Tuohy chose the right school if her goal is to become a professional runner. But if she has 40 years to work a real job after running, it probably wasn't the best choice. Any high school guidance counselor would tell you that. It is not a controversial statement. I guess that she may be one of the lucky ones who has a nice pro career and then finds a way to turn that into a post running career in the sport. Ritz is doing it. Shalene is doing it.

I would suggest you heed your own words of advice and not turn "non Tuohy" threads into "Tuohy" threads.
pretty sure u hated these elitist too on these threads nonstop talking about stanford> llol
You are correct they were off topic. And in general I am not a big fan of "elites". There's an old saying. "You can always tell a Harvard man, but you can't tell him very much".
I'd be happy if all threads stayed on topic. And yes, your question and my post are off topic.

Saying NC State is a better running school than Rutgers is not controversial and it is not elitist. If somebody recommended a top runner attend Rutgers, you would tell them that it is a bad decisin and you would list the top running schools. Does that make you elitist? Academics come first for 99% of students. Sthletics come first for 1% of students. Plenty of people provide advice to top athletes regarding school choice.

Housing Costs in California:
In March 2020, median home prices in California were more than $600,000—nearly 88% higher than the national median of $320,000! Meanwhile, the median monthly rent for a two-bedroom apartment was almost $1,900—about 55% higher than the national median of $1,200.You better make more money if you go to college in Cali and plan on living there.

Where you attend college and where you work and reside afterward are unrelated. Using your silly logic, everyone should attend college in a very low cost of living area.

I got my undergrad degree at Michigan and masters at ND. I have a son at ND and another at Princeton. Both have 4.0 GPAs. I have a pretty good idea about academic achievement. I don't know how smart she is but she made a decision to attend an average D1 school. You are free to list the average ACT scores of 300 schools that have track and you will see that NC State is not in the top 20%. It technically is above the average but that logic says that 50% are above.
Your insecurities are showing

I doubt you really believe that or you wouldn't point it out. Imagine if somebody is overweight and is sensitive about it and you point it out. Imagine if somebody has a disability and you point it out. Imagine if somebody is poor and you point it out. Pointing out an emotional insecurity is very dangerous.

none. She has to want the hardest title of them all to win XC.

I would guess she’ll either:
A) join Elly Henes at Mike Smith’s group with Rachel Schneider
B) in Courtney Wayments post about finighing her NCAA career she said something about not ending her time with Diljeet Taylor, and alluded to some kind of announcement or developping coming. I could see Taylor starting a pro group with Wayment, Camp, Orton and some other non BYU people, and ai could see Tuohy going ther3
C) Laurie Henes does essentially the same thing as what Taylor does in the scenario above, and Tuoht stays where she is
and an outside shot she goes to Pete Julian because she has always said Jordan Hasay is her idol

I think a) is most likely, but could also see maybe linking up with New Balance Boston (closer to home an appealing factor?). I guess I'd be a bit surprised by C) because her own daughter is a pro who ran for her at NC State and then went to join Mike Smith's group.

katelyn tuohy joins diljeet taylor and byu runners in provo ?? what?

Admittedly she has said that she has a lot of role models, and I'd think she'd be more likely to join women she's friends with than chase after someone who's significantly older than her

Tuohy will finish her college career as she will earn just as much as the pros while in the NCAA.
