Not bad at all

Objective was likely to run at M pace. If so, mission accomplished.

Was it? Why would she go all the way to Rome just to do a 13 mile tempo run? Besides, M pace was not hit if she has ambitions to PR at any point.

How many $ for the appearance fee? Can't imagine she received any time bonuses!

Salpeter's development is fairly incredible at 30 years old. Her 5k to Marathon times exploded already in 2018 and now she dropped from 67:55 to 66:40 in the half.

If you look at her IG it looks like she did some Nike events with youth runners. She probably got cut a check for that. Also it's not outrageous to do 13 miles @ marathon pace in a half marathon race. You get people to run with and get to simulate race day morning, the gear you wear, you warm up, etc. This isn't that hard to figure out. The headline on this thread is accurate but disingenuous. There's no reason to make a big deal out of this. She clearly did a tempo run at marathon place with a race NOP has a relationship with.

Why do all the way to Rome? Because it's Rome. It's not Sheboygan.

How is she running in the Rome half?

???

What an absolute failure! American record my arse. She should just hang up her shoes and eat some pasta. She’d go quicker with a bit more muscle.

Hahahahahaha

When you experience joy from hard times or the difficulties of others, it's time to sit down and really take a hard look and reexamine yourself. Being serious here, man. Do it for your own sake.

Who’s Jorden Hasey?

That's the comment of the perfect moron.

On one hand, we have a talented athlete who is the first Westerner in the standings and on the other side we have a jerk behind his keyboard, who is definitely eating hamburger and coca-cola, which weighs 150 kg and allows himself to criticize.

Pathetic.

That is one big ass hamburger and Coke!

She went to Rome for nice payoff, and to not have the attention she would get running a larger half in the US. Is there an interview with Hasay after the race?

I imagine it was a test at marathon pace to make sure all is right physically. They will have a learned a good bit from the race.

Pass the matzah

If Jordan is healthy for the next year, she is an automatic birth on the Olympic team. Same with Amy Cragg.

That means that there is ONE remaining spot for

Huddle

Sisson

Kipyego

Flanagan

Linden

Keiffer

Kellyn Taylor

Laura Thweatt

Steph Bruce

Or probably 2 or 3 others.

Wait, Hasay is going to get pregnant?

Reason has no place here.

Most of these replies sound like jealous wanna bes and never beens mad no one ever offered to pay them to run a training run anywhere. Are people really questioning why someone would travel to Rome. Ya'll really need to get out of your parents basements.

Anyway, fan of Jordan since she waved at me when we were both on the track during an early morning run. She runs beautifully.

Am keeping my mouth shut cause she's way faster than me. Anybody else that can't beat her, suggest you do the same.

Before crushing Chicago in 2017 she did the same type of workout within a half marathon at Rock n Roll Philly

She’s super fit, and I hope she runs well at Boston

Pathetic.

How can someone "weigh 150kg"? kgs are a quantity of mass not weight. And you're calling them a moron?
