Holy smokes!!! Brenda Martinez 404 1500 @ Mt. Sac!!!

No kidding. I didn't go to the meet, but I was pretty shocked when I saw that on the results page.

I can't find the race video. Anyone know which heat she was in?

She was in the fast heat, just like all the other women who can run 4:04 for 1500m. They call it the "Invitational" at this meet.

There were no other women who could run 4:04.

You haven't see a video, have you?

diga no a las drogas!

I'm sorry, could you repeat that? I couldn't hear you over the sound of this mole digging in my backyard.

You're right; she must have been in the slow heat.

Priceless.

You punks keep congratulating yourselves on your cleverness. Perhaps someone helpful will tell the rest of us whether any of the videos H01 to H10 contains the elite race.

Trollist answered your question fine. She was in the invitational heat. It is marked/name as W 1500 H01 (Invite).

I'll be even nicer though and do this:

Just don't give other ppl crap when they try to help you next time.

Wow, she left it all on the track. Great to see her continue to race well.

Yeah, i'm sure if you saw someone of her origin walking down the street, you would say 'Look at that Rancho Cucamonga, Californian!'

If I saw her walking down the street it would be impossible for me to see her "origin" ... nor would I be able to see that she is a Californian.

You see it though, and that is the difference between me and you.

Uhh, this is Southern California. We have LOTS of people like that. Leo would fit right in and was real popular with the fans at Carlsbad.

Mary who?

it's up!!!!!!!!!!!

Almost as hot as Beverly Ramos,the Puerto Rican steepler who ran 4:12 behind her.

Come on we all know she doesnt look American and looks about as Latin American as they come. But who cares - she is hot as hot!

What does an American look like, exactly?

Caucasian, just like the Boston Bombers.

Wonder if she could have broken 4 if she'd had Uceny, Simpson, or Rowbury pushing her.

Based on her features and skin tone, yes you can draw conclusions on her race. You're playing ignorant if you're playing the 'I don't see color' card. And yes, I guess the difference between you and me is I can look at a black guy and say, 'Hey, that guy is of African origin,' or someone with brown skin and say, 'Hey, that person is of hispanic or latin american origin'. But then again, you don't see color, so you wouldn't know anything about that.
