JORDAN!!! HSR

so she made the trials finals in the 1500 with a PR and HSR of 4:14.50, beating many pros and a simply amazing performance! amazing race to watch!!

yeah, it was, she's a beast
She was in like last in the first lap.
And to come in 5th, woooooowwww.

I thought it was 4:14.

she didn't even think she would make it.

So did I.

it was 4:14.50

can she make it out?

ehhh i doubt it but if she really really wanted it and pushed herself i think she might be able to..she would have to have a big pr though and they would have to be a little on the slow side. obviously shannon rowbury's gonna win it sara hall and erin donohue should be up there too..hmm idk i doubt it but i don't want to completely count her out.

oh yeah and carrie tollefson geeze..hmm it would be quite something if she did.

EDIT: Carrie didn't make it through.

oops, i fixed it. i wasnt fully awake when i wrote that

and it will be quite difficult for her to actually make it to the olympics because she would have to
1) beat out the nations best milers to place in the top 3
2) PR by a ton to get the A standard
so to do so shed have to run 4:09 ish. very fast, but anything can happen

Very inspirational i think im in love . i only thought about her race on my run this morning.i thought babcock would beat her

i didn't think babcock would beat her for some reason..idk why. i didn't think she'd make it to the finals though.

Only if she cuts her hair. That thing must add AT LEAST 3 seconds.

^seriously, that would send her to beijing no questions asked

hahaha +120982304

i was watching it last night with my mom and she had never seen/heard of jordan before and the first thing she said was "that girl needs to cut her hair" and after the race "she would have won if she cut off her hair"

seriously though, my hair is a big enough pain and its a few inches below my shoulders.

Watching it there was amazing. The crowd was buzzing. They started chanting "Come to Oregon" at the end. It was a very smart race, I've never seen her not try to lead before, at least not that I remember. I think that was the type of strategy she neeeded today. Did you hear she almost didn't get to run it? I heard that she was ordered to leave for her flight for world jr's and her coach had to petition. I'm so happy she could stay. I saw her the other day on the streets. I almost shouted good luck.

simply put shes amazing

yeahh lol. she should cut her hair...my brother was saying how he thinks christain smith should pull a fam and shave all of his chest hair and head and legs and everything for the olympics. that would be so funny.

tough race for her today,but still amazing that she made it this far!

Im envious and impressed
IM gonna ask her to marry me [dont mean 2 sound creepy]
