LOLO MF JONES!!

Did she qualify on time? How did she get in there?

She ran a 13.10 this year which is under the B standard.

Real question, why did she run so far off her normal times at the trials? She ran 7 100h races this season, slowest was 13.36. Then at the trials she ran a 14.86 and a 14.50, super far off all of her other races this year. That seems more than an 'off day', and it wasn't the same day either.

I didn't watch the 100m hurdles, so I missed this. At age 41? That's pretty damn impressive.

Per her social media she had hurt her hamstring and didn’t even know if she was going to be able to run

This article has more details. It’s interesting that she considers qualifying for the trials at her age to be her proudest achievement. She says, “It shows I never gave up.” Way to go, Lolo!

Yes, her right hamstring was taped up for the race. She’s nearly 42. Loved seeing her in the field.

Lolo FF Jones.

There. Fixed it for you.

Even if you're a manic weirdo, you sometimes say things which cut through to the core of truth no one else can acknowledge.

the truth is also that men burn themselves out sooner because of the irrational level of drive and aggression instilled by higher testosterone

letsrun and flotrack both posted interviews w her. she explains it all there. pretty good interview i think

She had so many bad luck over the years.

Took me a minute... I like it!

She is cute as fukk. Ironically there is only literally 2 moths between her and Bekele. He is also defying aging, and will get a gold medal in the thon in Paris

She did good

As an F... I wish.

O.K. Apologies as this is only vaguely track related. In the alpha toxic male culture, one of the most demeaning taunts you can hurl at another male is that he is either a "pXXsy," a "cXXX", or a Mother FXXXXX." Try that in a bar and you will likely have your head handed to you. However, the BroJos mods seem perfectly content to allow threads "Male/Female Athlete MF Time," to regularly appear. Defenders will "wink, wink," call it a term of endearment or even "Mighty Fast." But, "wink, wink," we all know what is meant. To make this even more clear, see what happens if a thread "Female Athlete FF (Father FXXXXX) Time" appears. Does that make you uncomfortable? It should. So how about cleaning it up. I don't find "MF" in the rules of track and field. And I don't hear this term used by Track and Field TV commentors. And I don't ever see "MF" ever written out. So "wink, wink," how about just stopping with this nonsense??

u mad bro?
