Olympic Trials 200m Finals-Allyson Felix

[@jchristianevans]

Allyson still made history in RIo :)

[@donfawcett8460]

She was injured significantly prior to olympics, and couldn't even put weight on her ankle. It was terrific rehab and her strength and will that brought her back to this level.

[@gns3185]

funny how this portend what was to happen in Rio. # the dive

[@4anuradha]

Allyson is a legend

[@lisas5297]

Damm we can only imagine.. had Allyson not been injured Trust Me she would have doubled gold 200m and 400m. 2012 and 2016 was her years. Lets pray she makes 2020.

[@rudraprashad]

I am a big fan of Allyson. This USATF 200m final result news in the morning IST made my entire day so bad that my thought was stopped as I am not going to see her in 200m Rio. 400m Gold was sure shot for her if she would have not been injured but 200 was kind of 50-50 since Elaine 21.78 was commendable. But one thing could be predicted well that Dafne would have got Bronze in this imaginary situation. I feel Allyson was never been lucky as being beaten by Veronica twice in Olympics, then injured and fell down on track 2013 Moscow and gave Shally-Ann an easy pass for Gold, 2016 Injured right before Olympic when her 60m timing was pretty good as 7.15 sec. Hoping to see her double Gold in 2021.

[@molonlabe9602]

Losing a race isn't a bad thing. She just lost in the 200 again this year. I hope she does well in the 400 in Tokyo.

[@sir3958]

@@molonlabe9602 She will be doing amazing in the 400. She didn’t even look like she was full on trying to make the team. && on top of that she would’ve had to pick between the 400 & 200 because of conflicting times, so it worked out either way

Allyson Felix has long been my hero. Toughness and grace.

[@kehara.e]

seeing gabby run now; wow she's improved so much

[@gns3185]

2012 go 2020 yep

[@kantricedorsey8142]

Allyson showed great heart, and she's just a class act! I know everyone wanted to see her run the 200m. but I actually enjoy watching her more in the 400m. To me it just shows how skillful and powerful of a runner she is. If she's healthy, she'll be in at least one relay. She will still be very busy in Rio! If we think about it, she's one of the few veteran Olympians who are returning to the games. No Sanya, Dee-Dee Trotter, Francena McCrory, Dawn Harper, and Carmelita Jeter wasn't even at the meet. Unfortunately it's a changing of the guard with a lot the newer runners coming up!

[@TheWorldNeedsSanitizing]

It's a changing off the guards around the world. VCB didn't make the 100m team either. These veterans are run out by the new comers who won't make the finals at the Olympics. Sad!

[@kantricedorsey5267]

+Kye- Paveman ...Yes the changing of the guard is inevitable, and we will have to embrace the newcomers and endure the growing pains they will go through. The London Games was really a great Olympics, in which I loved every minute of watching. It will definitely be different in Rio, but I just look forward to everyone competing at their best. With VCB since she's mainly been a 200m specialist the fact that she came in 4th in the 100m was still powerful. She's in her 30s and still putting it down. At least she'll be in the 200m and I'm sure the 4 x 100m relay. When I think of her she's like the energizer bunny. She may not always win, but she's always in the mix....she keeps going, and going, and going!

[@TheWorldNeedsSanitizing]

+Kantrice Dorsey. True. VCB is one off a kind. A true champion who will never be forgetton long after she retired. Respect due to her.

[@milsway99]

Yep. But Francena's 6th place gets her on the relay squad for Rio.

[@allfiner]

I think people forget that VCB is a 200m specialist who just happens to be really good at the 100m. She didn't make the 100m team in Beijing either but the newcomers who beat her in the trials did a clean sweep in the Olympic final, she then went on to get her gold medal in the 200. IMO that worked out perfectly. She then made the 100m team in 2012 and got her bronze against a really tough lineup. I almost feel as if VCB uses her losses as motivation for the future. I'm never too worried when she has an off year. She's a tremendous athlete and she knows how to rebound from misfortune.

