on the video, she was right behind Tuohy around the 1 k mark until about 2.5 k....a lot of it was when the green slashes were on screen. But it was definately Dudek....unless I am blind....and that is not impossible either!!
At that point Dudek was near the front of the chase pack...still wasn't limping...but did look like she was struggling...which is not like her at all.
It was.
The Stanford No 1 was the one that collapsed at the finish line and may have been injured judging from her approach to the line.
In the NCAA there is one big national meet and that is for all the marbles. Injury or an inconveniently timed bad race and that's your season, fair or not.
Oh wow the winners scored under a hundred! Who could have predicted that? There's no way we could have known that would happen, except it's happened in 90% of recent races!
Wow what a shocker!
Oh golly gee NC State was way under 200! And one of their top Runners was 60 points back from where she could have been! is no way we could have had any idea NC State would break 200
****
Also the NC state coach obviously knows what she's doing. She was an awesome Runner. She's helped train her daughter into being a top three National Runner and she's helped train chmiel and Tuohy into awesome starts to their career
With all the talk about the up and comers, does anyone know if Starcher has been running at all?
Yeah I knew Kelsey chmiel was going to do great. She's an awesome cross country Runner. And she just PR this season at 5K. Surprised so many people were doubting her. Also Steelman ran great. Clermont was the unknown and obviously way back from where she could have been. Tuohy looks like she's getting stronger

Starcher has been Stanfords 7th runner pretty much all year....but way back

Dudek was never right behind Tuohy. If you look at the results page, they have the splits for each k. She looked awful at the 800 meter mark.
went back and watched the video again to see if I was smoking drugs...defiantly she was a few runners directly behind Tuohy at the 1k, and then was right behind her for a while at around 1.5k. She didn't look injured at this point.
I'm not saying she wasn't injured...but she didn't look like it early on.
Be interesting to hear if anything gets said from Stanford.

I also noticed Dudek on Touhy's heels early on too. I thought that was going to get interesting, but then suddenly Dudek was gone.
She was close for about 3k.
Is Starliper still hurt? I haven’t seen anything on her at all this last XC season.
Dudek if she was running well could have maybe crack the top 20. But it was crazy to predict she was going to win. I mean it wasn't physically impossible but incredibly unlikely
The craziest prediction was the three girls going to break 9:30 in the 2-mile this season. It's basically physically impossible for the current group of high school Runners to do that. So far one girl has broken 950. To say three girls are going to PR like over 20 seconds from where they've been for the last two or three years is just Looney Tunes
I don't mean to be a hater. I'm rooting for everyone to do well. But if we're going to make predictions that are so outlandish it kind of takes the fun out of it it's like what's the point if we're just going live in la la land

I don't know I saw on Instagram that she does an awesome kiss impression. And I think she rocks out on guitar. But haven't seen anything of her running. She doesn't really post much. It's weird because I don't think she was at all injured in high school and looks like the same exact Runner every year. I'd imagine she'll be back and running really good. Also Claire Walters is another Runner who should be good
There have been 9:44, 9:47, and 9:51 already this year and Hutchins hasn't run yet. 9:30 seems a bit of a stretch but Hutchins is quite a runner.
What an incredible run for Tynissmaa. I remember the article about her in 8th grade when she was battling Tourette's and how running helped her. What a story.

You can't convert a 5K to a 2-mile and call it the person ran that. It doesn't work like that. It's a fantasy land prediction. Brown has been sub 10 minutes for the last 2 years. She's gained 5 seconds in the last 2 years. She's going to gain 21 seconds in a few months. Thorvaldsen is going to gain 18 seconds when she just ran 7 Seconds slower a month later. She now has 25 seconds to gain. Hutchins didn't even run indoor
Once you start training for track you're going to do a lot of distances and not just specialized in distance running. I'm sure these girls will be running everything from the 800 through the 2 miles so they're two mile times actually might get slower. No one's going to improve by 20 seconds in one season. And no no no no three runners are going to do it.

Sure bro! Nice job with be over a hundred Point prediction, Dudek wins prediction, and 9:30 2 Mile prediction
I remember reading this too. What an inspiring story! From looking at Milesplit results it appears she has dropped huge amounts of time in track events from high school. From a 4:56 mile to a 4:33. Was she just undertrained in high school?Multi sport athlete? Better training situation now?

At 9:54 in the YouTube broadcast Dudek is right there. I think it's just before the 3K mark . She's right behind Clairmont at NC State probably somewhere around 30th. Also at 3:15 and I think 5:15. She was right behind Tuohy. Anyway after the 954 in the YouTube broadcast she must really fall off because she went from somewhere around maybe 40th, to 151. She definitely seem to be running fine form wise.

Walters wasn’t in the top 7 for NC State this year.
Also don’t forget about Brooke Rauber.
