KT’s, long beautiful strides are also her downfall … as she is incapable of increasing her turnover and speed, by using a shorter stride and increasing her turnover and speed… as most all other distance runners can and do… once she runs low on energy… and can no longer fly…
Time and again, she gets left behind or passed … as she ends up lumbering along… with her monotonous long strides… while others increase their turnover and speed past her…

Time and again? How many races has she lost in the last year? I do agree that she will need to improve her speed work to be competitive when she moves to the next level - but I wouldn't say that at the NCAA level, she's been getting her ass kicked since last year's outdoor season. I also think she needs to focus on the 5K - she is not going to be competitive at the 1500m pro level unless he makes drastic changes to her running style

Tuohy is a 5k runner who can move down a bit but is vulnerable when she does. Will always have difficulty at 1500m and even mile. At 3k she becomes much tougher to beat, and 5k looks to be her ideal distance. Hopefully she will improve her leg speed for those races (after college) where she will need to close fast.
H'm. Broke the high school and college mile record and ran the fastest 1600 DMR split ever recorded. Granted she did not have a good NCAA final and is never going to be a 200m sprinter, but I'd say that is not too bad.

She is a 4:11 1500 meter lady. She can't be competitive on the world stage with that. She would almost get lapped in a 1500 race.

Not bad but she hasn't shown the speed for the next level at 1500. Think Jordan Hassay who was great in HS at 1500m but no so much later. Still had a solid career.
