Her social media and strava silence are well reported. It could obviously be somewhere in between, but what’s more likely? Is she locked in and ready to crush or will she drop out or pull out?
A) Dominate
B) DNS/DNF

Smack dab in the middle.
Not sure but I hope she qualifies.

Too much Molly Seidel obsession. She probably won’t medal again, not in the Olympics at least.
If she does dominate will all the haters present themselves for public shaming?
Why would it be one or the other? In Chicago she ran a type of race that would probably be 5th at the trials (behind a subset of Sisson, D'Amato, Saina, Hall, Vaughn, Rooker, maybe one other), so I could see her being right around there as well.
B
She will DNF. Give everybody the middle finger. Then proceed to go home devastated.
The marathon is tricky. She might have a great day and qualify or she might have a great day and not qualify. She could also have an off day. There are a lot permutations of possible outcomes. I would like to see her qualify.
Regardless of how she does, we can be sure of one thing: there will be Molly Seidel hate threads from the do-nothing chuckleheads.

I'm thinking she's going to run a smart race and finish 2nd or 3rd.
Kind of like her Tokyo bronze. She was there, the whole race, she was there until the end.
Will run as successful as in Chicago
C. Stay with the pack until about mi 22 and then fade to finish 5-6. 29 sub 2:30 women in this race. Race day weather will be manageable, but not at all fast. That will mean that it will be championship style racing and having the fastest PR will not guarantee a spot. Molly is the best racer in the field, but she probably is not back to 100% and the rest of the field is too good to give her a spot just based on resume.
Will finish third, behind Sisson and another party. Upon crossing the line, will be handed a glass vase of flowers adorned with a card. She'll hold aloft, just an angle where the contents can be only be deciphered by cropping 10,000 percent. A thorough inspection of individual pixels will commence before the answer is found: "With love, Letsrun."
She was on this podcast 6 days ago. (not sure when it was recorded)
If Molly is in good mental health and fit she will dominate. She already medaled in one of the hottest marathons facing international competition without dropping out. Too many of America's best are only good at running in ideal conditions. D'Amato and Molly will thrive in the warm weather. I'm expecting slow finishing times by all because most of the top runners whined enough and wanted the race start time to be catered to their needs rather than focusing on training and preparing for the worst. Molly has been transparent about her mental health but if she's in a good state of mind she'll dominate.
She could be top three easily, however she seems very fragile and is always fighting injuries, and always has that Kinesio tape on her knee, that is not a good look.
4th

Right. C. None of the above
