Keira D'Amato Insane Strava Workout - Trials Favorite?

Yea she is my favourite but I'm biased as I grew up in Richmond. Although its not hot in RVA now she knows how to run in heat and humidity.

I saw this and thought the same thing- she seems to be in great shape. But if you look at her weekly mileage she really cut back her training a month or two ago. Wonder if she had a niggle of sorts? But 70-80mpw seems a little low compared to some of the others who we know are running 120-130+

This may or may not be public info but there are serious doubts of whether or not Molly Seidel will run the trials. She has been complaining about a knee injury all build and has not run in 2 weeks (see her strava for proof)

Keira has long been a low mileage runner due to her older age. When she set the AR of 2:19 at Houston her weekly mileage was around 70-80. But you are right that it does seem that she took some time off due to a niggle a month or two ago. Happy to see she's in better shape now and crushing workouts!

any proof of this (besides Strava)? this would be quite some big news, and unfortunate if true

Sisson and Saina are by far the favorites. The third spot will come down to Sara Hall, D’Amato, Fiona O’Keefe, Tuliamuk, Kellyn Taylor, and Lindsay Flanagan. Running a 15 mile tempo at 5:20s is not that impressive, it simply means she’ll be in the pack

U left out the Olympian making their debut.

Sisson will win and it won’t be close.

Ummm it’s on Strava and confirmed by an anonymous poster on a website known for being a safe space to spread disinformation.

What more proof do you want???

Since like years she doesn't post all her runs publicly anymore. So no runs on strava means really nothing for the chances of Molly S.

Natosha Rogers to make the team.

She’s been back to posting all of her workouts, races, easy runs, etc. for quite a while now.. before this sudden drop off.

Chemical marvel!

You’ve been brainwashed.

A high quality 70-80/week is vastly superior to a cruddy, banged up 120-130. Look, If she ran 1:09 for her closing 13.1 in a workout she’s actually in pretty good shape.

Is there any indication that she just, you know, didn't set her workouts to private?

Lol. This is not a tempo. Her splitting 70:06 is a true marathon effort. That's fine, but can we call a spade a spade?

Is this actually an insane workout? I agree it's a very solid one, but one that I'd expect someone of her caliber to be able to do.

I believe she is a favorite to make the team.

I would say that Fiona O’Keefe has a better shot than Natosha Roger’s. O’Keefe has a 67 min half marathon, and Roger’s doesn’t have the fast half times yet. I don’t think O’Keefe has much of a shot either: you have to consider the experience of runners like Aliphine, Keira, Emily, Betsy, Molly, Lindsay, and more
