Shelby Houlihan blocked Laura Muir after coming around the final bend.

rjm33 and his multiple troll personalities have crapped all over this thread out of jealousy that a clean American beat his imaginary lover Laura Muir.

Suck it, weerdo.

Just going to throw this out there, probably already been used, it's kind of obvious...

Hotlegs Houlihan

Exactly. It's also May. Good running for so early. At least Muir didn't lose to some smiling, happy go lucky Epopians etc. who are confident in officials letting them get away with doping.

i generally agree with you based on the optics of it all. BUT, you have ZERO proof that Houlihan isn't doping. So, she could be just as doped as the Ethiopians who you have no proof on either. She's on Jager's team who has suspicious blood levels so nothing is for sure. silent, secretive coach.......don't be so certain just becauses she's a nice white girl

If I was you, I'd try to be objective publicly, because you come off as a biased idiot just touting opinions anonymously on a distance running forum

This has to be one of the dumbest posts I've seen. BTC has done nothing, to my knowledge, in the past that would suggest that any of their members dope. Sure there was that fancy bears leak but that seems like a one off thing that did not prove Jager or anyone else on that list was doping. Ethiopia and other east African countries on the other hand have a history of shady anti-doping practices.

I think you meant Muir got boxed in - waited too long to make the pass. She snoozed she loozed.

Is Shelby H. the new ultra hated runner now?

By a certain self-flagellating intellectual dwarf with a keyboard, apparently yes.

Muir snoozed because she wasn't mentally all there on Saturday. She graduated from vet school a few days earlier after taking grueling final exams. And jumped on a long flight to Eugene. Not making excuses for Muir. She wasn't going to beat Houlihan in Eugene on that day.

Theres nothing there indicating Muir had the strongest final kick.

Wrong. Muir did not have a better kick than Shelby. This is obvious as she at no poin in the final 100m shows any increase in speed greater than Shelby, even at the end.

Yes...pointless thread really.

If anything Muir has a slightly greater speed at very end when the race is sown up...what does that prove?

Europeans like Muir should start to brush teeth, use mouthwash, and floss each and every day.

This is all academic. Let's see who is ahead come July.

I initially thought this was about twitter which is all I associate with blocking anymore.

Did not know that. That's pretty awesome! Hope she gets the UK mile record.

If anything, there are more people LR who see SH as Jenny Simpson 2.0 . They imagine JS with a real kick, big enough that she'll be able to run down dopers in the last 200 yards. They are sure she's going low 57 in the next month or two. If you don't believe them, believe her 400 time from High School.

Laura was going to run straight to the victory, but Shelby came off the bend and closed the little gap that Laura was going to use. Laura was forced to go around and follow Shelby. As they were both going to the finish, Laura had a lot more speed in the tank.

Great move by Shelby. There was no contact and it was legal, but Laura would have won the race had Shelby not blocked the space.

Just another lame attempt by Scorpio-dud to stir up controversy. It is endless, every week criticizing something or looking for drama that just isn’t there. Sad, really. If we all agreed to ignore him Letsrun would be a better place.

Agreed. Nothing to see here, move along.
