give up one of their two Olympic spots when they qualified for both the 5 and the 10, so she could have a spot.
Heard this on the Ali on the Run podcast when she was interviewed about her new book. Ali admitted she was aghast (and I'm double aghast!) but then they didn't go into it that much.
Has anyone read the book? How does it come off? Of course Shalane and Kara said no. But I've watched the Olympic trials thinking so and so should give up one of their 2 berths cause they're not even gonna come close to winning and let whoever beloved (Ben True, Abby Dagastino Cooper) have a spot. So I guess it depends on who you're rooting for, but wow, directly asking is ballsy.
