American women may as well just quit the marathon. None of them will ever get close to sub 2:18.
Why is this? All the american athletes playing volleyball, basketball, soccer? Are there not as many opportunities in team sports throughout the rest of the world?

You sound like a 28 minute 5k hobbyjogger who is clueless about anything outside of the blackbox shell that you live in "LET'S PICK ON THE INNOCENT ELITE FEMALE RUNNER WHO OBVIOUSLY HAD AN ISSUE DURING THE RACE". Yeah, you're a real bright one aren't you?

I would say she had a major malfunction with her hamstring and is obviously not acting, that's a distraught young lady who is clearly upset. To pick on her on this website is a bloody shame. To bring up doping is sick and cruel. I've had my say more than once now on this thread, enjoy trashing her to make yourselves feel better. Zero proof low class losers.
Hasay is just a female Galen. Cheaty cheaterson.

She repeatedly said she was 100% healthy going into this. Then apparently gets a hamstring strain after 2 miles at MP. That is obviously just an excuse, we can think about what the real reason why she wasn't able to perform was but it definitely had nothing to do with her hamstring.

Sure thing Phil, that looks like an excuse on her face. Last in line for the logic train, eh?
She's the first person in the history of Elite runners to ever have something happening during a race.
If she had said that she had a hamstring issue, you would have called it a pre-race excuse for the inevitable.
She can't win either way, but you're still a soulless maggot.

What does her face have to do with the reason of why she dropped out? There could be hundred's of reasons why she was sad and crying. For example, she just lost her mentor and coach for over a decade that she had a daughter-father relationship with and was hugely responsible for her success. You think she can just go to Chicago, pretend nothing happened and operate at her peak? The REASON she is giving us for her dropout, is fake/made up. No one is attacking her because she did what she did, but she should have been honest instead of making up this hamstring injury.
Ok maybe it wasn’t a hamstring. You want her to say I had a mental breakdown? Would that make everyone happy? No it wouldn’t. She was obviously in a lot of pain one way or the other already so not sure why piling on and wishing harm on her or anyone else is the way to go. If she’s dirty they will figure it out. I am sure she is under the microscope even more now. Not sure how she comes back from this.
She couldn’t be honest if she wanted her pay check and it’s not like honesty is her thing,
Are you on the other threads defending NOP , Salazar and the athletes or just Hasay. They didn’t take down the thread when you complained the first 30 times snowflake.
None of the athletes are going to be prosecuted that was made clear in the released 140 page packet so no, they won’t be hit with suspensions.
If she had to drop out because of a hamstring injury I feel bad for her. I wouldn't wish an injury onto anyone.
If she had to drop out because of a panic attack from the questions that have arisen the last two weeks, I don't feel bad for her at all.
Obviously she is depressed. Which is what we would expect.
To some people here, that is a reason to gloat. Maybe they hate their lives?
You all realize that a potential hamstring injury and her look of being upset/crying/anxiety attack don’t have to be mutually exclusive, right?
With all the BS this woman has had to put up with since that Salazar news, she probably needed this race as something positive to focus on/direct her energy.
So she’s finally ready to go, get to have her mind on JUST racing for 2+ hours, and then ~10-11 min even that all comes crashing down. That look of anger, sadness, frustration, and panic looks like the end result of all that crap finally come to a head.
Especially if you look back further, this girl has lost her mother, can some pretty crazy professional peaks and valleys, spends all that time under public suspicion bc of her training group, then loses (for all intents and purposes) a father figure who probably helped her through a lot of those hardships, so to have her Chicago race blow up? That’s called a breaking point.
She’s human. She’s allowed.
....and before the LR grammar/spelling task force rips apart my last post, you all know what I mean in spite of the typos. Ugh iPhone posting.
She lost her right to any sympathy the moment she signed with oregon.
I don't know what "she's allowed" is supposed to mean.
I don't feel bad for the added suspicion, scrutiny and questions that Jordan has had to deal with the last couple of weeks.

You are a female.

Not really. But she will have to resort to microdosing because USADA would love to catch her.
For me the Villains in this will always be (1) Nike's greedy Board of Directors, and (2) Sebastian Coe. It's fascinating and unforgiving how such powerful people can take a brilliant high school runner and her to use her for their own financial gain. Nike is more than happy to feed the hungry animal named GREED. Sebastian Coe definitely picked his timing for the announcement of banning Alberto Salazar. But Coe was focused on disrupting the performances of the male competitors in the World Championships. And US anti-doping and WADA were using Kara Goucher to paint themselves as empathetic defenders of women and right. But they didn't see this one coming. They sure as hell weren't thinking about it. But make no mistake. When you look at that picture of Jordan Hasay about to drop out, and you see the hurt on her face, you need to see the villains who used her. Missing from that picture are NIKE and Sebastian Coe. P.S. Where is the empathetic post from El Keniano? Add him to the list.

Jordan Hasay was a DNF in Chicago today after recording a 5k split of 22:20 (7:11 pace/mile) which is on pace for 3:08:28.
Very unexpected as pre-race she was talking about the American record and working with Betsy Saina to go out at 70:00 for the half.
