What a shame after so many near misses and some very good times. If not for all the politics going on in the women's 800 and the chaos at the 2016 Trials with the fall, I think she could have done very well on the world stage.
Her 1:57.2 split in practice two years ago was pretty incredible:
Honestly, what's the point in continuing when your ultimate race final is filled with men anyway? I'm being totally serious.
Yes, women's 800 is a farce.
I hope she gets a boy who goes on to win the female 800m in 2040.

So you hope her child is intersex?

Agreed. The women's 800m is the dumbest event right now.
This might well have been a factor. It is obviously very frustrating to finish just out of 3rd in two Olympic Trials, but she certainly showed that 1:57.2 800m time trial was no fluke with the 1:57 in Europe last summer. If there weren't three intersex athletes with ten times the testosterone competing at the 800m, would she have kept going to world's? Entirely possible. On another note, seeing that she had a male pacer in the 800m time trial made me wonder how fast even more talented women's 800m runners could run with a male pacer the whole way.
Too bad. Beautiful girl with real talent, PR'd last year with 1:57. Unfortunately she doesn't have the balls (literally) to medal.

You vote for Trump and you think the problem in athletics is men competing with women and not doping? Special type of stupid you are but that's expected since Trump voters are among the dumbest in a country with only 30 percent undergrad degrees.
