These names sound like an episode of Star Trek.
It’s unbelievable how tough the Olympic standard is in this event the women’s 50000. She’s the best ever. A 5X college champion, and she had to run a PR, essentially a college all time record JUST to meet the standard. Other events don’t have Olympic standards that are nearly this tough. There are multiple times college and high schoolers have managed to qualify in other events.
Vernon is a class act.
I would say very impressive! She as the unofficial pace setter was in my view a major player in the new Olympic record being set, as im guessing the pace would not have gone this hard if Valby haden't hammerd it! Way to go girl!!
Some of these comments 🤮
Definitely didn’t fall short he is amazing his time is coming
Congratulations cuzzn.. sending positivity and prayers your way 🎊🎊❤️
🕵️♂️ The Lesson is That She Needs To Go All Out For the 1st 600m and Then Gut Out the Last 200m! Bury the Competition in the Finals! 🏃♂️
Did he actually say "he fell short"?? The kid just turned 16 and ran with the world's fastest in record time and "he fell short?" That's ridiculous
What the heck is wrong with these comments!! All of a sudden , we have a panel of athletic experts here-NOT. Blaming an Olympic champion in MU, like she never ran in her life is beyond pathetic. Just Say something Good or Just Don’t say anything!
I’ve watched him since he’s been in Junior College, he’s ran 44 mid for a while. Now he’s opening the door to 43. Won’t be surprised if he does it at the Olympics.
Huge fan of Allie’s!!!
What an amazing young woman. And to graciously deal with all the dumb questions after finishing fourth, very classy. And she paced them for almost the entire race. Well done.
Breaking down his own craft intelligently, some 30 year old pros can’t even do that. He is great
I just love this kid
16 and breaking down is own craft, that is great
Poise and class !
This is one of the more obvious doping cases. I think it is a family affair. But every US doper gets embraced by gullible fans.
26 … no more parents insurance…. step up USATF
Totally a learning experience for Mu, long strides in a crowd can be disaster
Not learning this isn’t her first time
"Rubbing is racing" -Harry Hogge
_DUN IT DELIBERATE!!!_
We're all so proud of you, Q!
No Mu no gold for USA in Paris 2024...no way...USA need think twice..or she to represent Sudan and win gold in Paris....😂😂
Every right to feel "pissed". Mu's error cost her any chance and may have prevented several athletes from doing their best.
@@peterbrown216 Let's play the blame game, right?
Of course, blame someone else and forget that the best runner on the track also missed out because of what happened... 🤡
She’s finding someone to blame. Her times weren’t strong enough to make the team. Plus, she was in the back
You did your best, and I am happy for you. Love you Vernon.
We only care to beat you Holloway 🇯🇲
I like his mindset, switching focus to the 5 and not dwelling on this one. Was a tall task going in to this with how good Cole, Yared, and Hobbs have been. Rooting for Cooper, Grant, and Cole in the 5!
I love this athlete 🇺🇲🇯🇲😅😂
You done good, Coach! Don't sell yourself short. Quincy is a product of your coaching and you both have so much to be proud of.
Pride comes before a fall.
Athing Mu's race tactics remind me of Brenda Martinez. Brenda was always playing in crowds and stumbling over stuff in races. That's just bad Juju and it tempts Fate and Nemesis.
I appreciate Michael Norman's comments on accountability for his performance and his commitment to improving it. His issue stemmed from not being challenged in previous meets, and he needs to make some adjustments, which I hope will work. His competitors in Paris will be much more challenging than what he experienced on Monday, but as long as he runs each heat as if it were a final-like Grant Holloway, Sydney McLaughlin, and Levrone-he will be just fine. Bring home the gold, Michael!
She taught me how to properly B skip! So happy for her
She sounds so chill... but you KNOW that it eats her up to come 4th. Her compete level is through the roof. I wonder if she will run some 1500 races? Just to get a feel for the pace? Her 3 best races at 5K indoor and outdoor all within one second ... that is her limit now... but not for much longer.
She may have hit her plateau. She ran 14:52 indoors and didn't improve much on it. With her current training of 25-40 miles per week and using an arc trainer she will not get the aerobic strength she'll need to push into the elite level. These elite women are hitting 90 to 100 miles per week and at a greater intensity. Her training is sufficient against college runners but not much further. And it's tough too because running at higher mileage and intensity increases the risk of injury and staleness.
Congratulations to Coach Lee and Quincy
Love the energy with Quincy in the booth!
These reporters have never run a race in their lives 😂
Must have got the job because they had a degree in journalism 😂!
Max effort, if she keeps on progressing, she will be in the team 5000m in 2028 Olympics.
oh well.......was this woman favored or something???
The best part is there should not have been any pressure on him like he said in one of his interviews! No one knows anything about him! So whatever he did or didn’t do it’s still good! No one said anything bad about him! So not sure why you are saying about pressure! Only what we put on ourselves! He’s 16 he has a lot more track left ahead of him!
As a 47 year old father, I'm thrilled to see that Quincy has this man in his life, not because of the great coach he is, but because of the human being he is.
There is never any doubt who the best runner in a race is if you lead the race and win. I admire an athelete that has the balls to lead and try to win the race. Running the legs off those sit and kickers is the hardest way to win a race. BTW the race was amazing and the finish was a true battle.
Huge congrats Chari, and best wishes in Paris--do some damage!!
Amazing, I thought he was an insperating person. Seeing a young man break his record doesn't take away from his greatness.✌🏿
That was so heart breaking 💔 for Athing Mu 😭
Same thing happened to Marry Decker. But we got over it.
The high school boy has become a running man.
What a rock star So proud of you Chari We will cheering from Salmon Idaho for you
I'm so proud of this young man. You are my champion 🏆
I was rooting for her… she pulled the others along for so long. Sad to see her passed at the end. Great job PV.
