That's an option at USAs. Anyone know if it's an option at the Olympics?

I don't think they would do that for something that happened so late in the race.
What?
75 for an opening lap?!? They should just move on and pretend that race never happened.
If only...
Ban this troll.
youre an idiot. like legit i thought this was a troll. dear god.
Mods shouldn't be allowed to troll their own boards.
Why a re-run? Because you didn't like the race outcome?
At the USAs, one of the options if there is a foul that significantly impacts a race, one of the options is to simply re-run the last race.
Uceny ran poor tactically and paid for it. Horrible way to finish in the olympic final.
I don't konw, but getting up and finishing the race is.
Is that really an option at the US Nat'l Championships? Has there ever been a re-run??

Spot on, they should all be embarrassed, the losers because they let it go so slow and the winner because of the doping.
No, let's draw straws to see if Uceny was third!
That's what you prefer, right?
Will not happen - feel bad for Ucency but there was no deliberate attempt to bring her down. As for an ex druggie winning that just makes it worse...
Review would show no foul. Uceny clearly kicked the Ethiopian, who was well to the side and behind, and then tripped on her own foot. BBC had perfect slow motion coverage of the fall. Uceny is lucky she didn't cause others to fall, because if she had gotten up and medalled, she would have gotten DQ'd and lost it.
Let's not.
It's her own damn fault for letting the pace go out barely under 5:00 pace. If she wanted to not run in traffic she had that option. She wanted to roll the dice for a kick and that stuff is part of the game.
I feel for her (and for the rest of the field losing to probable dopers), but let's not make her out to be a victim.
I really like Morgan, but man she did not help herself by sitting in 8th -ish, I can't believe what I saw
just stop it rojo. seriously stop. you are embarrassing yourself and letsrun.
There was no foul. Incidental contact. I do feel terribly for her.
