I don't think that the McNeal case shows that at all. McNeal did NOT test positive for a banned substance, Houlihan did. So that's a very different situation....

The women's 800 heat sheets are out. What is normally 32 women (4 heats of 8 women) grew this year to 46 women (5 heats of 9/10 women). But since 3 scratched...

I'm surprised. Three of you just said you think McLaughlin will break the world record at the trials. Here is why I think she won't - She won't even try....

I think that's the last we'll see of Brazier for a while. He needs to take some time off to focus on getting 100% healthy for next year's World Championships,...

Sha'Carri Richardson seems to get feisty in 2 situations - When the camera is on her, and when someone tells her something that she doesn't like.

Keep in mind that at any future Olympics/World Championships Mu and McLaughlin would have at least 3 races in their legs the week of the 4x400. (Maybe...

The only way the women's world record in the 4x400 gets broken is if you magically had peak Richards-Ross, peak Felix, peak McLaughlin, and peak Mu all...

[RunningInCircles]

Yes. I think it's hard to justify kicking one of the top three 400 finishers at the Olympic Trials out of the final of the Olympic 4x400, unless they...

Did anyone hear what Jewett said at his press conference after he made the Olympic team?

“I have a 10 page essay due tonight. I’m mentally...

[RunningInCircles]

I agree. That's really annoying. I'm used to major races showing everyone in the race, plus some things about each athlete, like SB and PB. Yes, I know...

[RunningInCircles]

14 times? That's nothing. You'll probably see Simone Biles at least 100 times in commercials between now and the Olympics. Makes sense for advertisers....

[RunningInCircles]

I'm not surprised at all that Richardson is getting more attention than Felix. Felix has a pretty normal personality and Richardson is an unusual type...

[RunningInCircles]

To me that was the biggest surprise of the race. Julia Heymach dropping her PB 5 seconds from 4:09.89 at Regionals down to 4:04:84 was very impressive....

[RunningInCircles]

None of the above. Jenny Simpson will continue running the 1500 and try to qualify for next year's World Championships....

Schweizer started looking up at the big screen regularly starting with 120 meters to go. Schweizer knew exactly where Cranny was and let her through....

Shae Anderson is coming along nicely in the flat 400, but her hurdling still needs a bit of work. Her 55.21 at this year's PAC-12 was the only time that...

Olympic Trials ticket holders got an email on April 22 that said - Your tickets are no longer valid. We'll be refunding your money. If we do eventually...

[RunningInCircles]

Yes, it's the 2nd part of her 1st name that bothers her when it gets mispronounced. Sha'Carri herself often doesn't even use the "Sha" part....

[RunningInCircles]

Yes, but that's different. TeeTee Terry has already graduated. So there's no more classes for her to announce that she's taking....

[RunningInCircles]

Yes, Athing Mu could stay and train at Texas A&M. But the way she worded her announcement about going pro was a "Thanks for the memories, it's...
