Elimination in the 5000m, the event she primed for, stung. She had run 14:41 three weeks earlier in Monaco, in which she had closed in ~61s. So on reflection, with slight modification in tactics, arguably she would have been one of the eight to advance, in what was a very tough, imbalanced heat draw.
She pushed it harder in the middle of that semi than she needed to advance. It came back to bite her in the final 100m.

But props to Cranny and Schweizer for at least closing out that semi in 62s and 63s, respectively.

I don’t know but it’s true that death can’t kill you. Something else actually kills you.

I don't know what it says but she can't be totally displeased. Tanaka in the semifinal broke 4 minutes for only the third time in her career.
All three have been in the Olympics

I am not entirely sure what the correct translation for "死んでも死にきれない" is. So I looked up in the dictionary.

I think the Japanese are beginning to believe their own lies. They showed up and that is about it.