[@torim3666]

My girl gave it her all and I enjoy that she fought to the very end. Let's focus on getting that 400m. I think if she get some speed work in she can get it one of those records. She is a true champ, she fought to the end.

[@ceasarcarcus391]

I'm really not seeing how Allyson Felix wasn't awarded this. a larger percentage of her body crossed the finish line during this tie.

[@theno.1judge595]

And she is a better runner than Prandini

[@frederickgrimes5002]

the judge it by whoever torso crosses first since prandini fell she is the winner

[@charlesbates3056]

I was thinking the same thing bro..... kept reviewing it , she was third

[@allfiner]

She wasn't third. The only part of the body that counts when crossing the line is the torso. Whoever gets their chest across first, wins. Doesn't matter if someone else has their hand, leg, head, neck, arm, shoulder across the line. If that chest doesn't make it to the line before the other person, none of that matters, which is why you see athletes deliberately do a nosedive for the line when they're losing. Between the momentum from running and acceleration when falling, usually gets their chest across the line faster than the person who runs for it. Like what happened here.

[@congero113]

Sore loser.

[@JustinDwaynee]

allyson felix and wade van niece are the greatest all around sprinters in history

[@macharris5642]

JeyRelentless Was, Now Tori moved into the Limelight with Miller & Tau Lu. Once severely injured it's hard to come back to top form.

[@ranhill62]

You won't find a bigger Felix fan than me. But I give the nod to Irina Prevalova of Russia (name spelling may be off a bit.) She was world class from 50m all the way up to 400. She's best known as a 100m and 200m sprinter, but unfortunately for her, she ran against likes of Ottey, Deavers, Ashford, Torrance, and Áaron. Like Felix, she was a mainstay on both the 4x1 and 4x4 relay teams. She finally got her individual gold medal in Sydney, running the 400m hurdles.

[@sakura_flower7]

i thought this was a race not who can dive at the line the best, miller uibo basically jumped to the line to deny allyson her gold in 400m

[@koolhandduke4087]

Allyson Felix is such a class act. She will be remembered so after her glorious career comes to an end. She congratulates Prandini and later Miller Uibo after their classless acts to dive for the finish line. Allyson too classy to do that. Foot race starts on the feet should end that way.

[@trackandfieldarchive]

It's legal. Prandini wanted it more. As for Shaune well she simply fell, but it was still legal. Allyson should have learnt from this.

[@koolhandduke4087]

@@trackandfieldarchive --You're right, it is legal, though it should'nt be. I suppose you're ok if this becomes widespread and change the Dynamics of the sport. Gladly Prandini hasn"t had any success since. Miller Uibo, a little more successful than Prandini but not much. I'm happy about that.

[@trackandfieldarchive]

@@koolhandduke4087 why are you hating on Prandini and Miller-Uibo? Just because they beat Allyson? That's rather spiteful. Are they supposed to apologise for beating her? Prandini had a great 2018 season and while she'll never be the best, she's still world-class. And Miller-Uibo has had more than just a little success. She ran 48.37 and was only beaten by Naser's 48.14. All power to them.

[@koolhandduke4087]

@@trackandfieldarchive --You can call it hating if you like. Truth is, I have little respect for the way they got their victory. That's as pleasant as I can put it for them. Let me hear your feelings on diving for the finish line becoming widespread.

[@trackandfieldarchive]

@@koolhandduke4087 It's not like this is the first time it's happened. David Neville did it to beat Chris Brown in 2008 for a bronze medal and nobody said anything. Jeff Porter made the US team in 2012 with a similar dive too. Seems people only cared when it was Allyson being beaten which is a bit of a double standard.

