RE: Does Hasay Even Deserve to be in the NOP???

I don't know much about running, but I just scanned Hasay's Wikipedia page and it looks like all her accomplishments are predicated on the word "Junior". I suspect the story is that she can't accomplish anything now that she's competing with the real ladies.

You should have stopped typing and turned off your device after saying you don't know much about running. Moron.

Is this really the original Jamin? If so, dude, the time off from here made you suck. You should have either stayed, or never came back...seriously.

The race was meant to guarantee the B standard. She went out in 15:55, and was nowhere near the A standard with a mile to go, once she knew she wouldn't blow up she took off and closed in 2:25 for the last 800 coming up short of a time she didn't need. Not having enough to go a second faster has nothing to do with optimal pace earlier in the race. If her goal was the A she would have had a slightly faster pace. Why are people on letsrun batshit dumb?

The only dumb person here is you. I was basing my statements off of the information that you provided. Had you actually initially explained your statement then I would have understood what you meant. Not my fault. Learn to communicate.

Um, clearly you are easily confused. You're talking about two different people. Also it was a simple concept.

Did you notice that she was a 16-time All-American at Oregon?

The guy says how many people could replace her, and he names a Canadian. lol. You lose. Jordan continues to improve, she bleeds Oregon, and she's MARKETABLE. Of course she should be on the team.

Whoop-dee-dooo. All her accomplishments are college-based. Women's collegiate track very mediocre. She no longer can beat up on lame competition. She running with the big boys (ladies) now and they are leaving her in their dust.

"It only makes sense she marries someone with a bigger running future than she has. It will ease some of the pressure, keep her name in the public's mind, and provide much more financial security"

You mean she should follow the Adam Goucher model?
