Does anyone know why Christine Babcock is not doing well? I believe she set a national hs record in 1600m and this year in xc she couldn't even get top 30 in the ncaa west final. Was there some kind of injury? Also if any of you are familiar with Texas's Sarah Andrews: NXN runner up in 08, blistering 16:01 at Woodbrdige(breaking Babcock's record last year) She did nothing as a freshmen at Oregon. Girls from CA who were worse HS runners beat her by a ton.
Babcock's coming off a strange foot injury:

WTF! They brought her to a chiropractor first? No knock on chiro's, they're great for back, hip and neck pain, but Seattle has one of the top Sport Medicine podiatrist in Richard Bouche let alone the International Foot and Ankle Foundation headed by Dr. Mary Crawford. Whoever at UW who does contracts with doctors should be fired. No wonder all their runners NEVER get better after an injury.
Plus this supposedly "strange" condition is commonly diagnosed with an MRI.
