Look how political correctness is taking hold. Next we should agree to give participation trophies to all team members. In fact, let's not allow the athletes to actually keep their medals or be acknowledged for their place in the race. What should happen is that the place should just note the country of the athlete that way it doesn't matter if one teammate beats another because there is no notoriety.
Honestly, if Molly Huddle wanted the thing bad enough, she should have fought through the line. She didn't. She may be classy and all, blah blah. But this isn't the first time this has happened to her. It actually shows a lapse in her focus and discipline. She deserved the medal right up to the point that she allowed another person to pass her. Tough Beans!!!
