a katelyn tuohy day in her hometown, and so much more ... so theres really no point of you comparing her fame to a freakin basketball player, because no other hs distance runner has achieved and done what tuohy did
"You're just saying my comparison is pointless because you don't want to accept that with success comes criticism."
you're not wrong, indeed success comes criticism, but what tuohy received from this site is far from "criticism" .... im just gonna let you dig up the old threads here to see for your self because i really do not want to bring up the toxicity, the unforgiving words these people said to young - present tuohy
