I rewatched the race. She didn't let up. I don't know what you're talking about. However, when I rewatched it, I set the playback speed to 0.5. You can see she was late getting out of the blocks. That might've accounted for the result. The comments on this thread about her not wanting to represent our country are ridiculous. Right up there with Trumpies fraud charges.

Dear runnerdave,
shacarri is the one that said she doesn’t want to represent our country. This is literal fact and therefore as far away from ridiculous as you can get. perhaps you should ditch your slow mo replay watching and read her words.
Agreed, truly one of the dumbest and most annoying characters we have witnessed in this sport.
You said "one of" the dumbest and most annoying.
Who is dumber? Who is more annoying? Can you think of anyone?
As bad as it may sound, but that's exactly what our sport needs - more people with character. Dumb and annoying, yet people are talking about her. Worse are athletes with an amount of charisma equaling that of a loaf of bread, nobody cares about them. No hype, no banter, no celebrations, no tears and no emotions are the main reason, why venues with T&F are empty.

Horrible take.
The one thing that will drive fans away from the sport even more, is turning on the Olympics to see SR screaming that she's going to sue a camera man for looking at her on the track.
Can you imagine. She will continue to be silently turned down for opportunities and endorsements etc with this attitude.
and all that talk in the LetsRun YouTube interview with her about 'im not speaking for me, im speaking for all athletes'... CAN YOU IMAGINE her speaking for you as an athlete? Horrifying.

Positively horrifying, old sport. Indeed, what a dreadful little thought you had there.
If you were are athlete, would you be horrified? Or just laugh a little and go on about your day? The histrionics around here are laughable.

I wouldn't find it a laughing matter if she claimed she was representing me / speaking for me, no.