[@rickylopez2420]

Gabby Thomas 8 years before she would soon become 2024 200m Olympic champion. Running with some of the most legendary runners here to go alone their footsteps and become one herself

[@guitarpower27]

OMG THAT WAS MY REACTION TOO HAHA..But seriously still shocked!! All the best to Allyson in the 400m and 4x4, and hoping she gets speed work done to run in the 4x1

[@Fatima502]

Why isn't anyone criticising the US selection system ? Any other country in the world would recognise that a great athlete was gradually getting back to her best and give her a place in the team. Good luck to Jenna Prandini, but we saw what happened to her last year. 22.20 at the US Trials, then 22.87 when it mattered at the World Championships.

[@elderhardaway5674]

A Felix my favorite..to be fair she's getting older and been winning for a long time...

[@anthonyclarke2253]

Some may call it a changing of the guard. I think that would be a premature assessment. By her own admission, lack of speed work any the ankle injury played into her performance. She'll have another try for a medal next year at the WC in London. Focus on 400 this year then come back next year and do 200m.

[@kantricedorsey5267]

I wasn't just referring to Allyson in this regard, but was referencing the changing of the guard overall when it comes to who will be representing the US in Rio and beyond. I think if you look at the team going to Rio, the newcomers far outweigh the veterans. I don't think that's premature, I think that's reality!

[@kantricedorsey5267]

I think we are on the same page here Kye. I was asking Maurice that question so he could tell me his answer.

[@lewis20002000]

Exactly

[@lewis20002000]

I don't think she will get destroyed in the 400m, she is too talented and patient runner, but it time to start investing in younger runners like Bowi.

[@lewis20002000]

She is getting old thus the lost of speed and injury. Yes, focus on the 400m.

[@fritzd2116]

I don't understand this falling across the finish line stuff? Should be an automatic DQ, IMO.

[@Throw-ct7cv]

Nah can u judge intent? Also if she miss timed it it would have been a fail.

[@veraevans6387]

3:40. I had the volume up high when this came. I'm sure the neighbors thought somebody was getting killed in my house when this happened.

[@โกวิทย์วงศ์กุลบารมี]

[@jorgeluisjimenezmorveli4968]

Allison Felix, como siempre una grande corriendo, su fuerte es los 400 mts, espero que esté en las Olimpiadas de Tokio y cobre su revancha.

[@mauricehumphrey545]

Allyson, decimate the 400 meter world record in Rio, then come back for the WC's next year and go for the 200 meter record. I think Allyson has a good shot to win the 200 in 2020.

[@Andy9Rz]

She originally planned to retire after 2016, but decided to keep going. I can't help but feel that this is her last Olympic team.

[@mauricehumphrey545]

I hope not. I think she has enough to take gold in 2020 if she stays injury free.

[@milsway99]

She will be 34 in 2020. I doubt she'll want to push her ageing body as an elite athlete for 4 more years. We have a 22 year old Bahamian already running 49.6 and 49.5 in Shaunae Miller. Felix can probably handle her this year, and maybe even next. But the general trend is that Shaunae will get stronger and Felix will not. That being said, Felix has zero more to prove. Imho...she is the GOAT.

[@mauricehumphrey545]

I agree with you 100% on that.

[@orbertobadia5610]

[@misak7349]

Even at her age, she's still holding her own against these new fresh runners

[@granvillewalkerjr.8394]

Asia my sister, I feel your pain. It is difficult to watch a hampered superstar underperform like that. And despite her handicap, she still nearly pulled it off. Tori did what she had to do, and was only able to salvage a bronze medal in the Olympic final. Second place ran the race of her life, and third was decided by a desperation lean. Like the Terminator, "She'll be back".

[@jaesprint5702]

Wayne W. Carey She's a big favorite to win the 400, she might go sub 49

[@PEN-N-PAL]

Um, she has an ankle injury buddy, which means she hasn't trained for the 200m and still could have made the team. Given time to heal and train for the Olympics, she would have been in contention for a metal in Rio.

[@GlimmerOfLight]

I am a huge Allyson Felix fan, but look at the 200 m final in Rio, not long after the event here. Hindsight is 20/20, but the comment at the end of the video is right on. Felix did best by focusing on the 400 m. She may not have even medaled in the 200 m.
