Maxim Fastovsky 124 Posted July 11, 2016 #461 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Didnt get the chance this weekend to put the results but anyway so many big names ended up losing. Allyson Felix. Aries Merritt. Kendra Harrison. Johnny Dutch. Alyssa Montaño. Leo Manzano. Galen rupp (though will still run 10 and marathon so dont think there was reason to do the 5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galen rupp (though will still run 10 and marathon so dont think there was reason to do the 5) Probably for Felix her results in Eugene only improve her chance to win the 400m gold anyway Didn't see Harrison losing coming, but then again, women's hurdles in the US is so extremely strong, anything can happen...Dutch participates in probably the most random of all events, where someone can be world class one day and shitty next day, so that's just a matter of seeing how that day is, unfortunately for him. The worst loss in my opinion was Montaño, being tripped while on her way to having a very good chance to qualify If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,562 Posted July 13, 2016 #468 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) How come Jamaica has selected 4 athletes in certain sprint events without naming one of them as reserve or relay-only or something?
