But aren't all of those things are possible if she joins a track club with pros? Even pros have low-pressure races.

well I'm on the extreme outside looking in here, but I am guessing that when your paycheck depends on how fast you run...no race is truly low pressure. At least in top groups like Salazar's or Schumacher's where Cain would be.
You run through the injuries, you worry about clawbacks, you have to market yourself, you need to do interviews every time you are asked...
in college you have a built in support system. Abbey D is almost at Train's level and she says that she still needs a collegiate setup.
