Will Gabe Grunewald and Jordan Hasay avoid racing each other during the outdoor season? Or will there be a big deal made about it should they face off, like during the Prefontaine Classic?
I'm not saying that it should be as big of a deal as the Mary Decker Slaney Tabb and Zola Budd incident, but there wasn't a Letsrun.com back then to hype up situations like this.
Hasay wouldn't really be racing Grunewald. She would just be in the same race.
Doubtful they would even be in the same race. Remember Hasay is going to parlay all her middle distance work into a fantastic 10k this summer.
They race at indoor national and Hasay lost in embarrassing fashion, she was blowed out,
Correction, Hasay was leading the last lap, Grunewald had to step on her foot to knock her out of the race, and Hasay was given the decision of the judges.
Hasay then withdrew, and Salazar asked USATF to let Grunewald go in her place.
In other words she was "blowed out".
"Embarrassing" is saying someone was "blowed out". The IQ of LR posters continues to amaze.
Good point. Hasay is a totally different runner. She is long distance. For her to compete on this small indoor track is truly a tribute to her talent.
Pistols at twenty paces!
They'll be racing a road 5k this weekend. Who wins?
Actually, Gabe rear ended Hasay after she ran out gas. Look at the race, she died plain and simple. It's not the first time it has happened this indoor season. Gotta love the Nike propaganda machine.
Why the hell can't you be intelligent enough to understand that someone can see the situation differently than you and NOT paid by Nike or duped by "Nike propaganda"? So Hasay just died and slowed so slowly that Gabe couldn't avoid hitting her from behind or hitting her shoulder on the outside on the pass? Gabe has a history of such things. Pay attention!
