I think she may have gone into this year thinking she was the top dog when, in reality, she wasn't even the top American. She won in a weak year in a weak race. Just like Centro did with his bronze. However, Centro didn't let the medal get to his head and he's had many great performances since then.
Jenny's medal blinded her to how many women in the world are better than her.
she is nutty as squirrel poo
Absolutely 163rd at NCAA Cross Country is unacceptable! She absolutely has to switch coaches! There is no way she will amount to anything World Class with this coaching! She better switch now!
Hire Kreger from CAMERON in Lawton, OK.
New coach: definitely.
I mean, it's not like she's had ANY success with her current coach. Oh wait, didn't she win a World 1500 title last year?
Maybe Bekele should get a new coach too, given that he won a world title last year too, then didn't medal this year.
Athletes are so dumb.

She might need to leave altitude for a while since her speed seems to have left her this season.
Interesting, because I would have actually said the opposite: I think it's her endurance/strength that is lacking. In some of her races this year, particularly her two Olympic 1500 rounds, she was struggling to keep up with the pace prior to the final lap sprint. When's the last time she put together any kind of decent race at a distance over 1500 meters? It's been nothing but sub-par 3,000s and 5,000 ever since she left Wetmore.

She is running CONSIDERABLY slower under Henner than under Wetmore.
Bekele DNF'd Worlds last year.
