She did really well, but this again raises the question, why do the message boards constantly fill up with arguments about runners who are not the best while ignoring the ones who actually win? Here are some of those who won: Taylor Roe, Courtney Wayment, Micaela Degenero, and Lindsey Butler, the distance winners on the women's side, and Abdi Nur (3k-5k double), Mario Garcia Romo, and Brandon Miller, the distance winners on the men's side. Add in the Texas and Arkansas dmr's. Hardly a word said about the lot of them, maybe a little about Nur and that's about it.

then you can make a thread about it .. why cry on here? this is a tuohy thread
You are incorrect. 99% of elite athletes would rather win one title and finish last in the other event than win neither. Tuohy has stated that she runs to win. Winners view 2nd as a loss. You obviously are not an elite athlete. Wayment was national champion and 2 time AA in the meet while Tuohy was just 2 time AA.

i mean .. katelyns 19, wayments what .. 24 on her sixth year of college running
title is about her .. ofc people would talk about her.. and for the other threads, i guess more people just wants to talk about kt and her performance .. it is impressive.. given her circumstances for the past year and months .. just minus the future predictions
roe was not running faster than tuohy in the last 600 meters, katelyn was running the fastest, 32,32,31 ... but roe's early surge+ no one in the front going w her which made tuohy stuck /// gave her the cushion and the win ... if katelyn was in gregory's place she would have taken down roe .. and thats a factual opinion .. based on her speed adn roe's speed
How was her last 800? They don’t give awards for best kick. This was a 3000 meter race. Roe took a very big risk and it paid off with the win. It made for an exciting race instead of just another forgettable field kicking for the last 2-400.
If the only thing you can see about this race is someone kicking for second and what they might do in the future, you are missing out on the great racing happening now. Nothing in the future is guaranteed, life can easily derail the best laid plans.
Tuohy was faster than Wayment 4 years ago but now Wayment is faster than her. Those are facts that you seem to want to avoid. Wayment has made much greater improvements over that period of time. Anyone who follows running would look at their trajectories and predict that Wayment will continue to improve more than Tuohy. Give the data to someone and strip away the names and just list the years and times and ask them to predict times for the runners over the next 5 years.

tuohy was inside the rail when roe surged.. no one in katelyn's pack went with roe.. the pack didnt move, katelyn was boxed out // roe's early surge was the one that made her win and the fact that no one went w her other than tuohy after coming out of the traffic.. she ran in lane 2 for a lap and half.. impressive running, few mistakes, many lessons learned

wayment at 19 was running 16:30 5000ms
Ok you gotta chill on the age thing. Wayment is currently 23. She's the same age that Tuohy will be if Tuohy decides to use all her remaining years of eligibility.

If you are a high school phenom and nearly win two NCAA titles at age 19 (with COVID/injury-interrupted training) you will get talked about. The same would happen with Natalie Cook, Nico, Sahlman it doesn't matter.
In terms of the broader picture, Abdi Nur is worthy of some discussion and he got some. Brandon Miller generally is but running 1:47 against a weak field doesn't do much for anyone. The rest of the performances were by more seasoned athletes (many 22+) and weren't that notable by NCAA standards.
shes 24 ofc shes faster .. good for her .. she graduates .. i only watch college running .. bye wayment
So will you stop watching KT when she goes pro?
KT had a great race, especially after her recent sickness or injury or whatever. She obviously has a bright future ahead and I wish her the best and will cheer for her. But Wayment had the better race today and has shown more improvement over the last couple of years
