Should Wiley run the 800m or 1500m at Olympic trials?

Why? Because she isn't running well?

She can do both.

she's tested neg twice in the usada.

I think she has a much better chance to make the team in the 1500 by training for and going hard from 600-700 meters out (off an honest pace). I think it's much more difficult to go up against Mu, Rogers, Akins, Wilson, etc. as I believe they can close better than Wiley when healthy and in shape.

Ha! Right!!

No matter what she does or where she runs, there will always be a good number who will claim she’s cheating, etc.

The only thing that might repair her image to these people is if she went 180 degrees and joined that lawsuit. But, then a lot of new people would dislike her. So, she’ll be polarizing no matter what just by virtue of being born at the wrong place.

She’s making the right call to train where she thinks she can perform best and let the accusers condemn away. If she never gets busted, continues to do good things, interviews well, and treats others well, eventually the accusers will subside. Of, course, if she gets busted like Lance, depending how far along she is, she’ll get the Lance treatment x 2.

Anyway, moving to train with a new group isn’t going to fix anything (unless it is to help her running, which may or may not happen).

As for the topic, she’s running the 800 great now, and she shouldn’t abandon it just yet, but the 1500/mile is where it will be for her. She’ll be the best ever from the US (for now), and we’ll see how close she can get to the very top.

You should stop with the lying.

Alan Webb goes to UM, and though it went well, no one can say for sure that it might’ve been better for him to stay home.

Mary Cain moved across the country to run with the best. It probably wasn’t the best.

You people who say you want the best for her are just agitating for her to fail.

Btw, if she wants to go somewhere else, then great! But, she sure as hell doesn’t need to go anywhere in order to “rehabilitate” her image to people who obviously think so poorly of her and likely always will! lol

I think the 1500. She's almost a lock for the team, whereas the 800 there's a way bigger chance she doesn't make it. With how good she looks now, she should probably double. She probably needs to get stronger to help with rounds, and at the rate she's improving, she could conceivably win both.

But Mu, unlike Wilson has been able to avoid getting busted too even though she was likely doping harder. So I don't see any reason Wiley would ever test positive

Her detractors on these boards are claiming she cheats but the authorities can't detect the cheat. Think about the physical and psychological edge she has over her demoralized opponents in the US. Why would she leave HU if that's the case?

But when is it ever detected? The cheating can be obvious without the athlete ever getting caught.
