re: reed

And a high schooler beats her 1500m time by 4 seconds, that's just so awesome.

Hasay has been running hard since she was 9 and has a PB of only 4:10 despite specializing in it HS/college. She would only threaten Flanagan in the 5K cuz Flanagan is marathon training and cuz Schumacher is highly successful at burning out athletes (Teg, Bairu, Solinsky and others).

She has no hope in anything shorter than 10k, way too slow. As other poster put it, same career arc as Sarah Hall, decent runner, very nice person, gosh darn cute, but too slow.

Jordan, get on with the half/full-marathon already!

I was at the race this evening and Hasay looked very comfortable in the 5 k. Interestingly enough, Flanagan was in attendance watching. I honestly think Jordan can give Shalane a competitive race at USA's.[/quote]

Hahaha...hahaha...haha

Certainly you jest! Hahaha

re: Shocking? Not really...

Can someone confirm this? I believe this makes 5(??) Races in a row in which she didn't get lapped!

re: douglas burke

And this is the same case w/ Cam Levins except no one has faith in him... He has great potential, but he just needs to adjust to the training and put it all together...

Stop acting like the 1500 is something she takes that seriously.

A) You're comparing her to HS athletes that are extremely rare and who are faster than all current collegiates

B) She specialized in it in HS only because she wouldn't have contended in the 5k at the Olympic Trials. She ran it in college but didn't 'specialize' in it. She's always been projected to be a 5k/10k/marathon runner.

re: Awesome possum

I'm assuming that you were paid to post this garbage.

There are many talented women distance runners today who have raised the bar and deserve great respect and credit for motivating the next generation.

But Jordan Hasay has uniquely carried the weight of being a role model for young women runners since Junior High. Very few people in her position have navigated such high expectations with the poise, good will, charisma and success that she has shown.

Her latest races suggest that she has a future as a professional runner, but no matter what her path takes, she should be recognized as having one of the greatest influences on women’s running in the last few decades.

re: DaveW

DaveW has it right on. You can all say what you want about the high schoolers and jordan's so called "lack of speed", but the fact remains this kid Jordan has been in the spot lite since she was 12!!!!! And, more remarkably the more arrows this young 22 takes, the better she gets!!!!

Truly a remarkable young lady and truly a role model for all runners of all ages.
